Rule #2. Whereof one cannot speak things must be shown.
Pictures, please. — Posty McPostface
Rule 9: The author of this thread shall reveal the "curious implications" prior to any player stating any further rules. He shall also reveal all the consequences of any of the rules already established being broken.

Banno got rule 9 in first. A previously unwritten and still unnumbered rule says that if you want to state any rule (other than this one: there can be only one unwritten, unnumbered rule...oh, wait, that's another one...damn!) and especially if you want to claim its status as a numbered rule, then you must state that it is so at the time of stating the rule itself. — Janus

Do you mean it's not true that Banno got rule 9 in first? — Janus
You noticed?That rule is meaningless. — Noble Dust
