The reasons for this thread to be made are many.
One is that I simply hate the rules of the official last post thread, and miss the old democratic one.
But there is another more selfish one:
I regret to say that I currently look upon me and The Admiral's relationship as strained. This is my fault since I have been both mean and unfair to him. I'm sure it will fix itself and that I am simply being childish, but this is the truth of the current situation.
So this thread was partly made to annoy him, and to contest the other last post thread, out of the sin of vanity in the form of pride. I simply believe the old rules were better, and I want to fight for them, and I want to shove The Admiral's rules ut his ass. ^^
This is how I understand the old rules. Forgive me if any of the wise old ones disagrees.
----------------------------
Rules:
1. The number is not the post number but the
reply number. No need to +1.
2. If you post on the set number you win the chance to set a new number.
3. You may post the number, or you may keep it secret, but make sure to come back regularly enough to reveal the winner. If you beleieve you cannot get back soon enough for this, please post the number.
4. After some period of time after someone has won, depending on the amount of posts and time that has gone by, if the winner has not come back and set a new number, another number will be set in
democratic agreement.
5. As for conversation, any topic will do.
6.
Anyone who isn't the winner of the current round may set a number without voiced agreement that the real winner is too late and it is due time to set a number.
7. No one, not even mods may evade these rules.
(Mods may
modify this thread and it's post as is their job, but as these rules are not invalid in any way, it should not be neccesary to alter them. Also if someone feels like deleting this because we already have a last post thread, I have to point out to you that
the rules are completely different, so even though the game is based on the same general idea,
it is a completely different game.)
----------------------------
As a side note, not a rule, I wish you to
respect your elders. Not neccesarily the old ones of age, but those who have been in the forum longer, and not THIS forum, but the flipside forum in general, and are well known.
It is incontrovertible that those who have been here the longest are those who have the most experience and those who are, most likely, the wisest.
But I will root for the new generation, it has most times proven to overtake the old,
but not momentarily. New knowledge, new ways, new traditions are healthy to this forum. Change is good, and should be welcomed.
But I still beleive "my" rules are better.
Now spam this thing down with something so we don't have to look at this boring, formal post any longer!!! 8D
And yes, I do get hyperactive from writing formally.
