A short message but let's see how it fares..
Commandment 1: Thy shall ask others to prove it false
Not a lot of direct following of this commandment as there was no "maybe this could happen, prove it wrong approach"
Commandment 2: Thy shall state an opinion and declare it a fact
"Thanks for proving my point" is always a good indication that this commandment was duly followed.
Commandment 3: Thy shall hurl personal attacks
Overall tone and "stop spreading BS" are close enough.
Commandment 4: Thy shall assume
Assuming certain games get more or less "scrutany." Likely the mid stakes, with a ton more players using database programs, gets a lot more "scrutany."
Commandment 5: Thy hath no time to test thy theories
Goes without saying, but we will just give half credit here.
3.5 out of 5, not too bad for such a short post.
Thy are a true follower of riggedology.

Those three seem to come up over and over.
Commandments should stand the test of time. A lot of things are short term (Madov for instance) that will lose impact as a random unrelated shout out. Riggedologists will move onto the newer, sexier criminal to use for unrelated comparisons and what ifs.
UB/AP is often used incorrectly (since it was simple insider theft not software rigging), and there probably is a commandment in there somewhere based on misinterpreting information, but I will have to give it a bit more thought.
Riggedologist posts tend to help as they show the true nature of their beliefs, so no doubt the list will grow accordingly as we seem to have a nice fresh batch who are eager to be heard.
