Create a subrule of Guessing, titled Writer Truth, with the following text:

All hints of any sort given by the Writer must be truthful.

I have a feeling that arth is going to log on, see the chaos, and instanly tell us that he meant to say one word, not all but one. Wouldn’t we all feel stupid?

Yes. It appears my english has not yet been polished to 100% and that I somehow managed to write the opposite of I wanted to.

Anyways: Clarifying the hint, the word that appears in common in both guesses and that appears also on the theme is “ON”.

Furthermore, other than that last typo, every other info I have given you guys is truthful. Guessing is hard enough as it is, and I don’t feel like I need to mislead you on top of that.

Liar.  On doesn’t appear in Moon Cheese.

Wakukee:

It appears as part of moon. That is heck of misleading.

Rodlen:

“Space Race to Taste Moon Cheese” does not include the word On.

Wakukee:

02-02-2009 08:39:21 UTC

“Space Race to Taste Moon Cheese.”

Rodlen:

That isn’t the exact word On, is it?

arthexis: he/him

02-02-2009 08:54:24 UTC

LOL! Actually now that I think about it, there is another word that more or less matches too…

arthexis: he/him

I’m going to vote against because it does not specify what actions should be taken in the case the Writer gives a hint that is not truthful, whether by intent or accident.

Also, there’s a certain implication in “hint” that it is truthful. Otherwise is it really a hint?

against As per Sparrow’s implication, particularly with this being as broad as “all hints of any sort”.

And a rule of “Arthexis must not make mistakes” is meaningless.
