All players have their rebelliousness characteristic changed to "off". 2. The OiCoRT should pick a Random Paradigm Type other than the Paradigm type active imediately before the Revolution. If that Paradigm Type specifies any other random determinations are to be made at this point then e should do that too.

It houses Ackanomic Records (a division of InterNomic Alcohol). It has three labels, Ackanomic Records, Harfy Sounds, and Steel Flea Music. Ackanomic Records and Steel Flea Music specialize in songs about Ackanomic, while Harfy Sounds specializes in anything else. Any player may publicly post the lyrics to parody of a real song and the name of the band which plays it (a made up band for the parody, not the real band). That player then receives 2 points unless their score is greater than 2/3 of the magic number. A player may not submit more than five songs per week. The DJ then assigns one of the labels to publish the song. E is also responsible for making a list of Ackanomic Record's songs publicly available. If one player thinks another is abusing this, they may call a Hearing hearing against a song or multiple songs by that player. The accusing player becomes the Hearing Harfer. The valid responses are "It's a perfectly good, original song" and "How dare you place a copy in our totally original records." If the result is the former than the Hearing Harfer must pay the player who wrote the songs A$5 for every song the Hearing was called against. If the result is the latter then the accused songs are no longer to be published by the DJ and that songs' author is fined 5 points for each song so removed and transfers A$5 per song the the Hearing Harfer. POLYGRAM Reduce else...if's score by three points, increase Trent's score by two points and JT's by one. ------------------------------ From: devjoe@wilma.che.utexas.edu Subject: Acka: Proposal 3856 rejected Date: Sat, 12 Dec 1998 20:01:05 -0500 (EST) Proposal 3856 Votes: 13/20 (7 YES votes): Quorum met Yes votes: 7/12: proposal rejected Yes: Alfvaen (MetaMorph) Trent (Giant Objectionable Potato) Robin Hood (Anti-Voting Preservationist Party) /dev/joe (Vulcan) else...if rSiE JT (The Razor Boomerangs) No: K 2 Jenny (The Razor Boomerangs) smallpox blanket (Klingon) Vynd Studge (Giant Objectionable Potato) Baa: ThinMan (Vulcan) Abstain r-attila the farce (Giant Objectionable Potato) Niccolo Flychuck (MetaMorph) Calvin N Hobbes rufus MTM (The Razor Boomerangs) Wild Card two-star Vacationing & did not vote: Aunt Froot Euphrates Slakko (SPAM) Subject: Acka: Proposal 3856 Proposal 3856 Out with the Old Hosed, in with the New Hosed JT Due: Sat Dec 12 19:45:53 1998 Status: rejected {{[ This removes the dependence on Hosing from being tied to the subject line and makes it a perogative of the postmaster. ]}} In rule 422 (Postmaster) replace the following WATER_GUN delimited text WATER_GUN If a player posts a public message with a subject line that does not contain either "Ackanomic:" or "Acka:", the Postmaster may declare that player to have Gone Postal.
