Daily post #44 in a 50 part series leading up to April 1, 2017
Brindle Swan has a bit of a fever, and doesn't feel like posting today. WAAH!!!
But, but . . .

Sure, there was no specific statement that every single day there would be a post, but still . . .
In post #42 we talk about a new account with a new purpose:
@brindleswan-hub will not be an account for general blog posting, but rather for providing basic contact info, links to our other accounts, posts with a new tag #commitments-made, posts with evidence of #commitments-kept, public balances maintained according to commitments, comments from those appreciative of commitments kept, or providing evidence if they weren't. Steemians can also send a .001 Steem "tip" to make a negative or positive comment immortal in the blockchain. The Steemit reputation score of this account will likely stay very low, but it will be a new way to actually build a reputation on a blockhain, based on keeping promises, and new portals into the Steem blockchain, with new formulas can provide a non-blogging based reputation score that can be used in team building within the fOoLs Project.
Now we realize we need a few more uses for this account: to document when commitments are admittedly not kept, make apologies and make restitution. Restitution can be in the form of labor, say spend an hour or however long on reddit/r/politics engaging in intellectual battle to promote the RAPP, or monetarily -- transfer 10SBD to a fOoLsPaRtY new member jackpot incentive fund. We might be able to grow quite a fund with the equivalent of a group "swear jar".
Another realization today, is that for the RAPP to have teeth, we need a way to call out others when their behavior is not in accordance with the reduction of aggression. Ten months ago, @brindleswan made $3.00 reposting this article about Periscope using "Flash Juries" to fight trolling:

It strikes us now that this could be another mechanism of use to the fOoLsPaRtY to handle those taking the RAPP, but not taking it seriously.
nice post @foolsparty
Thanks @silvia
