I don't like it. It's messy, unweildy, and the mandadory monthly audits
shouldn't be in there.

Monthly audits could be removed. What do you find to be particularly
messy or unwieldy? It's no longer than the current hand limits rule.

It feels like it's duplicating much of the logic of NoVs. And I don't
like the separation between creating and closing audits.

Maybe this would be a good time to add With N (Days) Notice to R1728(a).
A person CAN, under certain secured circumstances, audit an entity With
4 Days Notice.


Also, why rule-defined? Isn't protection of namespace/scope/whatever
it's called implicit?

I was using NoVs as a 'template' of sorts for audits. However, your
with notice idea may be a cleaner method. My intent was that an
audited player would have 3 days to get their hand back to the correct
size or face penalty (rests if they are active and chose to ignore the
audit, or destruction if they are inactive and unable to respond).
However, to give the audited player some control they can close the
audit themselves at the time of their choosing before those 3 days
elapse. with notice wouldn't allow this, and thus the player
initiating the audit would have control over when to perform the audit
action and could (at the last minute) transfer a bunch of cards to the
audited player to inflate their penalty.

Hmm...maybe it would work if it read A person CAN (with restrictions)
audit an entity with 4 days notice unless the entity has been audited
during that time. An entity CAN audit emself by announcement.

G. brought this up when I protoed an earlier version of this. A
contract could define its own cards and then deal large quantities of
them to players causing them to exceed their hand limit.
