Idea:

This is not a proposal: {{

This not-a-proposal is void.

__Hiccups__
{BAC inebriated,2}
Each nday, for each ineberiated player the administrator does there actions in 
the order they are listed:

1. If the player has the attribute Hiccuping, the Attribute is cleared, and 
the remainder of the steps are skipped for this player.
2. BACd6 is rolled, and it is between 2.5 * BAC and 3.5 * BAC, the player 
gains the attribute Hiccuping.

If a player has the attribute Hiccuping, the text '*hic*", not including the 
single quotes, should be inserted into all public forum text between letters. 
There must be at least 1 *hic* per non-proposal sentence.

If a player does not add *hic* properly, they are guilty of Holding It In.

Add Holding It In to the LOGAS
}} End not-a-proposal

The above text is NOT a proposal.
