Gaseous Snake Revised: AMP
Quote from the anti-munch project:
"Gaseous Snake: A combination of McFly and Lucky Irishmen. They will often attempt to alter the RP right after the fairly playing RPer has made a post that will see the Snake's demise. They are not, however, as desperate as McFlys in what they change.
Munch Rating: 6
A: I walk to the door and open it.
B: Being a fellow with a bit of foresight, I hooked that doorknob to a car battery an hour ago. You're thrown across the room."

Clairifying Gaseous Snake: What is gaseous snake exactly?
The complaint about gaseous snake and the reason it is
considered godmoding, is because it strips too much
realism from the fantasy for it to be worthwhile.
Gaseous Snake does this by giving the godmoder who
is abusing this style of cheating, the ability to do things,
before it is too late in situations where it is already too late.
The godmoder commiting this act of "creative writing
vandalism" is simply so obssessed with victory over
the threatening situation at hand that they take the
godmoding to the extreme of preforming an action,
to take advantage of an oppertunity that has already
ended too long ago to be put to use, in the way the
godmoder tries to use it..
Q: When am I being a gaseous snake?
A: You are being a gaseous snake when suddenly
say or describe that you did something in the past,
when it has not actually happened, and it is too
late for that action to accur.
Q: How do I avoid being a gaseous snake?
A: By not stating suddenly that you did
something that you never actually did.
Q: How do I know when someone else is
being a gaseous snake?
A: You will know when someone else is being
a gaseous snake because they will suddenly state
that they have done something in the past that
was never in a previous action or post.
In other words they try to edit the past with
a recent post and speak in past tense as if
the incident already accured.
