Editing Round 9/History (section)

=== Combining Fruits ===

On 4 April 2021, we had yet another innocuous proposal. This time, it was Proposal Shakes by Nyhilo.

{{Proposal Box
 | name=Shakes
 | text=
Ammed rule '''Fruit''' by adding the following paragraph below the table in that rule.
:Smoothies are Fruits that can be crafted by a player performing the Make Smoothie Quacktion through one of their ducks. A Smoothie is made by combining 2 different non-Smoothie Fruits. Upon creation, the resulting Smoothie is named using an unambiguous combination of the names of the Fruits used to make it. The resulting Smoothie has a description that is a combination of the descriptions of the Fruits used to make it, substituting the names of the Fruits in the description for the name of the Smoothie.

Add the following Quacktion to the table in the Quacktion rule:
:Name: Make Smoothie
:Cost: 5 quacks
:Target: None
:Effect: Craft a Smoothie from Fruits as specified in the Fruit rule
}}

There was a bit of confusion about the effectiveness of the actions this proposal facilitated, but the really interesting part didn't come until 16 April when Jumble tried to make a blood orange-watermelon smoothie and specify the text of the description<ref>https://discord.com/channels/515560801394753537/795369457340907561/832679097120325672</ref>.

<blockquote>I spend 5 Quacks on LTS [Literally This Sentence, one of Jumble's ducks] to preform the "make smoothie" action with a blood orange and a watermelon slice, resulting in a blood orange watermelon smoothie, with the following description: "its owner wins the round. oldfskg uud ue  t ah eimodoeerdiimdlotd o u  nfc nrbinhogtnsgfoa eeoi u kc fapcnsoah  ynnem,maskta cfcl tiieiotadi  eed vmt  tttsomp ttar bi.1notialdpes Incsol au  ur3e cer rfchosg n'd hnqero , dreonpkoikog lueetfhct  rru o  ds"</blockquote>

This action was immediately shot down by a ruling<ref>[[Round 9/Rulings#Ruling 38]]</ref>; however it was also ruled that Jumble did in fact create a smoothie, just not one with the specified text<ref>[[Round 9/Rulings#Ruling 39]]</ref>.
