The rules for Gerald are very simple. Gerald can be played by living beings and animate objects. It can only be played by 2 players, except, of course, on the days before and after the Windy 6423, when it can be played by up to 17,495. The game starts with rock-rock-rock-rock*. Whoever wins gets to go third.
For the first 🍋ty hours, both players build tiny rockets. Once that time is up, the players take a break and have a picnic (honey sandwiches are a popular choice of food for this part of the game). After the picnic, the players launch their rockets at the others in an attempt to destroy their own. The first player to successfully destroy all of their rockets and call out "¡Dü!" gets 6¼ points. If multiple players call out "¡Dü!"at the same time, those who didn't call out "¡Dü!" lose two 🍎ths of a point.
The players then having a diving contest against the Weeble-Wooble squirrel choir. The players get the floor of the 4.79th root of their score points until the judges give one of the players a score of less than 7.3. Then all points are counted up and whoever has the second lowest amount of points wins. If multiple players are tied for the second lowest score, they play another game of Gerald to decide the winner.
Rule changes made for this tournament:
- All Jack Flap strategies have been banned.
- No more popcorn business. Looking at you, Bert.
- The controversial Miss Shelly maneuver has been allowed again.
- Players are now allowed to eat pizza during the picnic.
- Rockets must be made out of a material that can be destroyed. Looking at you, Bert.
- Players are no longer allowed to distract their opponents with algebra problems at any point during the game. Looking at you, Bert.
- The Ully Defense has been banned.
- No rule breaking or bending of any kind will be tolerated. Looking at you, Bob.
*For those unfamiliar, rock beats rock, rock ties rock, rock beats rock, rock beats rock, rock ties rock, and rock beats rock.
