In “Scoring”, replace “along with any flavor text” with:-
and (if the current Acronym is not RRBM) at least one word of flavor text
Requiring players to leave some kind of comment when making each scoring, in future rounds, rather than just the number.
I don’t know, the current acronym is a much quicker and more ambient thing for a player to check, and the odds of seeing a repeat are surely beyond 1-in-10,000.
Actually, what prevents someone from just leaving “This is a fantastic [insert prompt]” or “This is an underdeveloped [insert prompt]” on each person’s comment.
Nothing. If someone does that, then maybe we could propose to bar them from scoring other people’s Backronyms, if they are that uninterested in them.
(If they’re doing that and indiscriminately giving every Backronym the same score every round, as you are doing.)

On the (unlikely but possible) chance that “RRBM” is chosen again, can we change the parenthetical clause to be something else? Maybe something like:
That will solidly put the beginning marker to after the current round.
