BlogNomic: The First Dynasty of Desertfrog

So, Jason dies, and Rodlen still wins.

The original contents are validated because the md5 checksum matches (see the note on the plot summary page).

For some odd reason, I can’t get the new md5 checksum to match…

Total is now -26.  Jason is dead.  A new metadynasty begins.

Nope.  It is past exactly 23:58:00.  This rule, therefore, has no effect.

See guys? I knew it all along. However I got something wrong: I thought PP was also gonna be affected, because of that I didn’t want to make mine any higher (which in the end worked, because if I had it just 1 or 2 higher, maybe there would be no Metadynasty).

No Rodlen, the rule has always been in effect, we just didn’t knew what it was doing.

Rodlen: It acted just like a regular rule that you couldn’t see.  It’s effect was still going on even though you didn’t know what it was.

However, at the time when it would have had an effect, we were unable to replace our relationships thanks to the fact that we didn’t know what the secret rule was.  Plus, it is still an action, just one we are forced to do.  Now that we know what action we have to take, we can’t take said action.

Neither can you.

You can’t NOT do it, otherwise, you’d be breaking the rules.

But you can’t do it without breaking the rules.

It is a very badly written rule.

It just means that it is automatic.

Nope.  If it was automatic, then the rule wouldn’t force each character to do it manually.  The rule does force each character to do it manually.

And it makes perfect sense that this led to “the First Metadynasty of Rodlen”.
