Per rule 2.19 Fun Enforcement, the only legal action to take is to vote

This DoV is fun.

Also arth, you can’t vote FOR, because that’s boring.

I already did, too late.

It was an illegal vote, therefore it can’t be counted.

It is not illegal. In fact it is the only legal action available.

Please apply the common english usage to words in the ruleset, don’t make them mean whatever you want to mean.

The only legal action was no action at all.

I’m tired of you DC, always trying to make the game less fun. We should have never made you an admin, since clearly you have no intention of acting like one.

So why is this DoV immune to being called out as boring? Because of your comment on the proposal that “if something is fun, it can’t be boring”?

The Ruleset page currently reads “if an action they take would be boring, that action can be taken.”  Is this an adminning error?

Even if the “typo” had not been corrected, arth has met no victory conditions. Furthermore, it is not fun to vote for, it is more fun to vote against, since it puts you in your place for trying to win off a rule which in no way states that you can win.

btw, how was it the only legal action? Perhaps the only legal action for you, but I would have found voting against quite boring.

And by saying “boring actions cannot be taken” you are not saying “fun actions must be taken.” That would be like saying that “An idle player may not win” means that “Any active player may win” and declaring victory.

Furthermore, these two quotes should make it quite clear that this does not allow you to win. Bucky should agree with me. From the secret ruleset:

3) Actions based on an interpretation of the Ruleset not obvious from a casual reading may be illegal even if strictly permitted by the Ruleset.

And:

2) An action is illegal if a CfJ challenging it would pass, or if most players beleive it to be illegal. <—A CFJ would pass, were it not for the boring rule, and it would probably pass anyway.

The secret ruleset is not binding, Wak.

It even says that: “If an unwritten rule conflicts with the Ruleset, the Ruleset takes precidence.”

Bucky’s “secret ruleset” is just a descriptive (and partially obsolete) summary of past player behaviour - none of it’s binding, none of it could overturn a DoV.

Whether I win or not, no one (that doesn’t hate me per se) has really voted against this DoV. Since Wak is going idle, this DoV is still 1 vote FOR, 1 vote AGAINST.

Um, what? Who said I was going idle??? I’m not going idle!

You should, then :P

...

Also, I don’t hate you, I just think that this DoV is amazingly dumb.

See what I miss when I’m away from the game momentarily.

*facepalm*
