Nope, and it doesn't work either.. thank goodness for 20 character limits
and the fact that you did it on research :)

Too long.  And on research. Fails.  And it's still annoying.

I create a trinket named "5-Iron" and one named "6-Iron," worth A$5 and
A$6 respectively, with descriptions of "This description intentionally
left blank," and gift one to JT and one to /dev/joe in recognition of the
admittedly pointless bit of irony (hmm?) which both of them completely
failed to appreciate, let alone recognize.

More scathing sarcasm for the first player to point out that neither of
the above actions work because they're both on acka-research.

But they're still Annoying.  (antecedent deliberately left ambiguous)

-Hubert

The weather is here, wish you were beautiful.

And why should we point out Irony.  It should be obvious.   We were merely
making sure that the registrar recognized it incase they happened to be
asleep at the wheel :)

Thanks for the lovely 5-Iron btw even if it's just a figment of my
imagination.

Personally?

I wish the proposal did osmething beside renumber ONE rule.

Yes, I know that seems at odds with my stance that I don't like
porposal-bbased changes to the rules.  But I am bordering on schizo.

	Actually, all children of rule 9 are automatically renumbered along
with it.  Also, how precisely would one go about renumbering individual
rules if one needed to?

Ok, I clearly don't take the organization of the ruleset as seriously as
you do.  

I don't really see a need to renumber a single rule.  The hierarchy isn't
really strict enough to require it.  I LOVE the hierarchical systemm don't
get me wrong.. but in it's current form, it's a very bare skeleton of what
it should be.

I would do it.

My schedule is getting a little hectic, but I think I could cover it.  Or
someone else could.  But at least there's interest, right?
