    I now want to see/create an instance with an obscene list of rules so strict that the only thing you can post is a certain image once a year within an hour window. Like the troll face or something stupid.

    But the rules are worded in such a way that unless you take notes and really study them, it doesn’t make sense.

      Rule 1: Posts are permissible during the fourth month’s 4th day, but only when the clock’s small hand points due south.

      Rule 2: The Troll, as he grinned during 2012’s chill, is the sole emblem of our realm. Later or prior renderings are unfit.

      Rule 3: While the Troll remains unchanging, each portrayal must subtly differ from its kin, shifting like sand but not a dune.

      Rule 4: Titles should channel Zamenhof’s spirit but remain curt, and oddly silent of nature’s a, e, i, o, and u.

      Rule 5: Responses must echo the well-known bard, but only select words in his verses, prime in their positions.

      Rule 6: Engage if your tales match the steps between the first two perfect squares, and your chats conclude like a nonet.

      Rule 7: Lend your upvote if your time in this realm spans three solar cycles, give or take a week. But to downvote, you must wear a name with thrice the breath and twice the beat.

      Rule 8: Profiles that dance or flicker are deemed unworthy and face banishment.
