Abstract

Most people believe that the principal weaknesses of vampires are sunlight, wooden stakes in inconvenient places, and extortionate dentist bills.Most people are mistaken.Being creatures of undeniably aristocratic persuasion, vampires fear social humiliation above all. In particular, exhibiting symptoms of haematological indigestion (typically induced by an incompatible blood type) constitutes a social death sentence, occasionally followed by the literal kind.In a generous attempt to save polite vampiric society from disaster of a gastric nature, Renfield, a devoted but emotionally challenged human, established the Buena Muerte Social Club. For a modest and entirely reasonable fee, vampires may join its Ghoul Exchange Programme, allowing them to trade prospective victims and avoid potentially explosive dietary mishaps.What algorithm should operate this fine establishment? Can we preserve both nourishment and decorum within the undead community? These are the pressing questions this paper humbly dares to address.
