BlogNomic: The First Dynasty of Desertfrog

If the proposal “The Theme” passes, this proposal does nothing.

Create a new rule “Theme”:

There exists a Dynastic Theme (also known as The Theme) which is a part of the Gamestate, but which may only be changed through Proposal or CfJ. The Theme is described by a single sentence which is only known to The Writer, and whose MD5 hash is “997e169d477054d6f23621e83e46e127”.

Create a new rule “Guessing”:

Each Staff member has a non-negative integer number of “Guesses” which are tracked by the GNDT. New Citizens start with 3 Guesses. As a daily action, a Staff member may “Take a Guess” by spending 1 Guess and making a Story Post whose subject starts with “[Guessing]”. The post shall contain in it’s body a text that will be compared to the Theme by the Writer.

If the text to compare has roughly the same words as the Theme, disregarding punctuation, capitalization and exact order of the words, the Writer shall comment that the Guess was correct and the Staff member who took the Guess achieves victory. If one of the words used in the Guess is a synonym of a word in the Theme, the two words shall be considered effectively the same.

In any other case, The Writer shall comment that the Guess is wrong and should include some reasons as to why it was wrong on the same comment.

Give 3 Guesses to each member of the Staff.

Create a new rule “Hints”

There exist special proposals called Hints.  The Writer may create a Hint by adding the text “[Hint]” at the begining of the title of the proposal. Gamestate changes and Ruleset changes made by a Hint shall be considered to be related to the Theme.

There exists a wiki page called “Theme Hints” that keeps a record of all Hints that have been made.  When a Hint is enacted, its contents shall be added to the Theme Hints wiki page under a heading for the date and time of the post.

I changed some of the exact wording but left the bulk of it the same.  Also, the way the Hints rule is worded, it allows for another possible way of creating Hints, such as the Writer deeming a proposal a Hint somehow.
