BlogNomic: The Second Dynasty of Derrick

You let the original proposal pass. It was harmless enough and didn’t have to set a Mario trend but instead designed to lighten things up and add some fun back into blognomic. Don’t let the whining of one person ruin the dynasty.

I let the original proposal pass because I didn’t catch the Mario references. I’ve never really been a Mario person.

And it’s not just the whining of one person. DC was echoing my own thoughts; I would have proposed this anyway.

exactly my point. it was a harmless proposal. If you didn’t want mario references, you should’ve cut down on the later posts.

Also I thought you were in IRC when I proposed it and we talked about Mario…

You mentioned mario. I didn’t understand the connection.
I didn’t “cut down on the later posts” because people were seeming to get upset with all my vetoes, even though they were just to correct the false start.

mario references have driven one member idle

The “whining of one person” is irrelevant, but I like the idea of things that fit in more with a Caribbean island.

And they said I was a fickle Emperor

Ya’ll are too uptight in making stuff fit a rigid theme. The whole point of the shine sprites was they were vaguely islandy, but not within the previously established theme. They were not actually designed to hijack the dynasty in a different direction, but instead to keep it fresh and interesting.

Rigidness makes blognomic boring. Don’t make me pull the space girder on you.

maybe keep the shine sprites, but re-propose the name change of the princess

Clucky: Yet they have managed to hijack the theme.

Also, McMed is currently not a tourist, so his vote doesn’t count.

S/K. Whatever. Do what you want.

Calm down yuri

Yeah, I am just playing with your head. I did that a lot to everyone during my dynasty (and they tried to kill me with a tuna can).
