 THE RULES OF GOOFALOT
In celebration of the game Goofalot played on USCH, 2000

 
1) NVR (No Vote Recieved) for a player will default to the master's vote for the turn.
2) 0.5 GP per SC owned. This is to discourage blatant non-goofy land grabs. But remember it is easier to be goofy with a decent amount of units.
3) Eliminated players can still vote, and be voted for without penalty.

Bonus Rules:

4) Any rule at all can be changed by any player at any time if you annoy me enough.
5) Annoying Mr. Chorn is prohibited, but crashing his judge warrants extra GP! Extra bonus for crashing USIN.
6) Hamsters, while cute and fuzzy, are not to be used in any way as projectiles during the course of this game.
7) Joining a game implies an intention to wear pants through to the end. Removing your pants without a good reason is considered very disrespectful. Don't join unless you are willing to commit yourself to wearing the same pair of pants for entire  game, which may take several months.
8) Players in gunboat games may not make any claim, true or false, as to the size of their proxies.
9) By player request, all players must be alive, but not necessarily breathing, to play this game.

  THE BEST OF GOOFALOT

> To Power Or To Observe - That Is Here The Question!
>
> Prince of Denmark

Greetings, Denmark!

        Are you sure you can handle the oh-so-extremely high skill level required to play a goofy variant? I mean, it's not like just any nitwit can write stupid press and stupid orders -- it takes a lot of foresight, strategical reasoning, insight, and intelligence to send your units madly off in all directions and broadcast"WON'T SOMEBODY PLEASE GIVE ME A NOOGIE?" Think carefully before getting in over your head! If you can't handle it we'll understand.

> 1 error encountered.  If error-free orders aren't received by the time I count to 10, you will be > considered ungoofy.

Okay, I think the judge is ready for the game.

Ahahaahah!!! Ca se peut tu que ce colon la utilise Altavista? Cette patente la est poche en masse. Une ou deux expressions, et ca pique une crise. A mon avis, tres niaiseux! Eh monsieur le maitre de Goof --- je pense que tu es chaud! Traduis moi donc ca avec Altavista... ;)

God: I don't care what that stupid Van Halen video says, I don't kill dogs and mom's because I have to.  I hate dogs!  Besides, even though that David Lee Roth was a jerk, the group just isn't the same without him.

USVG obviously. In case you didn't know, the VG stands for vegetable.

Episode 10, The Champ on the Romulan ship.


So I'm on the bridge of the Romulan ship, watching my tricorder, just doing my job, minding my own business, when I notice the nuclear warheads have vanished.

So I say "Hey boss" and I say, "The nuclear warheads are gone."

"What?" he says "Are you sure?"

"Yeah" I say, "looks like the TimeLords have got to them."

"What? TimeLords?" he says "This is Star Trek, not Doctor Who. Your tool must be dysfunctional"

"Pardon?"

"I said, YOUR TOOL IS DYSFUNCTIONAL."

SO THEN I LOSE IT!

I fake him with the tricorder, and the loser goes for it! Then a left, and a right to the stomach, and a flurry to the solar plexus!

So he's lying there, and I say "How d'ya like that? Enough 'your tool is dysfunctional' for ya?"

And ever since then, I've been the Champ.

WACKA WACKA WACKA!! So there's this GUY, right, there's this GUY and he's juggling BRICKS in a circus act! He's got THREE of 'em, three bricks, one RED, one YELLOW, and one BLUE. So he's JUGGLING, eh, he's juggling, and he THROWS THE RED ONE HIGH up in the AIR, but he misjudges and it comes down in the STANDS and BONKS SOME GUY OVER THE HEAD!! STOP ME IF YOU'VE HEARD THIS ONE!!!  So he keeps JUGGLING with TWO, the YELLOW and the BLUE ONE, RIGHT, and he THROWS the YELLOW one high up in the air, but he misjudges AGAIN and it takes out some OTHER guy in the stands! So THEN, so THEN
he's just juggling the BLUE one, and he throws IT high in the air, and...

ummm....

Crap. What was the punchline again...

Okay, SO, there's this GUY on an AIRPLANE, see, he's on an AIRPLANE and he's got his pet DUCK with him -- hah, remembered the duck this time -- so his DUCK is with him, and the duck is SICK, eh, the duck is COUGHING all the time. So he goes to the lady next to him, he goes he says Excuse me, would you mind putting out your cigarette, you're making my duck sick. So
she puts it out. But the DUCK, the duck keeps on COUGHING see, so he looks behind his row and he sees there's a guy smoking BEHIND him TOO, so he goes to him and says Excuse me, would you mind putting out your cigarette, you're making my duck sick! So he puts it out too. But the duck's STILL coughing! So he looks across this AISLE, and there's this guy smoking
CIGARS, so he says to him Excuse me, would you mind putting out your cigar, you're making my duck sick!! So he puts it out. But the DUCK'S STILL COUGHING!! So finally he goes and he looks in the duck's MOUTH, and he finds a BLUE BRICK.
