Proposal: The Veil of Ignorance
repeal the ruleset in its entirety
Failed 1-9. Failed by Simon, 23rd of January at 00:50.
Idolitry
Continuing the recent spate of idolitry due to the bad form of life, my house was broken into and my laptop stolen today. This means I will be offline for the forseeable future. Obviously, all my cookies were on auto-login, so ignore anyone purporting to be me.
I'll be back when I'be bought a new laptop, so don't hold your breath. All the best until then.

Proposal: Boiiiiing!
After the first paragraph in the Position rule, add this new paragraph:
If a Muffin would move to a Standard Position and there is a Muffin occupying that Position, the moving Muffin may bounce off of the other Muffin by making a comment in the GNDT "Bounce off of [Muffin Name]". After moving, the bouncing Muffin must then change their Position to an adjacent Position, up or down. Bouncing may be repeated for as long as the Position being moved to is occupied by a Muffin that has not been bounced off of that day by the moving Muffin.
9-0. Reached Quorum. Enacted by Chronos at 01/20/2005 GMT 17:33
Enactment troubles
Whoever enacted Dr. Eggman's Mean Muffin machine forgot to change the Flavor field in GNDT because it appears that I am Burnt flavored.

Proposal: Freeze! (Tag)
Rewrite the rules of Tag, as laid out in the rule Tag, as follows:
In the same rule, remove the sentence: "When the tens digit of the year is either a 5 or a 0, then it is a designated tag day."
1. A Muffin may tag any other Muffin in the same Position, if the Muffin that is doing the tagging is "It." Upon tagging the other Muffin in this manner, the Muffin that is "It" may either change its own field in the Tag column to "NotIt" and the field in the Tag column of the Muffin being tagged to "It," or may freeze the Muffin being tagged. Freezing is indicated by adding an asterisk * to the end of the Muffin's Flavor. A Muffin can only be tagged in this manner once per day.
2. A Muffin that has been frozen may not change its Position, have its Position changed, or be tagged.
3. An unfrozen "NotIt" Muffin may unfreeze a frozen Muffin in the same Position, as long as the Muffin that is "It" is not also present in their Position. This is indicated by removing the asterisk * from the frozen Muffin's Flavor.
4. No tagbacks; you may not tag a Muffin that just tagged you.
5. If, for whatever reason, no Muffin is "It," then the GRAND POOBAH becomes "It," and is un-Frozen if necessary. If a Muffin that is idle was "It" prior to idling, then it is reverted to "NotIt" upon returning.
In the same rule, remove the sentence: "When the tens digit of the year is either a 5 or a 0, then it is a designated tag day."
2-5. Timed out. Failed by Chronos at 01/20/2005 GMT 17:08

A Muffin Axed
Hello fellow muffins. Today I lost my job. That makes this a good time to idle me. It's been a brief trip this time around, but I'm glad that, if nothing else, I have injected a small bit of bad haiku into everyone's life. I will be back.
I'd just like to apologize for my sudden disappearance a few weeks ago. A three day trip out of town unexpectedly expanded to two weeks, and upon my return I was greeted with a hundred and three degree fever that lasted five days.
I'm better now, but I'm also temporarily without home internet access (I'm at work now), and since it only takes proposals fourty-eight hours to pass, and I usually have three day weekends, I don't think I'm in a position to make a valid contribution just yet.
I will be lurking until I am once again able to access the internet from home.
See you then.

Proposal: Yet Another Impossible Victory Condition
Add to Rule 15, 'Special Position Rules':
Also, to avoid conflicts, change 'they may change their position to R' to 'they may change their position'.
There exists a position called Position Mornington Crescent. No Muffin may ever be in Position Mornington Crescent. A Muffin in Mornington Crescent may declare victory.
Also, to avoid conflicts, change 'they may change their position to R' to 'they may change their position'.

Proposal: Dr. Eggman's Mean Muffin Machine
Replace all instances of "Muffin Satan" with "Dr. Eggman", "Satan" with "Eggman", "Ring of Fire" with "Launch Base Zone", "Paradiso" with "The Death Egg","Burnt" with "Robot", "purchase" with "hire" and "parashute" with "kitsune".
Replace the first, third and forth instances of "kitsune" with "fly"
This isn't as radical as Blognomic 3 & Quazie and the Dante theme was only a small part of the insanity that is this dynasty.
