Refiling rules is secured. } [This is maybe arguably not necessary based on the exact wording of R2221, but better safe than sorry.] ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ID: 8842 Title: Losing Focus Adoption index: 2.0 Author: Pilgore Co-authors: nix, Jason, Madrid Repeal R2638 (Player Focuses) Repeal R2605 (Ministries) Amend R2645 (The Stones) to delete the bullet point which reads: Concentration Stone (monthly, 60%): A specified player (defaulting to the wielder if not specified) gains the Grant associated with eir Focus. and replace it with: Jockey Stone (monthly, 60%): A specified Running horse's Race Position is increased by 1. If at the time this proposal is adopted the Concentration Stone is owned by a player, that player becomes the owner of the Jockey Stone. Otherwise, Agora becomes the owner of the Jockey Stone. ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ID: 8843 Title: Time B Safe Adoption index: 4.0 Author: G. Co-authors: Jason, Murphy Amend Rule 1698 (Agora Is A Nomic) by replacing: adopted within a four-week period. with: adopted within a real-world (UTC) four-week period. [ In discord, a Power-5 Rule was suggested: "Rules to the contrary notwithstanding, this rule CANNOT be changed in January or February of 2023". Up until the time a proposal to change this rule could take effect before January 2023, Agora would not be ossified. But then you cross a time boundary and Agora would become ossified. One *possible* interpretation of > If any other single change or inseparable group of changes to the > gamestate would cause Agora to become ossified, or would cause > Agora to cease to exist, it is cancelled and does not occur, rules > to the contrary notwithstanding. is that the "cancelled change" would be time passing! With the conclusion that time had (as a legal fiction) stopped, with no way of getting it started again. So this proposal puts an extra protection on time by making it clear that only "real world" time is relevant. The title a reference B nomic, an established nomic some years back that was killed when they accidentally stopped time or at least couldn't get it started again. ] ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ID: 8844 Title: Fix dreams Adoption index: 2.0 Author: 4st Co-authors: Jason For Rule 2675 'Dream of Wandering', change its power to 2. ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ID: 8846 Title: The Cheepening Adoption index: 1.0 Author: Secretsnail9 Co-authors: Amend Rule 2661 (Permits) by replacing "A player CAN buy a beast permit by paying a fee of 50 boatloads of coins." with "A player CAN buy a beast permit by paying a fee of 30 boatloads of coins." and by replacing "A player CAN renew eir beast permit by paying a fee of 25 boatloads of coins." with "A player CAN renew eir beast permit by paying a fee of 15 boatloads of coins." Amend Rule 2663 (Bird Migration) by replacing "A player CAN buy bird food by paying a fee of 5 boatloads of coins." with "A player CAN buy bird food by paying a fee of 3 boatloads of coins." Amend Rule 2675 (Dream of Wandering) by replacing - Dream of Beasts: E CAN buy bird food by paying a fee of 3 boatloads of coins. E CAN buy a Beast Permit by paying a fee of 40 boatloads of coins. E CAN renew a Beast Permit by paying a fee of 20 boatloads of coins. with - Dream of Beasts: E CAN buy bird food by paying a fee of 2 boatloads of coins. E CAN buy a Beast Permit by paying a fee of 20 boatloads of coins. E CAN renew a Beast Permit by paying a fee of 10 boatloads of coins. [An effort to make birds more approachable. They always fly away when you get too close.] //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
