23. To insure the loyalty of my servents, I will provide a full health, vision and dental plan.

24. I will not eat ostentaious feast that will require me to devote manpower from my legions of terror to hunting rare animals and cooking them, see number three or a simple TV dinner and fermented apple juice will be fine.

(I'm surprised no one posted this one yet.)
25. I will NOT recruit the hero, or anyone in his group; they WILL be a double agent.
26. Plan for the future. If the technology exists, create a clone, flash all your memories to it, and set a wake up timer for a few years in the future. Re-set as needed. If the tech doesn't exist, create it.

(That's because 25 is already covered in the original list.)
27. However, in doing Number 26, I will not forget Number 9.

28. I will never use a love potion for anything, ever. In fact, as soon as I come to power, all love potions will be destroyed, any spell books that contain the formulas for them will be confiscated and placed in my safe deposit box alongside my source of power and one weakness (See the original Overlord List), and any Wiccans, warlocks, witches, sorcerors, aged crones or gypsies will be summarily mindwiped to remove any and all knowledge of said love potions.

(Don't forget the alchemists, John. They can make potions, too.)

(It's J.T., and they're more concerned with Lead into Gold than love potions... hell, with that goal, I'd even fund their work.)

29. Any spell or ancient prophecy of power that involves traveling to far off places outside my empire or in parts where I, for some reason, do not have thousands of troops garrisoned, will be summarily disregarded in favor of one that can be cast or fulfilled from the safety of my headquarters.

30. Although it may anger my father (or mother), brother (or sister), or uncle (or aunt), any bumbling relatives that I have such as siblings, nieces or nephews, or cousins will be summarily executed upon my ascension to power. You have no idea how many plans of Evil Overlords' backfire because of bumbling relatives...

31. Because I am the Evil Overlord, I will be unable to make mistakes, therefore, anything that goes wrong will be blamed on the most worthless underling I have and they will be summarily executed. This will also help inspire my underlings to do their best not to be worthless if they want to live. (What? I'm an Evil Overlord, I can do these things.)

32. Construction of my doomsday weapon, whether in part or hole, will not be outsourced, as this leaves clues for my enemies to track. By the same token, all my henchmen's weapons will be reverse engineered copies of commercially availible firearms so as not to be distinctive or easilly traced.

33. I will understand the meaning of the phrase "Redundancy" and apply it to important things like weapons manufactoring plants, power sources, shield generators, life-support systems, environmental controls, etc. and so on.
34. I will hire the best hardware and software designers in the world to create my fortress's computer system to ensure that I will not have to deal with slow access or terminals crashing for no reason.
35. Pursuant to #34, any slow access or crashed terminals will be treated as an attack by the heroes and met with the approprite amount of force: Lethal.

36. All henchmen will have vital sign monitors. When one indicates unconsciousness (outside sleep schedules, naturally) or death, an immediate lock-down will be triggered.

37. Pursant to rules 21 and 152 of the original Evil Overlord list, my fashion designer will be informed that cloaks and robes have no place in my wardrobe, too many Evil Overlords who wear those get defeated.
