If you don't have a great idea when you learn that it is your turn, don't just make a round that you don't even think is good. Try to think to come up with a good idea for a round, and then if you can't, then make a round that you don't even think is good.
Also you're encouraged to start the round in this format: "You have one post to [what you have one post to do goes here]"
Additionally don't end the round early. Rounds should be at least close to a day long. If you started the round at night, you can't end it tomorrow morning. If you started it in the morning, you shouldn't end it before you go to bed.
Interrounds:
The people running rounds are ideally supposed to judge approximately 24 hours after they start the round, but from now on if they haven't judged after 30 hours (6 hours late) then anyone is allowed to start a round between rounds, like the guess when Livio will start the next round, guess how many dogs shos has, ect.
You're also allowed to do this if the round has been judged within 30 hours, but the next guy hasn't started their round within 12 hours of the other round being judged.
The catch is of course that the round could end at any time, because these rounds last until the current round is judged and the next round begins.
You may judge rounds however you'd like, but at the end of the round there can only be one winner.
These rounds will be marked as ".5"s in the previous rounds and winners

You leave in the morning
With everything you own
In a little black case
Alone on a platform
The wind and the rain
On a sad and lonely face
but why would i be outside when it's windy and rainy? 4/10
Mother will never understand
Why you had to leave
But the answers you seek
Will never be found at home
The love that you need
Will never be found at home
Pushed around and kicked around
Always a lonely boy
You were the one
That they'd talk about around town
As they put you down
And as hard as they would try
They'd hurt to make you cry
But you never cried to them
Just to your soul
No you never cried to them
Just to your soul

The problem is the staff isn't mature! just look at yourself quirvy! does that look like a mature person to you? No! quirvy, first and foremost, should be fired. second, look at jell. he dodges around questions like an extremely intelligent little kid! jell is NOT mature. fire him. Harumbai? hamsters =/= mature. inactivity =/= mature. fire him. we don't even know about haily. fire him. CSD... all he does is make the cavemaker! i don't consider devoting all the time to a website that you are staff on making something that a non-staff could make. Shos... is just confused. really. he may be mature, but if you don't understand anything, that doesn't really help. Yaya hasn't been staff long enough for me to criticize. this leaves. this leaves isa, jebby, and livio. livio created the site, so he should stay. jebby and sefro were the only people who actually bothered with the problem with thomas. so livio isa and jebby should stay. everybody else should be fired
CSD is inactive, Thomas is offensive, Yimmy is immature, Isa is Swedish. It is pretty obvious that no person on this site is suitable to be a staff member. So, let's just remove the entire staff system. Just let nature sort everything out itself.

Speaking of nature, let's abolish the site system too. Let's gather all the members of Interguild in a randomly selected forest and have computers and electricity somehow and we can judge each other's HATPC playing, minecraft builds, and other things.

Quirvy and Jellsprout are bananas. That much is obvious. CSD and Yaya have gone through with the ritual to become werewolves. Sefro hates Thomas Edison. Livio and Isa would die within a week if they switched countries. Finally, Harumbai, Jebby, and Shos are actually squirrel-hamsters in disguise. All of these facts are noticeable if you know where to look.
Source(s):
Quirvy and Jellsprout have probably said the word, "banana" thousands of times in their lifetimes, which proves that they are indeed bananas. CSD is almost never online on the Full Moon, because he turns into a werewolf then. Yaya said to me that he was a werewolf in a PM a while ago. Although, that might have just been me talking to myself. (Yaya = Possible human, must research further) Sefro, with all of his rabbits, has never seen the MOAR. (Mother Of All Rabbits) It lives in the southernmost reaches of Easter Island, and produced rabbits by the thousand every hour. (Exact rate unknown, but estimated to be 6437 rabbits per hour, or 6437 RPH) Sefro loves the MOAR, because it produces rabbits at an extreme rate. The MOAR hates Thomas Edison, so Sefro hates Thomas Edison. Livio lives in arid, dry, Arizona, where he spends most of his day dying of heatstroke or bumping into cacti. Isa, on the other hand, lives in frigid, snow-covered Sweden, where he spends most of his day freezing to death, or skiing down 300-mile-high mountains of snow. If these two were swapped and forced to take the role of hobos, they would die really quickly because of their intolerance for climates unlike their own. And lastly, Harumbai, Jebby, and Shos are squirrel-hamsters. Squirrel-hamsters invaded Earth at approximately 300 A.D., where they slaughtered the indigenous population, hamster-squirrels. After settling down, they quickly realized that hamster-squirrels were not the dominant species on the planet, humans were. They soon marched upon western Europe in the hopes to stop the spread of humans. However, the humans fought back: an estimated 16 humans were killed, probably because they were mistaken for squirrel-hamsters. But an estimated 37,000,000,000 squirrel-hamsters were killed in the war. (There were only ever about 38,000,000,000 alive at one time) Squished, eaten, or fed to cats, they were all but wiped out. The remaining squirrel-hamsters went into hiding, and because they live for 73,000,000,000,000,000+ years, they never reproduce, so there are very few squirrel hamsters still alive today. Harumbai, Jebby, and Shos all blended into society moderately well, and took up occupations such as squirrel-hamster "exterminator", where the exterminator is supposed to exterminate the hamsters, but instead Jebby, the exterminator of the bunch, pretends to exterminate the squirrel-hamsters, but instead gives them a new hiding place. Shos is a squirrel-hamster-rights protester. He tries to get more rights for squirrel-hamsters by bribing officials to pass laws to protect squirrel-hamsters. And finally, Harumbai is the squirrel-hamster king, and if you look closely, you can tell. For one, his avatar image is a squirrel-hamster, for goodness' sake! He also probably lives in like New Zealand or something, (I think that's what Teo said) where the largest number of squirrel-hamsters have gone into hiding. He also likes to nibble on carrots and/or lettuce. A squirrel-hamster's two favorite foods are carrots and lettuce. he plans to eventually clone himself a few quintillion times to take over Earth, and another septillion times to take over the whole galaxy. After that he will clone himself at a rate of 423,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 squirrel-hamsters per second, and take over the entire Universe. His motto? "Squirrel-hamsters shall rule all!" It is cleverly hidden in his signature, size zero, and also invisible, even if you quote his signature. I found it because my cat started viciously attacking the screen when I rolled over his signature. And that, my friends, is why the entire Staff is unfit to be Staff any longer. We should replace them with random nine-year-olds who just got addicted to the Internet and know next to nothing about computers.
Some fresh minds in the Staff should do some help.

False. Banana in Dutch is banaan. Jellsprout has probably said banana maybe 10 or 20 times in his life in primary school learning foods in English or something.

Meet up IRL... and have a kung-fu deathmath. Last 4 members standing are crowned new staff. Afterwords we just rebuild the memberbase with new people. Anyone who dies doesn't deserve to be part of the site. I call stangling Darvince with my own intestines after faking suicide to get the upper hand.
COMING SOON: A giant meteor. Please.
Give me +karma. Give me +karma.
Let's all use proxy's, and make fake accounts known as yoda(1), Yoda (2), etc. And like this only we speak.
Side note. If the account gets banned, make a new Yoda account adding to the number. This will obviously increase the active player base

Actually, I've probably said "Oh, banana!" about a hundred times when playing DK64. I think I've said "banana" more times in relation to DK64 than in any other context.
The staff should be divided into 3 separate groups: a group to monitor the official censors in case they break, a group to manage posts with ridiculous font size, and a group for neutralizing phantom difficulty ratings. In addition, there should be nobody who runs the site- instead, the full control of things like the site layout should be open to anyone inside and outside the Interguild to make their contributions.
