| The worst part is that new rule one deserves a buzz for misspelling repl@aced. |

| Every j in my rule was replaced with the letter, uh, t. Just because there happened to not be j's is no reason for a Buzz. I followed every rule. |

| Hurray is word 54. Every 5th word must rhyme. Thusly, I challenge the Buzz. |

~wanders in, amazed that this is still going on~
Wait a sec... "hurray" doesn't rhyme with "know"! Buzz!
If this is a valid Buzz, I call dibs on the next Rule 1. |

Does this mean I can credit myself with a win on this? 
I won't be back in front of the computer until Friday in any event, so if no one decides to try it before then, I'll invoke the "one-month rule" and post a new Rule 1.
Of course, if anyone wants to try it before then ... "you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel lucky?' Well, do ya ... punk?"

| I was actually going to try this. I compiled most of the rules in summaries in a word document and stuff, but then I thought, what the hell am I doing this for? And so I gave up. |

(Postscript: I'll have you know, planet_buzz, that I was going to cite you by name for your rhyming rule as part of Rule 9, but wasn't prepared to deal with the smart-asses who would have called your name two words if I'd made it one, and vice versa.)

Yay! I'm an example!
Unfortunately, I'm gonna have to BUZZ you, since you're one Q word short.

| Rule 2: Replace the letter of the alphadet of the rule you are making with the letter that falls twice that numder in the alphadet. Not too unreasonadle, is it? |

Well, I like my rule-that-never-was, so I'm going to use it anyway. Just try to stop me. 
Rule 1: Because of my penchant for polysyllabic words, every rule must contain at least one word of five or more syllables. |
