Necromancer? Neighbour? Noisemaker? Nutcracker?

From now on if someone uses the word "necromancer" it must be at least 7 words away from the word "guy."

That would imply counting to some arbitrary integer. The joke was implying he was going to count ALL negative integers. So he would need to do what you said, and then take the limit as n approaches negative infinity.
