It will be interesting to see how we determine when it ends. Validity: Ok, long breath... The fireworks from 200:8 and 200:9 are still in the sky, in addition to the firework fired off in this Rule. It is still possible for a subsequent Rule to be fashioned. It does not attempt to commence earlier than one second after the previous Rule. The Rule is exactly 200 characters (excluding whitespace) long. The firework that is set off during the Rule is a unique color. The Rule does not contain any FRC Balloons. The Rule does not set off more than one firework. There are no other fireworks in the sky from this committee member. This Rule does not lack the launch of a firework. This Rule does not try to begin prior to the end of a previous valid Rule. There are three fireworks in the sky during this Rule. This Rule is VALID. Style: -0.50 for a restriction that I don't like. -0.25 for a restriction that only applies to the next valid Rule. -0.25 for not following its own restriction. +0.25 for following the restrictions of invalid Rules as well as the valid Rules. Doesn't really advance the theme or have a restriction that relates to the theme all too much, so no Style bonus there. +0.25 for adding the new twist of variable length fireworks. Total style: -0.50 -- Jeff Weston (Sir Toby) -- Rule Date: 2003-01-15 05:06:21 GMT
