On your knees, mortal. The Gods are watching. Inspired by BM's laws, I decided to turn up the heat and bring some action into BYOB, the Law Zone. The game is this: As lord servant of the almighty Gods, I will receive their words and transmit them to you via this thread. They will tell you to do something in every post you make in BYOB and if you don't do it, I will probe you for this sacrilege. You infidel. Instructions: 1) Sign up to join the Cult of Enlightenment in this thread 2) Read the currently active commandment below. Commandments are subject to change every few days, depending on the will of the Gods. 3) Follow the current commandment no matter what. No taking back, no swimming around, full commitment only. Only exceptions of all commandments are serious effort posts and any posts in the Bad Vibes thread. 4) Come back to this thread to sign off the cult, ask questions regarding the currently active commandment or suggest new ones. Maybe they will listen to you! Only yobbers who have signed up ITT are watched by the Gods and you can sign off anytime you wish (also sign up again afterwards), I will try to keep track based on the timestamp of your posts. That means that if you make a post breaking a commandment, then sign off and I catch you doing so, I will still probe you, so don't play with the God's fire. If you try to edit your soul out of it, beg that it's a ninja edit and no one saw it in time. Commandments can change at any time, I will try to both not to overwhelm you with new rules as well as not let this go stale. ONLY the current commandment is important, anything before or after does not matter for your posts. I hope this stays manageable, I honestly can't tell. Also note that if you break a commandment and don't get probed because I'm not on a computer or because I missed it, it can happen anytime later. I probably saw it, noted it down somewhere and the God's wrath will strike you down, so don't test me. Winner's Blessing: If you manage to follow a total of four commandments without breaking any of them, I will buy you a forum cert of your choice (reg/plat/archives/av/no ads/name change/unban)! This is not a race, so anyone who participates and wins can get one. If you don't want one, donating them is fine, too. Alternatively, choose a banner ad for byob and I'll buy that one instead. A commandment counts as fulfilled if you signed up not too long after it was given (or if you already were signed up) and you stay in for the full duration. You can still sign off anytime, but the commandment that was in place then will not count for your score, even if you sign back on. Your current score can be seen in the list below. Current commandment: None Nothing right now, post however you like Current Cult of Enlightenment:

Let's add some byob spirited positivity into this church. Now available: The winner's blessing! You can now win a forum cert of your choice if you follow a total of four commandments without breaking any of them. If you do break one, no worries, you're not out of chances and can just win with the next one! I edited the op with some details, let me know if I forgot to specify anything in there.

i am currently the surrogate poster for jon joe so i need to get up off my butt and earn my keep. the rules explicitly state that this is byob only but i will be keeping kosher everywhere that i post. also, to be moses atop the flaming mountain for a moment, surely should count towards my butt posting quota

Heather Papps posted:quick question to save my butt: if i edit a post, that has butt in it, later, but the edit doesn't have butt in it, am i breaking the word of the law? Nah if it had a butt it's good, unless I never saw it with a butt and you edited it out before I could confirm the fair post, then it's probably bad. Although by common sense no one should ever edit out a butt tbh Heather Papps posted:also if i quote a post with a butt in it do i have to also post a butt help high priest help No, quotes count as your post and are fine, just like with emptyquotes.

After all, no one could deny a weedass anything.

New commandment!! The Butt Zone has passed, you no longer have to post butts and are free to post whatever. However, everyone signed up has to post at least two new threads in BYOB before the commandment expires. Content, length, title and whatnot does not matter, also not if you post them right now or a minute before it's over, let us all enjoy some great posts!! Anyone who didn't follow the commandment will be probed after the commandment is over. Also, updated the scoreboard for the winners.

New commandment The threadnesday is over, everyone but alnilam fulfilled their posting duty. You may now feel free to post as much or little as you like, however, the Gentleman's club is here! Stay classy, talk orderly, no typos, no mistakes, proper punctuation and capitalization, let's talk like real adults here. There is some freedom in small typos or stuff that just happens, but you should double check every post you make or beg that I don't see your emergency edit in time! Regular English is the way to go here, I won't be monitoring other languages obviously and (not super common) names etc. are exempt. In general, if I can't check it in a dictionary, it's fair game. Updated the scoreboard as well, we are getting close to two winners already!

Help me please I can feel the Papps rising in me. I want, very much, to just post the word "Bump!" but I remain hesitant, for I am not certain if a single word exclamation counts as proper, grammar wise. I am very close to just doing it, and risking the probe, but I take my oaths seriously and will not break them knowingly.

Heather Papps posted:Help me please I can feel the Papps rising in me. I see your dilemma, Miss Papps, and to my knowledge it would be improper grammar to post a single word with an exclamation point. It is understandable when done as an exclamation of surprise, pain, disappointment, elation, or some other such outburst of emotion, but to be a complete grammatically correct sentence it would require both a subject and a predicate. Of course, there is a potential that my knowledge is lacking, as I have not studied the English language in any depth since I was a much younger man. |
