At the start of the dynasty, Blognomic was still reeling from several unilateral changes Brendan had made after having gained omnipotence over the Ruleset. A new category, Perdurable Rules, offered certain players exclusive privilege to winning future dynasties, and had attempted to require a unanimous vote for these rules to be modifiable. But since in the previous dynasty, Brendan had voluntarily relinquished his omnipotence clause, the Ruleset was eventually restored to status quo.
Once things had settled down, Brendan took up a backseat role, and the players really got into the road trip theme. Collecting coins and Souveniers[sic], the play was much more traditional, and included a rather involved, instant-win scam idea toward the end that several people caught onto before the whole thing was patched. The scam being the only real victory condition, the players ended the road trip by gathering around a campfire with their coins and making all other dynastic rules irrelevant (as "flavor text").
At this point, several returning players joined back in. We bandied our coins about to try to decide who should be given a majority, to win and become the next emperor. Several randomizing activities were proposed and enacted, and finally, three players just did a pooling die roll and handed their coins to Zack.
Souveniers
Before Staunton Lick converted them to coins, the following items had been collected by the Trippers:
| Name | Souveniers |
|---|---|
| Clucky | Pen from The Heap of Spoils, Flag from the Parlour |
| Josh | Stamp from Magma Wheel, Dried Leaves from the Burning Arrow |
| Kevan | Tattoo from Eternal Thursday, Map from Sartre's Gift Shop |
| TyGuy6 | Apparel from The Cleansing Blood of Darby O'Gill |
