Proposal: What We Have Here Is Failure to Communicate
In the rule “Scoring”, add the following as the last bullet point in the steps for resolving a Backronym:
* For each Wordsmith other than the Puzzler that did not post a Scoring to that Backronym, subtract 1 from that Wordsmith’s Points, to a minimum of 0, unless the author of that Backronym is that Wordsmith or that Wordsmith’s Rival.
Encouraging everyone to Score everyone else’s Backronyms. Now that they are easier to track via the “Other Pending Votable Matters” list, this shouldn’t be too hard.
