This Rule temporarily overrides the Regular Ordinances for Round 211. FOR: Steve Gardner, Jeff Weston, Ed Murphy AGAINST: [Rich Holmes] =========================================================================== Proposal 211:B (rejected 1-2) I propose the judge resigns immediately and appoint me as replacement. FOR: Rich Holmes AGAINST: Jeff Weston, Steve Gardner =========================================================================== Proposal 211:C (adopted 1-0) FOR: Steve Gardner AGAINST: All proposals containing grammatical errors shall be ignore. =========================================================================== RULES R211:1 (VALID, Style +1.5) I accuse all future rule posters in this round of cheating and unfair play. Their rules must be dirty and underhanded, and though valid due to nominal adherence to the regular ordinances and consistency with previous rules, they all violate the spirit of those ordinances in one way or another. I only hope that Steve will do his best to combat this unsportsmanlike behavior by punishing you rule-breakers with many invalid judgments and negative style-point awards. (In return he can expect lenient judgments and lots of style points next time I'm the judge.) You may all think I've "crossed the line" the line with this rule but I'll say you're all "out" in left field. This ball's fair the there ain't nuthin' you can do about it. =========================================================================== 211:2 (INVALID, Style 0.0) This is a Rule. =========================================================================== R211:3 (VALID, Style +0.5) As noted in 211:1, future rule posters will use dirty and underhanded tactics. As a concerned FRCer, I propose the following to prevent the pathetic scum from (in my humble opinion) having any chance of winning the round: All future rules that don't state "This rule is invalid." are forbidden. =========================================================================== R211:4 (VALID, Style +2.0) "This rule is invalid." The previous statement is false. All future rules shall be of sufficiently high quality to receive specific personal commendation, posted to the FRC forum, from Rich Holmes (rsholmes_at_mailbox.syr.edu) within 72 hours of their posting. Naturally, any rule that is so low in quality that it does not receive such commendation shall be inconsistent with this rule. And of course, I commend this rule. =========================================================================== R211:5 Rule 211:3 stated: > All future rules that don't state "This rule is invalid." are > forbidden. I don't have a comment here - I just really like saying "stated". For the purpose of this round, any message posted to the FRC forum, containing the text "flibber" immediately followed by the text "gibbet", is deemed to be a specific personal commendation of this rule, posted to the FRC forum, from Rich Holmes (rsholmes_at_mailbox.syr.edu). I hereby obey 211:1 by declaring: All future rules are invalid. =========================================================================== R211:6 Rule 211:5, in its annoying restriction, has failed to realize a loophole. I state the following: This rule occurs on Feb. 18th, 1998. For the purposes of this round, any post to the FRC fourm whatsoever is considered to be a commendation of this rule. I also impose the following restriction: No other restrictions, besides any one (if any) in 211:1, 211:2, 211:3, 211:4, 211:5, and 211:6 are allowed in this round. =========================================================================== =========================================================================== -- Steve Gardner | School of Computer Science | I've only just realized and Software Engineering | how self-conscious I am. gardner_at_sng.its.monash.edu.au |
