&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;An '''Acineen''' is a type of citrus fruit which grows predominantly around the forested area of [[Alezan]]. Its skin is the color of the brightest green, with a vibrant orange coloured flesh within. It measures on average one quarter of a [[nanit]] in diameter and is slightly oval in shape. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Its taste can best be described as zingy on the frontal palate with a tart aftertaste. Although one may consider it an acquired taste, it has gained popularity across the populations of Ghyll, with many regions finding their own unique methods of enjoyment. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In [[Folktown]] it is mixed with the luminous blue fruit of the [[fefferberry]] to create a fruit salad of the most starling contrasts in colour. The orange of the acineen and the blue of the fefferberries creates such a beautiful sight that it has come to be known as eye-food salad, for indeed it more wondrous to gaze at than it is to eat. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On campus at the [[Bute University]], students bide their time on Summer breaks with a concoction of exotic cacti from the [[Cactus forests]], dried in the sun and mixed with the zest of acineen. The mixture is then smoked in wither-pipes until participants fall madly in love with all that they encounter. The chemical role of acineen zest in this compound has yet to be tested, though it is speculated that it is added purely for the bittersweet taste which distracts from the horrendous taste of the cacti. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Amongst the mysterious occupants of [[Kebro-shepenor]], acineens are often distilled to create a hard liquor renown for it's potency. Those mainlanders who have managed to acquire this plonk have attested to its divine taste and inebriating effects. It is unclear how the occupants of Kebro-shepenor come to obtain this mainland fruit, though rumours exist of a black market in trading the fruit for the resultant liquor. This rumour might be explained by the phenomenon of [[darkships]] and the mysterious figures who load their cargo in the depth of night. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;__TOC__&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Round 2 begins May 14th. We are currently in '''mad-edit''' play, per the &amp;quot;Allow a two week period between rounds&amp;quot; section below. In short, everyone may edit or revise any entry, under the restriction that NO NEW FACTS WILL BE ADDED, merely clarifications and improvements. The Encyclopedants have started [[Encyclopedants Progress Report 26]] for scholars (and players) to leave their final End of Round 1 thoughts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Do you plan on playing regularly in Round 2?==&lt;br /&gt;
Yes. --[[User:Morbus Iff|Morbus Iff]] 14:42, 15 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ditto. --[[User:DrAckroyd|Dr. H. L. Ackroyd]] 16:05, 15 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Of course.  --[[User:Jcowan|John Cowan]] 02:32, 16 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unfortunately, no.  The divorce and job change have created too much chaos in my life.  I'll finish this round, but I cannot say when I'll be able to return. --[[User:PhineasCrank|Doctor Phineas Crank]] 10:00, 16 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
: Sorry to hear that, Doctor Crank. You'll be missed. --[[User:Jcowan|John Cowan]]&lt;br /&gt;
:: Sniff, sniff. --[[User:Morbus Iff|Morbus Iff]] 15:28, 16 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
New player, I'll be here!  --[[User:Undrhil|Trousle Undrhil]] 17:09, 16 Apr 2005 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
:Just like to make it known that from May 14 (start of Round 2) til May 20 (or so) I will more than likely be away from any internet access, so I will likely ''not'' have an entry for A for Round 2.  Just thought it should be known. --[[User:Undrhil|Trousle Undrhil]] 01:07, 25 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I'm new but I definitely want to be in on the next round. --[[User:xfalselogicx|Jonathon Howard]] 18:09, 20 Apr 2005&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I'm in for most of it, seeing as I'll be out of school then. Wish me luck on the job hunt though. --[[User:Theophenes|Theophenes]] 04:16, 21 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I'd like to play, though I'm not sure I can commit to every turn. But I'd like to express interest.  New user. --[[User:Lisa B. Underhalh|Lisa B. Underhalh]] 18:10, 21 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I would love to participate! --[[User:Finna Sunderhorn|Finna Sunderhorn]] 20:57, 21 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One would dearly love to write as much as possible in the upcoming round, yet the uncertainty concerning my future internet access prevents me from making any binding promises. I can, however, truthfully state that if circumstances allow I will most assuredly be a regular contributor. --[[User:Lankin|Lankin the Mad Mage]] 10:07, 22 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, new user. --[[User:Ahpsp|Ahpsp]] 10:45, 22 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I'll be happy to join. New user. --[[User:Dfaran L'Eniarc|Dfaran L'Eniarc]] 01:32, 24 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, I am very interested in playing this round. Life gets progressively more full, and I can't promise to play every week. But I miss playing Bindlet Ball, and want to know who killed Supetupheraraphes --[[User:DrBacchus|DrBacchus]] 11:15, 24 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, I'm new here. I have become very intrigued about this world, and I hope that I am able to produce interesting entries for round 2. In the meantime, I'll try to read as many entries as possible! --[[User:Mr. Stokes|Mr. Stokes]] 14:59, 24 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I would also like to join. It's quite a unique idea. But I have a suggestion. Would it be easier to get a free forum and link to that and have sections on all these things? I was kind of confused when I first came. --[[User:Ellidyr|Ellidyr]] 19:26, 24 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I fail to see how that would be easier. --[[User:Morbus Iff|Morbus Iff]] 08:14, 25 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Surely, a wiki is the ultimate form of a ''free forum''.  Since the wiki is the forum, why bother making a forum for a forum?  That would be equivalent to going to a grocery store and then using the in-store phone to order groceries to be delivered to your house, I think. --[[User:Undrhil|Trousle Undrhil]] 14:19, 25 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I'm game for Round 2, I've got a lil' over 14 days to read up!  --[[User:Nikos of Ant|Nikos of Ant]] 27 Apr 2005&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I may be playing for an unknown amount of time during some point in the near or far future of this game. --[[User:d8uv|Somebody]] 18:46, 28 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is incredibly cool.  I'm going to join up in May, and try not to butcher the wiki too badly. --[[User:Snafu Bohica|Snafu Bohica]] 13:03, 29 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This sounds incredible. I will join in May, and hope that my articles will be acceptable.&lt;br /&gt;
--[[User:Cauship|Cauship]] 10:47, 3 May 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wow, I'd really like to contribute to this, or at least watch it develop.  Hopefully I'll have read up on all the current articles by the time the next round starts.  Is there a way to submit drafts of articles for proofreading/suggestions before they become official entries? --[[User:Rufian|Rufian]] 02:56, 3 May 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Generally speaking, yes. Your article isn't &amp;quot;truly&amp;quot; submitted until the end of the turn. So, you could write a first draft on Monday, post it on the site, think about it on Tuesday, come back and edit it on Wednesday, finalize it Thursday, and then plead for a review. I also do a copyediting phase of the previous turn every Monday morning, and I'll usually catch errors then too and write about them in the &amp;quot;Discussion&amp;quot; page of the article itself. These errors are usually pretty small, so there's no problem with retroactively fixing them (or planning to explain them away in a future entry). --[[User:Morbus Iff|Morbus Iff]] 09:01, 3 May 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::I just wanted to make sure I have the correct understanding of procedues before Round 2 begins. On Saturday 14 May, I can submit an 'A' article. Being the 'A' turn, it doesn't have to be a pre-existing phantom. The turn finishes on the following Friday, by which time I have to have completed and finalised my 'A' entry. --[[User:Urik Orr|Urik Orr]] 04:00, 4 May 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::Does that necessarily mean that if it's not an 'A' turn, the entry has to be a pre-existing phantom? --[[User:Rufian|Rufian]] 18:10, 5 May 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::I think, though I am as new as you, that Rule #4 (on the ''Main Page'') answers your question, ie. ''After the first turn, all phantoms for a letter shall be written before new entries are created''.  If I read this correctly, once Turn 'B' starts we are limited to defining only already existing phantoms, unless and until they are all dibbed out.  This is my reading of the rule, if I am wrong, some of you in the know jump in.  --[[User:Nikos of Ant|Nikos of Ant]] 19:45, 5 May 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::The dates are confusing me, and it would be appreciated if someone could confirm that I'm understanding this correctly. I don't want to begin Round 2 by breaking rules. I have until the end of turn 1 (Friday 20 May) to upload an 'A' entry. On Saturday 21 May turn 2 begins and I dib a 'B' phantom. I then have until Friday 27 May to write my 'B' entry (which contains two new phantoms). The following day turn 3 begins and I dib a 'C' phantom. And so on. Have I assumed correctly? --[[User:Urik Orr|Urik Orr]] 23:02, 5 May 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I've just joined the group; looking forward to participating in an actively working wiki.  Any suggestions for orienting ourselves for new participants (shorter than reading everything on the whole site)? --[[User:Brother Arfrus|Brother Arfrus]] 10:52, 3 May 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Welp, hmm. You could read through the [[:Category:Encyclopedants|Encyclopedants]] pages to get a partial overview of the early rounds, as well as a global metaview of timelines, etc. But there's really no Overview or shortcut to Ghyll just yet. You could check out the [[Round 1 Spotlights]] too, to get an idea of what I considered the &amp;quot;best&amp;quot; entries for a particular turn. --[[User:Morbus Iff|Morbus Iff]] 11:20, 3 May 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::Thank you.  That helps get my research started.  I found the [[WhereIsWhere|Ghyll Geography]] also to be useful.  As a cloistered researcher with limited resources, I hope to concentrate on just a few topics of interest. --[[User:Brother Arfrus|Brother Arfrus]] 10:38, 4 May 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Between Rounds==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A few people have noticed the natural tendency of a Lexicon to have its earliest entries &amp;quot;outdated&amp;quot; by the time you get into the mid- or end- game. For instance, we know a bit more about [[Ghyllian reproduction]], a little more about ''this'', and a lot more about ''that''. An in-game solution proposed by [[User:Morbus Iff|Morbus Iff]] seemed to also be plausible out of game. Basically, since Round 1 is a &amp;quot;formalized&amp;quot; attempt by the Encyclopedants to create an Encyclopedia, Round 1 could be considered a &amp;quot;First Edition Draft&amp;quot; of the Encyclopedia. Round 2, on the other hand, would be a &amp;quot;Second Edition Draft&amp;quot; and so on. Thus, the time between Round 1 and Round 2 would be used to edit, fix and enhance any and all previous entries.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Allow a two week period between rounds===&lt;br /&gt;
* Write up in-game &amp;quot;End of Year&amp;quot; reports.&lt;br /&gt;
* Finish up any discussions on this page.&lt;br /&gt;
* Take a break and collect your thoughts.&lt;br /&gt;
* Mad-edit anything that needs to.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Allow scholars to revamp previous round's entries===&lt;br /&gt;
* One edit per turn to ANY entry, in addition to regular round rules.&lt;br /&gt;
* No NEW facts, just revamped to include missing/clarified facts.&lt;br /&gt;
* No dibbing on edits; if necc. mad-edits are collaborative.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Rule Changes==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[User:Jcowan|I've]] deleted the proposed rule changes that didn't win scholarly consensus or didn't survive the [[User:Morbus Iff|Mighty Stomp]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Of your two phantom citations, only one can be new===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is important to keep down the proliferation of phantoms;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;at the end of Round 1, we have almost as many phantoms as articles.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Rule of A: Scholars may always write new, non-phantom, turn A entries===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The goal is to ensure that every round has a &amp;quot;fresh start&amp;quot; with new branches of story. By not requiring a phantom to be defined for letter 'A' (regardless of leftover phantoms from previous rounds), we're always &amp;quot;starting&amp;quot; fresh with new, as opposed to already established, content. Of course, Truth from previous rounds must still be accepted as such, and existing 'A' phantoms may be dibbed if a player so decides.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:So, in other words, if we are starting a new Round and there are 5 phantoms for A but I don't like any of those phantoms, I can create a new entry for A and start from there?  Or would this apply to any turn in a round in which there are no phantoms in existance for that turn?  No C phantoms on turn 3, for example. --[[User:Undrhil|Trousle Undrhil]] 01:10, 25 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::Yes, both. There is already a rule that, if there are no valid phantoms remaining for a letter, a scholar writes a brand new entry. This rule just gives turn A, and only turn A, more power than usual, solely because it is the start of a new Round. --[[User:Morbus Iff|Morbus Iff]] 08:50, 25 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Round 2 Themes==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The original Lexicon post suggests there should be a theme and goal to the entries being written. Since Ghyll, as a world, didn't exist, there was no theme to Round 1: it was ultimately &amp;quot;make a world&amp;quot;.  Scholarly consensus established that Round 2 will have no theme either, but the themes formerly proposed here have been transplanted to [[User:Morbus Iff/themes]].&lt;br /&gt;

Just thought it should be known. --[[User:Undrhil|Trousle Undrhil]] 01:07, 25 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I'm new but I definitely want to be in on the next round. --[[User:xfalselogicx|Jonathon Howard]] 18:09, 20 Apr 2005&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I'm in for most of it, seeing as I'll be out of school then. Wish me luck on the job hunt though. --[[User:Theophenes|Theophenes]] 04:16, 21 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I'd like to play, though I'm not sure I can commit to every turn. But I'd like to express interest.  New user. --[[User:Lisa B. Underhalh|Lisa B. Underhalh]] 18:10, 21 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I would love to participate! --[[User:Finna Sunderhorn|Finna Sunderhorn]] 20:57, 21 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One would dearly love to write as much as possible in the upcoming round, yet the uncertainty concerning my future internet access prevents me from making any binding promises. I can, however, truthfully state that if circumstances allow I will most assuredly be a regular contributor. --[[User:Lankin|Lankin the Mad Mage]] 10:07, 22 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, new user. --[[User:Ahpsp|Ahpsp]] 10:45, 22 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I'll be happy to join. New user. --[[User:Dfaran L'Eniarc|Dfaran L'Eniarc]] 01:32, 24 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, I am very interested in playing this round. Life gets progressively more full, and I can't promise to play every week. But I miss playing Bindlet Ball, and want to know who killed Supetupheraraphes --[[User:DrBacchus|DrBacchus]] 11:15, 24 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yes, I'm new here. I have become very intrigued about this world, and I hope that I am able to produce interesting entries for round 2. In the meantime, I'll try to read as many entries as possible! --[[User:Mr. Stokes|Mr. Stokes]] 14:59, 24 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I would also like to join. It's quite a unique idea. But I have a suggestion. Would it be easier to get a free forum and link to that and have sections on all these things? I was kind of confused when I first came. --[[User:Ellidyr|Ellidyr]] 19:26, 24 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I fail to see how that would be easier. --[[User:Morbus Iff|Morbus Iff]] 08:14, 25 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Surely, a wiki is the ultimate form of a ''free forum''.  Since the wiki is the forum, why bother making a forum for a forum?  That would be equivalent to going to a grocery store and then using the in-store phone to order groceries to be delivered to your house, I think. --[[User:Undrhil|Trousle Undrhil]] 14:19, 25 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I'm game for Round 2, I've got a lil' over 14 days to read up!  --[[User:Nikos of Ant|Nikos of Ant]] 27 Apr 2005&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I may be playing for an unknown amount of time during some point in the near or far future of this game. --[[User:d8uv|Somebody]] 18:46, 28 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is incredibly cool.  I'm going to join up in May, and try not to butcher the wiki too badly. --[[User:Snafu Bohica|Snafu Bohica]] 13:03, 29 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This sounds incredible. I will join in May, and hope that my articles will be acceptable.&lt;br /&gt;
--[[User:Cauship|Cauship]] 10:47, 3 May 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wow, I'd really like to contribute to this, or at least watch it develop.  Hopefully I'll have read up on all the current articles by the time the next round starts.  Is there a way to submit drafts of articles for proofreading/suggestions before they become official entries? --[[User:Rufian|Rufian]] 02:56, 3 May 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Generally speaking, yes. Your article isn't &amp;quot;truly&amp;quot; submitted until the end of the turn. So, you could write a first draft on Monday, post it on the site, think about it on Tuesday, come back and edit it on Wednesday, finalize it Thursday, and then plead for a review. I also do a copyediting phase of the previous turn every Monday morning, and I'll usually catch errors then too and write about them in the &amp;quot;Discussion&amp;quot; page of the article itself. These errors are usually pretty small, so there's no problem with retroactively fixing them (or planning to explain them away in a future entry). --[[User:Morbus Iff|Morbus Iff]] 09:01, 3 May 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::I just wanted to make sure I have the correct understanding of procedues before Round 2 begins. On Saturday 14 May, I can submit an 'A' article. Being the 'A' turn, it doesn't have to be a pre-existing phantom. The turn finishes on the following Friday, by which time I have to have completed and finalised my 'A' entry. --[[User:Urik Orr|Urik Orr]] 04:00, 4 May 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I've just joined the group; looking forward to participating in an actively working wiki.  Any suggestions for orienting ourselves for new participants (shorter than reading everything on the whole site)? --[[User:Brother Arfrus|Brother Arfrus]] 10:52, 3 May 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Welp, hmm. You could read through the [[:Category:Encyclopedants|Encyclopedants]] pages to get a partial overview of the early rounds, as well as a global metaview of timelines, etc. But there's really no Overview or shortcut to Ghyll just yet. You could check out the [[Round 1 Spotlights]] too, to get an idea of what I considered the &amp;quot;best&amp;quot; entries for a particular turn. --[[User:Morbus Iff|Morbus Iff]] 11:20, 3 May 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Between Rounds==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A few people have noticed the natural tendency of a Lexicon to have its earliest entries &amp;quot;outdated&amp;quot; by the time you get into the mid- or end- game. For instance, we know a bit more about [[Ghyllian reproduction]], a little more about ''this'', and a lot more about ''that''. An in-game solution proposed by [[User:Morbus Iff|Morbus Iff]] seemed to also be plausible out of game. Basically, since Round 1 is a &amp;quot;formalized&amp;quot; attempt by the Encyclopedants to create an Encyclopedia, Round 1 could be considered a &amp;quot;First Edition Draft&amp;quot; of the Encyclopedia. Round 2, on the other hand, would be a &amp;quot;Second Edition Draft&amp;quot; and so on. Thus, the time between Round 1 and Round 2 would be used to edit, fix and enhance any and all previous entries.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Allow a two week period between rounds===&lt;br /&gt;
* Write up in-game &amp;quot;End of Year&amp;quot; reports.&lt;br /&gt;
* Finish up any discussions on this page.&lt;br /&gt;
* Take a break and collect your thoughts.&lt;br /&gt;
* Mad-edit anything that needs to.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Allow scholars to revamp previous round's entries===&lt;br /&gt;
* One edit per turn to ANY entry, in addition to regular round rules.&lt;br /&gt;
* No NEW facts, just revamped to include missing/clarified facts.&lt;br /&gt;
* No dibbing on edits; if necc. mad-edits are collaborative.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Rule Changes==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[User:Jcowan|I've]] deleted the proposed rule changes that didn't win scholarly consensus or didn't survive the [[User:Morbus Iff|Mighty Stomp]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Of your two phantom citations, only one can be new===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is important to keep down the proliferation of phantoms;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;at the end of Round 1, we have almost as many phantoms as articles.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Rule of A: Scholars may always write new, non-phantom, turn A entries===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The goal is to ensure that every round has a &amp;quot;fresh start&amp;quot; with new branches of story. By not requiring a phantom to be defined for letter 'A' (regardless of leftover phantoms from previous rounds), we're always &amp;quot;starting&amp;quot; fresh with new, as opposed to already established, content. Of course, Truth from previous rounds must still be accepted as such, and existing 'A' phantoms may be dibbed if a player so decides.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:So, in other words, if we are starting a new Round and there are 5 phantoms for A but I don't like any of those phantoms, I can create a new entry for A and start from there?  Or would this apply to any turn in a round in which there are no phantoms in existance for that turn?  No C phantoms on turn 3, for example. --[[User:Undrhil|Trousle Undrhil]] 01:10, 25 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::Yes, both. There is already a rule that, if there are no valid phantoms remaining for a letter, a scholar writes a brand new entry. This rule just gives turn A, and only turn A, more power than usual, solely because it is the start of a new Round. --[[User:Morbus Iff|Morbus Iff]] 08:50, 25 Apr 2005 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Round 2 Themes==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The original Lexicon post suggests there should be a theme and goal to the entries being written. Since Ghyll, as a world, didn't exist, there was no theme to Round 1: it was ultimately &amp;quot;make a world&amp;quot;.  Scholarly consensus established that Round 2 will have no theme either, but the themes formerly proposed here have been transplanted to [[User:Morbus Iff/themes]].&lt;br /&gt;
