BlogNomic: The First Dynasty of Desertfrog

Righto, let’s try this again:

Add a new rule entitled “Slaying” that reads:

A protagonist (hereafter in this paragraph referred to as “the first chap”) is slain when another protagonist takes an action that reduces the HP of the first chap to zero.

A protagonist (Hereafter in this rule referred to as the slayer), by entering the command “slay X” where X is the name of another protagonist (Hereafter in this rule referred to as the slayed) with the same location as the slayer reduces the slayed’s HP to zero. The result following this action must be a gratuitious description of how the slayed was killed within the narrative. If the narrator does not find the result gratuitous enough, e may comment on the thread containing the offending result with text containing the word “dork”, causing the slayer’s head to explode, spattering gray matter over the ceiling, and the slayer’s HP to be reset to zero and the slayer’s location to be reset to “The Ruins of the Fortress of Cheese”.

If more than half of all comments containing counted votes also contain the text “Your slaying stuff is poop”, omit all text above this paragraph when administrating this Proposal. Just put this stuff in to get some action going as quickly as possible, what “slaying” is will probably be changed rather soon. If there is no rule entitled “Health”, omit all text above this paragraphwhen administrating this proposal.

Add a new rule entitled “Grue Tag” that reads as follows:

When a protagonist who’s role is “Grue” (Hereafter in this rule referred to as the “Monster”) is slain by a protagonist who’s role is not “Grue” (hereafter in this rule referred to as the “Slayer”), the Slayer’s role becomes “Grue” and the Monster’s role becomes “Unemployed”.

Add a new subsection entitled “unemployed” to the rule “characters” that reads as follows:

The unemployed protagonist is doomed to sit on a park bench until e has found a job. When a protagonist becomes “unemployed” eir location field is changed to “The Ruins of the Fortress of Cheese”. Eir location field may not change from “The Ruins of the Fortress of Cheese” as long as eir role field remains “unemployed”.

In the subsection “The Ruins of the Fortress of Cheese”, change the text:

A rotting heap of what was, undoubtedly, once some of the finest and awesomest cheese. At the center, the outline of a room, walled with “$$$$“s, is visible underneath a pile of rotting camembert.

so that it reads:

A rotting heap of what was, undoubtedly, once some of the finest and awesomest cheese. At the center, the outline of a room, walled with “$$$$“s, is visible underneath a pile of rotting camembert. Upon the peak of a mound of Gorgonzola is a park bench, where Y (is/are) reading a newspaper and munching Ritz Bits crackers.”

Where Y is a list of unemployed protagonists. The use of “is” or “are” in the context “where X (is/are) reading a newspaper” is entirely up to the creative whims of any admin.
