Proposition 325 passes. WHOOOOPS

Rankenphile receives 25 points (reflected above) for passing his proposition. srsizzy loses 50 points for 5 posts containing the forbidden word. naporeon loses 10 points for one instance of forbiddenness.

For the rest of this turn, the word "the" must be replaced with the word "teh."

I'm seeing now that I shouldn't have even bothered making teh replacement word a requirement.

Go, Raneadoodle. Go now.

naporeon

HOLD ON, SON.

NEXT TURN ISN'T STARTING YET.

I INVOKE JUDGMENT ON THE APPLICATION OF THE RULE GIVING ME -10 POINTS.

IN THE INTEREST OF FAIRNESS, I SHOULD TELL YOU THAT I AM UNLIKELY TO VOTE TO MOVE THIS TURN ON IF THIS DECISION GOES AGAINST ME. UNLESS AN ACTUAL ARGUMENT IS MADE FOR IT.

naporeon

SRSIZZY, IT'S YOUR SHOW.

JUDGE.

MY ARGUMENT IS THAT IF, WHILE VOTING, I DECIDE TO CAPITALIZE A SINGLE WORD, THAT WORD WOULD NOT BE RECOGNIZED AS PART OF THE VOTING PROTOCOL, AND MY VOTE WOULDN'T BE COUNTED ON THE GROUNDS THAT I HADN'T USED THE CORRECT WORDING. I AM SIMPLY SAYING THAT, LOGICALLY SPEAKING, THIS STANDARD SHOULD BE APPLIED ACROSS THE BOARD.

Zek

fuck no nap

forbidden word

naporeon

OF COURSE.

WHY WOULD I FEAR IT?

I AM USING CAPS.

Zek

because using caps does not change what word it is

naporeon

SO YOU'RE SAYING THAT WE CAN POST VOTES IN ALL-CAPS?

Zek

no, because rule 301 says the votes must match the format precisely, but rule 323 merely says it has to be the same word

Monkeybomb

Key word in rule 301: format.

Key word in rule 323: not format.

What Zek said.

naporeon

I SUGGEST THAT YOU BOTH READ RULE 301 AGAIN.

IT SAYS NOTHING AT ALL ABOUT CAPS.

IT SAYS "FORMAT", OFFERS THE EXAMPLES, THEN STATES ONLY BOLD FACE TYPE & FONT COLOR.

Zek

upper/lower case is one of the many aspects of format

i don't really care if you vote in caps though, either way sit down and take your -20

wHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPS!

Zek

point deductions give me pleasure

is that the best you got

Monkeybomb

Monkey Steals teh Peach

I'm not taking any chances here.

Nap, I'm thinking there's a good chance that srsizzy will not be back online for 12 hours or more.

naporeon

YOU ARE LIKE THAT BENDER GUY IN THE BREAKFAST CLUB

So we wait.

naporeon

Also, when I learned it, we called it Monkey Picking Fruit.

Which is actually kind of not as cool. But still pretty rad.

Monkeybomb

Peaches come from a tree
They were put there by Bruce Lee
In a factory downtooooown

Rankenphile

so do I gotta still post in pink or what?

naporeon

Still your turn.

Raneados

it's cool rank I'll post in pink with you just in case nap decides that he wants to CHEAT SOME MORE


so what... a tad confused... we're voting for whatnow?

naporeon

Nothing.

We wait for srsizzy to render Judgment.

Then we vote.

Good luck getting him to vote with you guys, after you shat on him mercilessly last round.

Zek

at least i only shat on him once nap

naporeon

I meant more the commentary.

I voted how I did for reasons I am not at liberty to discuss.

Raneados

part of my next prop would have actually made it more clear

I hate you nap

Zek

two great big steaming logs

Raneados

nap's losing control on his own game

QUICKLY LET US DESTROY HIM

PotU

Someone should propose that nap's not allowed to start the next thread, bitch never updates the OP.

Raneados

guess who's turn is next, I already have several ideas, and I just might make that one of them

I'd actually like this.

Anyone is welcome to do it, if he thinks he'll be more likely to update it.

WUH OH!

Callius

While nap's point of contention is as thin as paper (the format v. word thing is a pretty big hole in your argument duder), he has a point about you all shitting on him and his required vote for cloture.

Good show Nap, good show indeed.... you bastard

Monkeybomb

srsizzy

What the hell.

Rankenphile

fucking make a judgement, I'm so god damn sick of posting pink.

srsizzy

The game doesn't resume until I make a judgment and a majority vote for play to resume.

Delightful.

nap, I'm torn, and I'm going to have to consider this for at least an hour.
