Proposal: Directed Decluttering

Times out unpopular 3-4 - Bucky

Add a new dynastic rule to the ruleset. Call it “Recycle Bin” and give it the following text:

The Recycle Bin is a publicly tracked, alphabetically sorted list of words.

A Yielding Wordsmith or Puzzler who has not done so since the last time Acrogenerate was performed may add between one and six words (inclusive) from the Word Bank to the Recycle Bin, so long as none of those words appear in any Open Backronym’s title. A non-Yielding Wordsmith may take the same action, but is limited to one word.

After the step “Set the Prompt to any text” in the description of the Acrogenerate action in the rule Acronym, add the following steps:

Remove all words in the Recycle Bin from the Word Bank.
Empty the Recycle Bin.

imperial I’m kinda tempted to watch the word bank totally fill up now. Could make later rounds real interesting
