Yeah, a dice roll seems fair. The one hard part of making a Dynastic history is the playerlist, but I can name more than three off the top of my head: Me, Larry, Purplebeard, nqeron, Murphengineer. So we’d both be done by the time this Proposal passes. 109 is, after all, my first Dynasty.

Sheesh, was that roll lucky.

The easy way to find a partial playerlist is to include everyone whose vote on a proposal you included was counted by an admin.  Finding a complete playerlist is more time-consuming, although there’s a good technique to do so by Quorum-tracking.

That’s a good point. I think I’ve got everyone from my Dynasty, in the new writeup I’ve got saved, and I’ll give a more thorough once-over for scshunt IV, Raichu I, Larry I in a bit. (I’m going to write up Larry I after this, because, why not? I might keep going. This is kind of fun; well, more poring over old Dynasties than writing little things up about them, but it’s a nice excuse.)

per the blatant disregard for fair play going on in “:)” this feels like the safer move

...

What.

Bucky contacted me about self killing this proposal for something he is working on. I told him no cause I felt like that level of co-operation between scribes, especially when it comes to self killing proposals, doesn’t make for a fun game.

But then someone proposed a rule that let you score regardless and you and larry both voted for it so I didn’t care as much

It doesn’t work, and I wasn’t cooperating with Sci_Guy in any fashion other than explaining the edit to make it a Proposal was illegal,

But,

Sure, okay.

still don’t see how it doesn’t work. plus you and larry quickly voting for it was suspicious af

One: I’m named RaichuKFM. rAIchukFM. Not rIAchukMF.

Two: Rule 3.3.5. “Within the ruleset, a word only refers to the name of a Scribe if it is explicitly stated that it refers to a Scribe’s name.”

Three: That joke would have added a rule, to the ruleset, that says “[Name] scores”, instead of “The Scribe [Name] scores”, which means it means I no more scores, than “That Debater scores” would mean I scored if I changed my name to “That Debater”.

I guess that rule is kind of obscure? But it’s one I know well, because, it’s come up.

Regarding One: “Scribes may correct obvious spelling and typographical mistakes in the Ruleset and their own Pending Proposals at any time, including replacing Spivak and gender-specific pronouns with the singular “they”.”

Regarding Two: I wasn’t actually aware of this rule

Oh, okay.

Well, suddenly things make a lot more sense.

Heh. Looking at everything that just happened, objectively, it’s kind of a hilarious mess.
