I don't dislike that rule, I'm just playing with you.

Just wait, you are going to get hit by a ship round, you know it, the dice are just that bloodthirsty.

Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

Cheddarius, being hit directly by a ship round will atomize you. There will be nothing to heal!

I will have him reconstruct my body with raw materials and a full-body scan at the atomic level taken moments before I died. :P

But whatever, let's wait for the GM to post before spamming up his thread.

Karnewarrior, I'm a bit shifty about your decision to name yourself God. That being said, I'll negate that rule. After all, it is fairly useless. Now, you may ask, "Why not keep it?" Well, a similar question would by "Why keep it"? Yes, there are always quite interesting conflicts with things of this sort. But there is an interesting aspect of this decision. The onus is on me to prove that it is worth it - after all, you do not go about your daily routine asking "Hmmm, why not screech like a howler monkey and tap my hands on my head rhythmically?" You must have a reason to do something, not a reason not to. Of course, you cannot think of every conceivable action and eliminate them constantly. Surely, you ignore actions unless you see a benefit. But, I do see a benefit here. Karne, though he has displayed a streak of silliness that could impoverish the game, surely deserves a second chance. And thus, we shall add this new rule. We will also make it a haiku, just for kicks.

Karnewarrior rocks!
Like the rustling of the mail
Let us let him post.


It seems Qwerty has added a new dimension to the game - that is, an unreliable narrator who lies (everything capitalized and underlined is a lie). How clever of him... This will be interesting.

Program code online for money.

Dangit what someone ninja'ed me
Unfortunately, I cannot comply with that instruction, since it isn't overly explained according to rule 001.
I only lie on occasion, due to the previously activates LIE.VIRUS. As you can probably see, it's effects are visually enhanced with strikethrough ITALICS on removed text and underline and capitalization on added text.

Otto, gotta explain that.
Also, we could add that but I think I'd have to remove the extra-complicated one, then.

TARRAN!

Player posts that fail at a rule must be responded with "FAIL!" at the start of the response, because there's just not any substitute for fail, and without fail there can be no success can there? And besides, this is a fresh rule. And for once you have to follow a rule, fun for everyone no?

You still failed rule 001, so your post is effectively null.
