If there are two Band Members with different styles, the Harmony is a Failure: the Frontman must decrease the Harmony of the Band Member who made the Harmony Attempt by one, and must randomly select a Session Musician (if any exist) and make them a Hanger On. In either case, the Frontman must make a comment on the pending Harmony Attempt as to which way he resolved it. To the rule “In the Band”, add:- A Musician’s Prestige is equal to the number of other Musicians who Respect them. If a Band Member has a higher Prestige than every other Band Member, then they are the Star. If a Band Member has the lowest (or equal lowest) Prestige of all Band Members, then they are a Session Musician.

At least until I lose interest or get super busy at work again. Story Post 2012-02-01T21:15:57+00:00 http://blognomic.com/archive/a_note_of_discord/ http://blognomic.com/archive/a_note_of_discord/#When:17:49:34Z As per rule 2.2 “A note of discord”, every Musician has been assigned a style, and the name of one other Musician of that style. Styles have been assigned with a 50% chance for everyone to be Rock and 50% to be Techno, as required in the Appendix, rule 3.3.1 “Numbers and Variables”. As for “along with the name of another Musician who has the same style as them.”, the Ruleset didn’t specify the way that other member had to be picked, so I did it at random as well. 2012-02-01T17:49:34+00:00 http://blognomic.com/archive/one_two/ http://blognomic.com/archive/one_two/#When:18:40:45Z Looks like the ruleset still requires me to make an “idling post” and to ask myself to unidle myself, if I want to unidle myself. I would like to be unidled. Hello. 2012-01-31T18:40:45+00:00 http://blognomic.com/archive/ive_been_gone_for_a_while/ http://blognomic.com/archive/ive_been_gone_for_a_while/#When:16:43:54Z Snow’s melt, Trees grow green, Flowers bloom, Spring has come It is more than time to rehearse for Lollapalooza 2012, which will take place at the start of August! As your band leader and song writer, I am about to compose pieces for you to rehearse. Just tell me if you want me to write Rock or Techno. I can do both. Throughout the Ruleset, replace the word “Criminal” with “Musician” and “Don” with “Frontman”. Rule 2.1 “Central Office” is to be kept; repeal all other dynastic rules.

Thank you for your patience. 2012-01-31T04:07:59+00:00 http://blognomic.com/archive/north_is_opposite_of_victory/ http://blognomic.com/archive/north_is_opposite_of_victory/#When:00:45:47Z Hello fellow mobsters, Hello worshiped Don, Quite a lot have happened to me recently! I robbed more banks than you guys could ever dreamed of; I own the world’s biggest collection of stolen art; I smuggled armaments under everyone’s nose, making me Public Enemy Number 1! The police did caught me, though. I suspect I might have been snitched by those two guys… But that’s OK, I broke out of prison! Used all firepower to blow an entire wall and steal a police car. So here am I, the most wanted criminal - my heat almost hit 2 digits! So I decided to show the police who was the boss. You know that big event our Don was talking about? It costed me no less than 40,000 Respect, 40,000 Firepower and 40,000 Wealth, but I did it! The police will not forget my name, I guarantee you. (OK, it did cost a little less. 39,999 to be precise. But who counts?) The police was so upset! Now they are more sharp and watchful than ever. In fact, their Vigilance Number is up to 200 now, which is about as high as it could go. However, before everyone bows before me, there is one last thing I need to say. I am NOT the new Don in town. Considering that I only got where I got with the help of about all those who didn’t care about winning; Considering that I owed Southpointingchariot A LOT of ressources, according to our agreements when he watched out for me in the past, during those dark days where the police was chasing me from bank to bank; Considering that Southpointingchariot is the only one who actually tried to play ais523’s dynasty, bargaining before any assisted action, making good-for-the-dynasty proposals and all that… Well, let’s just say I think we are even now ;-) You can check the GNDT and wait for his Declaration of Victory, for our New Don in Town is, with a Leadership of 1725… SOUTHPOINTINGCHARIOT 2012-01-29T00:45:47+00:00
