mmviwas an attempted scam from Lars arguing that if a proposal redefined how proposals enacted (and also included a victory scam), it could apply that new definition to itself while pending, and enact itself. The group did not agree (also here).Declaration of Victory: Call for Judgement: April Fools!was bigger failed scam from Bucky in a similar vein
Core
This dynasty saw the core ruleset being amended by having players work on it in a separate wiki document, with some changes being copied across. The Agenda was also a ruleset-tracked list of things to fix.
- Ruleset Amendments added glossary entries for common terms
- A Stitch in Time changed the wording of ruleset alteration and DoV voting
- Clearing Victory updated the DoV rule
- According to the Agenda added an essay portion to the wiki
Ascension
Newly-unidled Angry Grasshopper made a sort-of DoV as an April Fool's Joke, which passed partly due to some players being tired of the Metadynasty.
Commentary
Very confusing rules with a lot of absurdity and Gostaks. --Qwazukee 02:42, 12 Apr 2009 (GMT)
This Dynasty had many problems, and thus saw a large number of idles. Proposals would go by with only 2 or 3 votes. --Qwazukee 02:42, 12 Apr 2009 (GMT)
