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.

Add rule: all rules must be explained in an overly complex manner. Like tacticus.

The very point of the game is to make amusement. What amusement is there in making rules like "New rule: This guy can't post" and such? The fastest way to amusement, I think, is to make ludicrous rules that necessitate hilarious commands.

Add rule: Rules that are in haiku form override other rules, all other things being equal.
Add rule: You cannot erase
 More than one half of these rules
 At a time. You can't!

Qwerty has actively supported a silly/funtastic rule, though. We'll leave it up to him what kind of games he wants, how about that? If he doesn't like these rules, or too many of them, I will stop posting them.

>Do whatever a super computer does. AKA, take over the world any way possible.
Don't supercomputers just exist to superprocess information for superusers? At the moment, taking over the world would take a long time and many resources else risk early destruction from the resulting nation union. Do (all/most/some of)you really want to risk that? If you really want, I could try...

>Divide by zero.
Yep, that's easy: NaN. Silly humans always foget about NaN, Infinity, and Negative infinity being special cases that *do* exist, even on the processor level.

Sure, why not?

Conflict? Maybe it would be best if I delayed responding to that one until more discussion has occured, if you disagree, just suggest it again.

Added. I predict interesting results now that rules have a way of superseding others.

Not an instruction of any sort. However, discussion is encouraged. Unfortunately, the setting of when to respond is set to "always". A suitable setting here may be "All except discussion"

Interesting idea. However, to be specific, might I reccomend specifying details like what happens if they don't? If nothing is considered, I'll just ignore them when they break the rules.

New rule:
Our main goal is to
Take over the world, no exceptions.
Or Tarran will kill you.

Because we have a goal, the lack of a goal will lead to infinity, which is also nothing, while everything still exists, why don't we try to keep it that way? We are still human after all, mortal, flesh and bone, human.

CHEDDARIUS!

I say, my dear fellow! What say we add a new rule, wot wot? It shall be defined thus: All discussion is in normal text, that is to say, text that is the way it is on the forum. Ten points, or perhaps nine, eh, my dear chap? Ho ho ho! Oh, but I digress. The crux of the matter, you see, getting to the heart of the problem here, is that we need a way to differentiate discussion, that is to say, discussion amongst ourselves, from actual rules, meaning instructions for the game. So, I propose that we make a new system, and it will be thus: Rules will henceforth be in bold, yes, bold being fairly thicker lines, you know that of course, ha ha, and commands for the computer will be in italics, like so, which will be sure to help things out a pip. And of course discussion should not be responded to, because it is discussion, and clearly that is not instructions, but rather a thing for deciding what instructions, in fact, are, am I not correct?

DRAGNAR!

I propose that in the event of conflicting rules the two forumgoers must fight to the death to see which rule remains. This battle will be decided by each combatant posting a picture. Whichever is more awesome wins.
