Well, it was intentional.  The title of the rule, which in and of itself has 
abolutly no effect on the game, is the longer version that is there so we 
know what the things are supposed to be emulating.  In the actual rules, I 
chose a shorter name.  Though I may do a revision in a couple days, and 
revise that.  As for the proto-part, proto means "before" or "first", like 
prototype; they're representing the first version of frozenedness (if that's 
a word).  I thought about making other types as I made this, but figured it 
would be easy enough to change if I, or someone else, did.

If I made any spelling "mistakes" in the [[bracketed]] parts, it's entirely 
intentional.  It's meant to indicate manner of speech.  If I did in the 
actual rules part, then they should be rectified or something.  I'll give it 
a look-over when I go to revise.
