Editorial & Fact-Checking Policy

Status: Active Editorial Standard•Last Verified: September 2026•Published by BLOODMONEY Research Guild

This policy establishes the editorial guidelines, empirical verification protocols, and ethical principles that govern all publications on BLOODMONEY (blood-money.live).

§Three-Tier Fact-Checking Standard

To maintain unmatched credibility, all assertions on this site adhere to a three-tier evidential hierarchy:

Tier 1 (Official Canon): Information explicitly confirmed by developer SHROOMYCHRIST via official itch.io releases, patch logs, or verified developer comments.

Tier 2 (Empirical Playtest Data): Gameplay values, CPS timing curves, and branching thresholds derived through direct, reproducible in-game observation.

Tier 3 (Editorial Critique & Theory): Thematic interpretations, moral philosophy essays, and symbolic analyses, which are explicitly framed as subjective commentary.

§Commitment to Human Intellectual Authorship

We believe gaming journalism thrives on genuine human insight. Every strategy guide, mathematical calculator, and narrative critique published on this site is authored and curated by human analysts who have directly played, measured, and reflected upon the game.

We strictly prohibit automated content scraping and low-effort syndicated rewrites. Our goal is to provide unique intellectual value that respects the reader's time and intelligence.

§48-Hour Correction & Retraction Protocol

When factual inaccuracies, outdated version notes, or mathematical miscalculations are discovered, our editorial desk initiates verification within 24 hours and deploys corrections within 48 hours.

Readers, community speedrunners, and developers are encouraged to submit correction requests to [email protected], accompanied by timestamped footage, game build numbers, or source links.

§Attribution & Fair Use Standards

We explicitly honor SHROOMYCHRIST (Shroomychrist Studios) as the sole original creator of BLOODMONEY!, ensuring readers distinguish between official developer canon and our independent analytical companion materials.
