Proto - Enact the following rule, Charities: Donation Level is a natural switch for contracts, tracked by the Notary, with a default of 0 and a maximum of 25. A contract with nonzero donation level is called a Charity. The Notary CAN flip a contract's donation level to a non-default value with 3 Agoran consent, provided e has not done so for any contract in the current Agoran month. This SHOULD only be done if the contract's provisions ensure that its funds will be used solely for the betterment of Agora. Any player CAN flip a contract's donation level to 0 with Agoran consent. Whenever a payday occurs, half of each charity's coin holdings (rounded down) are destroyed, and then each charity earns a number of coins equal to its donation level. [the 'half are destroyed' bit is because we don't want charities to build up big bankrolls if they don't give things away]. -
