Spelunking The Rules Contest (Regulations)
1. When no Expedition is ongoing, the Contestmaster SHALL, ASAP, randomly
select and publish the name and number of three Rules from the most recently-
published Ruleset (the Goals). This begins the Delving Period of a new
Expedition.
2. The Delving Period lasts for one week. During this time, a "Delve"
is one of:
(a) Submitting a proposal that includes amending or repealing one or
more Goals;
(b) Calling a CFJ that explicitly cites one or more Goals in the Caller's
Arguments;
(c) Judging a CFJ that explicitly cites one or more Goals in the Judge's
Arguments;
(d) Making a move or series of moves (game actions or possibly an
attempted "scam") that critically relies on one or more Goals; for
this option, the message in which the move is made or set of moves
is completed must make it clear the move(s) is/are intended to be a
single Delve.
3. ASAP after the Delving Period ends, the Contestmaster SHALL award by
announcement:
(a) 3 Pitons to the single person who, in the contestmaster's opinion,
made the best Delve; heavy consideration is given for the number of
current Goals in a single delve; the degree to which they are tied
together, and general interest value to Agora.
(b) 1 Piton to the person who made the craziest or generally stupidest
Delve, especially one that is otherwise self-destructive to the
person's Agoran interests.
If the Contestmaster feels that insufficient Delves were submitted for making
one or both of the above awards, then the Contestmaster CAN instead, with 2
Support, either:
(c) Extend the Delving period by one week from its original end time,
once per expedition; or
(d) Declare a Lost Expedition for either or both awards, awarding no
Pitons for the lost award(s).
Making these awards, or a Lost Expedition, ends any ongoing Expedition.
4. The first person with 10 or more pitons wins the contest. When someone
wins, this contest ends and dissolves.
Some Legalese: Pitons are a non-negative, non-transferable, non-asset integral
indicator of a person's progress in this contest, reported by the Contestmaster
asap after each Expedition, and defaulting to zero. The Contestmaster CANNOT
award emself Pitons. The contestmaster's decision on these awards and
interpretations of these Contest Regulations is final, unless e is found by the
Courts to be acting in arbitrary and capricious disregard for these
regulations.
Wear a helmet.
