Time to calculate the points.
I put 11 patches in that post.
11 groups of 1 patch, as well as 11 groups of 10 patches
11x10=110 groups of 2 patches, as well as 110 groups of 9 patches.
11x10x9=990 groups of 3 patches, as well as 990 groups of 8 patches.
11x10x9x8= 7920 groups of 4 patches, as well as 7920 groups of 7 patches.
11x10x9x8x7=55440 groups of 5 patches as well as 55440 groups of 6 patches,
and only 1 group of 11 patches.
That makes for a total of 2(11+110+990+7920+55440) +1= 128943 groups of patches.
Each patch group is equal to 5 points. 128943 x 5 =644715 point.

..And I thought I'd be a millionaire. Oh well.

At least I have another patch.
Rules:
If you locate a loophole in a game, you earn five points.
If you offer a patch/patches that are accepted, you earn ten points.
If a player discovers a loophole in your patch, you lose fifteen points unless five minutes have passed based on the timestamps on the two posts in question.
The player with the most points is to be designated the current winner, if people are tied, then list all the people tied as current winners.
The above rules can be modified by a majority vote or by the OP.
The score of the game is measured in points. Whenever a 'point' is mentioned, it refers to this definition, unless otherwise said.
Patches are considered for points both separately and as a whole group. However, only one patch can occur in a single post starting when this rule first appears in a patch. This specifically refers to the 'fixed' versions of the rules, not the word 'patch' or a cloth patch.
Touché.

This thread may as well be lactose intolerant...

...because this amount of cheese will surely kill it.

Work on a potential forum game for my return to Bay12. Figure out parts that puzzled me before. Find more things to figure out that I can't. Work on another game instead of solving them. Get distracted and stop working. Remember it a week or two later. Remember I'm still on hiatus. Illogically, Be too ashamed to return yet. Repeat ad nauseam.

Finally have a game completely ready. Wait a week before posting it out of laziness.

Alright, since no one is going to get it: The first rule is phrased how it is to allow players to earn points by locating loopholes in other games.
