I interpret CATCH22, ALLY, and TRAP as basic keywords. There is a space there between ZAP and ALLY, but I think it's just to delineate basic keywords that do something every time versus the meta basic keywords. You either add a small punishment, or you use ALLY, TRAP, CATCH22 to set up a larger punishment based on the next post. ALLY+TRAP is a big punishment, but it could also not trigger and get wasted. That's part of the fun of it, to dodge the traps; it would defeat the purpose if every post could contain a TRAP for free.
There's the basic keywords and the special keywords that are limited to one per user; there's no mention of a third category that are unlimited. I thought the note for ALLY only applying to a basic keyword is so that it can't be combined with BULLY (an ALLY DOUBLE BULLY would add 3 days, which is a lot) and other 1 time/user keywords, but it doesn't mean that ALLY isn't a basic keyword. Also, ALLY works with TRAP specially because TRAP is a basic keyword and TRAP is in the same grouping as ALLY.
Anyway, that's how I interpreted the promise, so that's how I'm going to record it.
