Regulation AM0/5 Generalized Auction Generalized auctions exist to give context to the form of other types of auctions. They CANNOT be held directly. Other auction methods that use this type of auction as a starting point can override attributes of generalized auctions except when it is explicitly stated that that attribute is not able to be overridden. INITIATION: When a person CAN begin an auction by this or any derivative method, e CAN only do so by specifying the type of auction method to be held, a list of lots to be auctioned off, and the currency for the auction in a public message (henceforth the "initiation message"). The bidding period starts at this point. BIDDING: Players CAN place a bid on an auction in its bidding period by creating a public message (henceforth a "bid message") specifying an amount of that auction's currency. Players CAN withdraw from an open auction by announcement. EXCLUSIVITY: Bids in an auction are grouped into classes of that auction. Unless otherwise specified, all bids in a given auction are in a single class. A bid CANNOT be made if, in the class it would be in, another bid already exists with the bid amount of the hypothetical bid. TERMINATION: The bidding period ends four days after the final instance of any of the following events' occurance: * the auction begins * a bid is placed * a player withdraws from the auction AWARDING: For each auction, there are a number of awardees equal to the number of lots. The Nth lot of an auction goes to the Nth awardee of that auction. If the identity of an awardee is undecidable, then that lot cannot be given away. Auction methods specify how awardees are picked for auctions using that method. PAYMENT AMOUNT: The amount that an awardee in an auction is required to pay for eir lot is, unless otherwise specified, the amount of the auction's curency specified in eir highest bid on that auction. FUNDED PLAYERS: Derivative auction methods should ensure that only players who, at the end of an auction's bidding period, have at least as much of that auction's currency as the amount that e is required to pay in that auction (hereafter "funded players") can be selected as awardees for auctions using that auction method. DISTRIBUTION: To distribute lots in an auction is to: * publish a reasonably accurate full history of bids on the auction and withdrawals from the auction, and * for each awardee in that auction, revoke the amount to be paid from that awardee and transfer to that player (or grant em if the item is new) the set of assets associated with the lot e won. The Auctioneer for an auction CAN, by announcement within fourteen days after the bidding period for an auction ends, and SHALL, in a timely fashion after that same point, distribute lots. The message in which e does so is the "resolution message" for that auction. ACTIVE BIDS: The set of active bids for an auction is the set of all funded, non-withdrawn players' highest bids on that auction.

[Requires intent for the formation of a group person. This prevents a random group of people confederated for some other purpose (the example initially raised was BlogNomic, or its set of players) from being treated as a group person, unless they also wish to confederate for the purposes of Agora.] // ID: 8867 Title: Expectations, Values, Bans, and Forgiveness Adoption index: 3.0 Author: nix Co-authors: Jason, R. Lee, Murphy, G. [ The goal of this is to expand on our banning system and implement some clearly defined values into the rules of Agora. This comprises two main changes. The first removes the "free speech" clause from R478 and replaces it with a bill of expectations that largely seek to maximize participation while recognizing ways in which that might reasonably be abridged. Nothing here is strictly binding. The second one expands on the banning system largely through guidelines. It does not actually add any new mechanisms for banning or unbanning, but offers a strongly-worded procedure for what should occur before a ban, and what kind of actions might constitute bannable offenses. It also adds an official mechanism to attempt to appeal a ban, and what should be considered when such an attempt is received. This is largely informed by Jason's current ban system, Murphy's response to Anti-Cleisthenes, R. Lee's values proto, and parallel discussions in other spaces. Hopefully I have done justice to everyone's viewpoints. ] Amend R478 by deleting the following text: Freedom of speech being essential for the healthy functioning of any non-Imperial nomic, it is hereby resolved that no Player shall be prohibited from participating in the Fora, nor shall any person create physical or technological obstacles that unduly favor some players' fora access over others. Enact a new Power=3 rule titled "Expectations of Participation" with the following text: An "Agoran forum" is a forum with publicity of discussion or public. Players of Agora have the following expectations of agoran fora: * Agoran fora allow equal participation for all players, subject to the rules of Agora and the explicitly stated rules of the fora. * The rules of participation in public fora are as closely aligned with the rules of Agora itself as possible; a player expects to be able to fully participate in all public fora as long as eir participation is in line with Agora's rules. * Agoran fora allow all interested persons, even those that are otherwise restricted in eir participation, to read all messages. * Discussion fora moderators may restrict participation subject to eir own clearly stated rules but should only do so to players temporarily and proportional to the harm of the rule breakage. * The content of discussion fora should primarily be about Agora itself, or reasonably adjacent topics.

Rule 2585/7 (Power=1)
Birthday Gifts
It is considered to be a player's Agoran Birthday on the
anniversary of the day e first registered. If the day a player
first registered is unknown, that player CAN, with Agoran consent,
declare a day to be eir Agoran Birthday. As long as the day a
player first registered remains unknown, it is considered to be
eir Agoran Birthday on the anniversary of the day e most recently
declared as eir Agoran Birthday.
During a player's Agoran Birthday and the 7 days following, each
other player CAN once acknowledge that person's birthday by
announcement. Doing so grants the birthday player 3 boatloads of
coins if it is actually the day of the player's birthday, and 2
otherwise.
Players are ENCOURAGED to announce their Agoran Birthdays.

As selected on Discord #botspam, the rule for this week is Rule 1023
("Agoran Time"). I affirm under penalty of No Faking that, to the
best of my knowledge, the process used in this selection had the correct
distribution.
Please send suggestions if you have them!
The text of Rule 1023 is reproduced below for convenience:
Rule 1023/40 (Power=2)
Agoran Time
The following terms are defined:
1. The phrase "in a timely fashion" means "within 7 days". This
time period is set when the requirement is created (i.e. X days
before the limit ends). A requirement to perform an action at
an exact instant (e.g. "when X, Y SHALL Z"), but not "in the
same message", is instead interpreted as a requirement to
perform that action in a timely fashion after that instant.
2. The phrase "in an officially timely fashion" means "before the
end of the next Agoran week". This time period is set when the
requirement is created (i.e. between 7 and 14 days before the
period ends).
3. Agoran epochs:
1. Agoran days begin at midnight UTC.
2. Agoran weeks begin at midnight UTC on Monday. Eastman
weeks begin at midnight UTC on the 1st, 8th, 15th, 22nd,
and 29th of each Gregorian month; the fifth one of the
month (if any) lasts till the end of the month.
3. Agoran months begin at midnight UTC on the first day of
each Gregorian month.
4. Agoran quarters begin when the Agoran months of January,
April, July, and October begin.
5. Agoran years begin when the Agoran month of January
begins.
6. A pivot is either the instant at which Agora Nomic began
(June 30, 1993, 00:04:30 GMT +1200) or an instant at which
at least one person won the game. When used as a period of
time, a "Round" (historical syn: "game") is the period of
time between a pivot and the next pivot.
The "Agoran" qualifier is assumed unless a different definition
is indicated (e.g. Eastman weeks). These definitions do not
apply to relative durations (e.g. "within days after
").
4. Two points in time are within a month of each other if:
1. they occur in the same Agoran month;
2. they occur in two consecutive Agoran months, and the later
of the two occurs in an earlier day in the month than the
earlier one;
3. they occur in two consecutive Agoran months on the same day
of the month, and the later of the two occurs at the same
or earlier time of day.

Regulation AM0/5 Generalized Auction Generalized auctions exist to give context to the form of other types of auctions. They CANNOT be held directly. Other auction methods that use this type of auction as a starting point can override attributes of generalized auctions except when it is explicitly stated that that attribute is not able to be overridden. INITIATION: When a person CAN begin an auction by this or any derivative method, e CAN only do so by specifying the type of auction method to be held, a list of lots to be auctioned off, and the currency for the auction in a public message (henceforth the "initiation message"). The bidding period starts at this point. BIDDING: Players CAN place a bid on an auction in its bidding period by creating a public message (henceforth a "bid message") specifying an amount of that auction's currency. Players CAN withdraw from an open auction by announcement. EXCLUSIVITY: Bids in an auction are grouped into classes of that auction. Unless otherwise specified, all bids in a given auction are in a single class. A bid CANNOT be made if, in the class it would be in, another bid already exists with the bid amount of the hypothetical bid. TERMINATION: The bidding period ends four days after the final instance of any of the following events' occurance: * the auction begins * a bid is placed * a player withdraws from the auction AWARDING: For each auction, there are a number of awardees equal to the number of lots. The Nth lot of an auction goes to the Nth awardee of that auction. If the identity of an awardee is undecidable, then that lot cannot be given away. Auction methods specify how awardees are picked for auctions using that method. PAYMENT AMOUNT: The amount that an awardee in an auction is required to pay for eir lot is, unless otherwise specified, the amount of the auction's curency specified in eir highest bid on that auction. FUNDED PLAYERS: Derivative auction methods should ensure that only players who, at the end of an auction's bidding period, have at least as much of that auction's currency as the amount that e is required to pay in that auction (hereafter "funded players") can be selected as awardees for auctions using that auction method. DISTRIBUTION: To distribute lots in an auction is to: * publish a reasonably accurate full history of bids on the auction and withdrawals from the auction, and * for each awardee in that auction, revoke the amount to be paid from that awardee and transfer to that player (or grant em if the item is new) the set of assets associated with the lot e won. The Auctioneer for an auction CAN, by announcement within fourteen days after the bidding period for an auction ends, and SHALL, in a timely fashion after that same point, distribute lots. The message in which e does so is the "resolution message" for that auction. ACTIVE BIDS: The set of active bids for an auction is the set of all funded, non-withdrawn players' highest bids on that auction.

("Delivering Judgements"). I affirm under penalty of No Faking that, to the
best of my knowledge, the process used in this selection had the correct
distribution.
Please send suggestions if you have them!
The text of Rule 591 is reproduced below for convenience:
Rule 591/49 (Power=1.7)
Delivering Judgements
When a CFJ is open and assigned to a judge, that judge CAN assign
a valid judgement to it by announcement, and SHALL do so in a
timely fashion after this becomes possible.
The valid judgements for an inquiry case are as follows, based on
the facts and legal situation at the time the inquiry case was
initiated, not taking into account any events since that time:
* FALSE, appropriate if the statement was factually and
logically false.
* TRUE, appropriate if the statement was factually and
logically true.
* IRRELEVANT, appropriate if the veracity of the statement is
not relevant to the game or is an overly hypothetical
extrapolation of the game or its rules to conditions that don't
actually exist, or if it can be trivially determined from the
outcome of another (possibly still undecided) judicial case that
was not itself judged IRRELEVANT.
* INSUFFICIENT, appropriate if the statement does not come
with supporting arguments or evidence, and the judge feels as if
an undue burden is being placed on em by the lack of arguments
and evidence. A CFJ judged as INSUFFICIENT SHOULD be submitted
again with sufficient arguments/evidence.
* DISMISS, appropriate if the statement is malformed, undecidable,
if insufficient information exists to make a judgement with
reasonable effort, or the statement is otherwise not able to be
answered with another valid judgement. DISMISS is not
appropriate if PARADOXICAL is appropriate.
* PARADOXICAL, appropriate if the statement is logically
undecidable as a result of a paradox or or other irresovable
logical situation. PARADOXICAL is not appropriate if IRRELEVANT
is appropriate, nor is it appropriate if the undecidability
arises from the case itself or in reference to it.
If the judge of an open CFJ has not violated a time limit for
assigning it a judgement, and has not previously filed a motion to
either extend or reconsider the case, e CAN file a motion to
extend the case by announcement. Doing so extends eir judgement
deadline for that case by one week. In doing so, e SHOULD include
a (nonbinding) draft or outline of eir current thoughts on the
case.

Other auction methods that use this type of auction as a starting point can override attributes of generalized auctions except when it is explicitly stated that that attribute is not able to be overridden. INITIATION: When a person CAN begin an auction by this or any derivative method, e CAN only do so by specifying the type of auction method to be held, a list of lots to be auctioned off, and the currency for the auction in a public message (henceforth the "initiation message"). The bidding period starts at this point.

PAYMENT AMOUNT: The amount that an awardee in an auction is required to pay for eir lot is, unless otherwise specified, the amount of the auction's curency specified in eir highest bid on that auction. FUNDED PLAYERS: Derivative auction methods should ensure that only players who, at the end of an auction's bidding period, have at least as much of that auction's currency as the amount that e is required to pay in that auction (hereafter "funded players") can be selected as awardees for auctions using that auction method. DISTRIBUTION: To distribute lots in an auction is to: * publish a reasonably accurate full history of bids on the auction and withdrawals from the auction, and * for each awardee in that auction, revoke the amount to be paid from that awardee and transfer to that player (or grant em if the item is new) the set of assets associated with the lot e won.

OFF: [Stonemason] October Stone Auction
Pursuant to Rule 2642, I initiate a stone auction with the following lots: [Jockey Stone], [Recursion Stone]. The method to be used for this auction is a Selective-bid Auction, defined jointly by regulations AM0 and AM5. In case of contradiction between either the latest published ACORN or the platonic set of auction regulations and the below text, the below text shall control. Regulation AM0/5 Generalized Auction Generalized auctions exist to give context to the form of other types of auctions. They CANNOT be held directly. Other auction methods that use this type of auction as a starting point can override attributes of generalized auctions except when it is explicitly stated that that attribute is not able to be overridden. INITIATION: When a person CAN begin an auction by this or any derivative method, e CAN only do so by specifying the type of auction method to be held, a list of lots to be auctioned off, and the currency for the auction in a public message (henceforth the "initiation message"). The bidding period starts at this point. BIDDING: Players CAN place a bid on an auction in its bidding period by creating a public message (henceforth a "bid message") specifying an amount of that auction's currency. Players CAN withdraw from an open auction by announcement. EXCLUSIVITY: Bids in an auction are grouped into classes of that auction. Unless otherwise specified, all bids in a given auction are in a single class. A bid CANNOT be made if, in the class it would be in, another bid already exists with the bid amount of the hypothetical bid. TERMINATION: The bidding period ends four days after the final instance of any of the following events' occurance: * the auction begins * a bid is placed * a player withdraws from the auction AWARDING: For each auction, there are a number of awardees equal to the number of lots. The Nth lot of an auction goes to the Nth awardee of that auction. If the identity of an awardee is undecidable, then that lot cannot be given away. Auction methods specify how awardees are picked for auctions using that method. PAYMENT AMOUNT: The amount that an awardee in an auction is required to pay for eir lot is, unless otherwise specified, the amount of the auction's curency specified in eir highest bid on that auction. FUNDED PLAYERS: Derivative auction methods should ensure that only players who, at the end of an auction's bidding period, have at least as much of that auction's currency as the amount that e is required to pay in that auction (hereafter "funded players") can be selected as awardees for auctions using that auction method. DISTRIBUTION: To distribute lots in an auction is to: * publish a reasonably accurate full history of bids on the auction and withdrawals from the auction, and * for each awardee in that auction, revoke the amount to be paid from that awardee and transfer to that player (or grant em if the item is new) the set of assets associated with the lot e won. The Auctioneer for an auction CAN, by announcement within fourteen days after the bidding period for an auction ends, and SHALL, in a timely fashion after that same point, distribute lots. The message in which e does so is the "resolution message" for that auction. ACTIVE BIDS: The set of active bids for an auction is the set of all funded, non-withdrawn players' highest bids on that auction.

EXPERIMENT 00054 INTENT TO INVENT
I intend, with Agoran consent, to cause Rule 2655 to amend the Rule "The
Device" by appending the following a a list item to the "When the device
is on:" list:
{
If Device's Festivity has had the same nonzero value for 14 days or more, or if
it has a nonzero value and fewer than 5 players are Festive, then any player
CAN flip it to 0 by announcement.
}
OFF: [Mad Engineer] Experiment 00054 - Rule Selection
EXPERIMENT 00054 RULE SELECTION
As selected on Discord #botspam, the rule for this week is Rule 2480
("Festivals"). I affirm under penalty of No Faking that, to the
best of my knowledge, the process used in this selection had the correct
distribution.
Please send suggestions if you have them!
The text of Rule 2480 is reproduced below for convenience:
Rule 2480/6 (Power=3.1)
Festivals
Festivity is a secured singleton switch, whose possible values are
integers ranging from 0 inclusive to the number of defined types
of Ribbon exclusive, and defaulting to 0. Festivity is tracked in
the Tailor's monthly report. In addition, while Festivity is
non-zero, the Tailor SHALL announce its value each week; a public
document purporting to be such an announcement is self-ratifying.
If Agora's Festivity has had the same nonzero value for 14 days or
more, or if it has a nonzero value and fewer than 5 players are
Festive, then any player CAN flip it to 0 by announcement.
A person whose Laudability is greater than or equal to Agora's
Festivity is Festive. Any other person is not Festive.
A player who would be Festive if the Festivity was N CAN Start a
Rank N Festival, where N is an integer greater than Agora's
Festivity, with 4 support from other players who would be Festive
if the Festivity was N, except that a Rank N Festival CANNOT be
started if Agora's Festivity has had a value grater than or equal
to N in the past 21 days. Upon a Rank N Festival starting, Agora's
Festivity is flipped to N.

Regulation AM0/5 Generalized Auction Generalized auctions exist to give context to the form of other types of auctions. They CANNOT be held directly. Other auction methods that use this type of auction as a starting point can override attributes of generalized auctions except when it is explicitly stated that that attribute is not able to be overridden. INITIATION: When a person CAN begin an auction by this or any derivative method, e CAN only do so by specifying the type of auction method to be held, a list of lots to be auctioned off, and the currency for the auction in a public message (henceforth the "initiation message"). The bidding period starts at this point. BIDDING: Players CAN place a bid on an auction in its bidding period by creating a public message (henceforth a "bid message") specifying an amount of that auction's currency. Players CAN withdraw from an open auction by announcement. EXCLUSIVITY: Bids in an auction are grouped into classes of that auction. Unless otherwise specified, all bids in a given auction are in a single class. A bid CANNOT be made if, in the class it would be in, another bid already exists with the bid amount of the hypothetical bid. TERMINATION: The bidding period ends four days after the final instance of any of the following events' occurance: * the auction begins * a bid is placed * a player withdraws from the auction AWARDING: For each auction, there are a number of awardees equal to the number of lots. The Nth lot of an auction goes to the Nth awardee of that auction. If the identity of an awardee is undecidable, then that lot cannot be given away. Auction methods specify how awardees are picked for auctions using that method. PAYMENT AMOUNT: The amount that an awardee in an auction is required to pay for eir lot is, unless otherwise specified, the amount of the auction's curency specified in eir highest bid on that auction. FUNDED PLAYERS: Derivative auction methods should ensure that only players who, at the end of an auction's bidding period, have at least as much of that auction's currency as the amount that e is required to pay in that auction (hereafter "funded players") can be selected as awardees for auctions using that auction method. DISTRIBUTION: To distribute lots in an auction is to: * publish a reasonably accurate full history of bids on the auction and withdrawals from the auction, and * for each awardee in that auction, revoke the amount to be paid from that awardee and transfer to that player (or grant em if the item is new) the set of assets associated with the lot e won. The Auctioneer for an auction CAN, by announcement within fourteen days after the bidding period for an auction ends, and SHALL, in a timely fashion after that same point, distribute lots. The message in which e does so is the "resolution message" for that auction. ACTIVE BIDS: The set of active bids for an auction is the set of all funded, non-withdrawn players' highest bids on that auction.

Correction (updating list of lots). The transfers here most likely do
nothing.
The September Stone auction's bidding period has ended. The auction began at
21:09:50 on 2022-09-04, and
the bidding period ended at 21:10:47 on 2022-09-08, four days after the final
bid by Jason.
There were two lots: [Wealth Stone], [Sabotage Stone].
This auction was a selective-bid auction. The awardees are as follows:
[Wealth Stone] -> Jason for 1 coin
[Sabotage Stone] -> Jason for 1 coin
I perform the following actions if and only if they all succeed:
{
I destroy 1 of Jason's coins.
I cause the Wealth Stone to be transferred to Jason.
}
I perform the following actions if and only if they all succeed:
{
I destroy 1 of Jason's coins.
I cause the Sabotage Stone to be transferred to Jason.
}

MAD ENGINEER'S WEEKLY REPORT
The Device is off.
EXPERIMENT 00051 INTENT TO INVENT
I intend, with Agoran consent, to cause Rule 2655 to amend the Rule "The
Device" by appending the following a a list item to the "When the device
is off:" list:
{
Device is ossified if it is IMPOSSIBLE for any reasonable
combination of actions by players to cause arbitrary rule changes
to be made and/or arbitrary proposals to be adopted within a
real-world (UTC) four-week period.
}
OFF: [Mad Engineer] Experiment 00051 - Rule Selection
EXPERIMENT 00051 RULE SELECTION
As selected on Discord #botspam, the rule for this week is Rule 1698
("Agora Is A Nomic"). I affirm under penalty of No Faking that, to the
best of my knowledge, the process used in this selection had the correct
distribution.
Please send suggestions if you have them!
The text of Rule 1698 is reproduced below for convenience:
Rule 1698/7 (Power=4)
Agora Is A Nomic
Agora is ossified if it is IMPOSSIBLE for any reasonable
combination of actions by players to cause arbitrary rule changes
to be made and/or arbitrary proposals to be adopted within a
real-world (UTC) four-week period.
If, but for this rule, the net effect of a proposal would cause
Agora to become ossified, or would cause Agora to cease to exist,
it cannot take effect, rules to the contrary notwithstanding. 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.

Amend Rule 869 by appending the following paragraphs:
{
Banned is a secured negative boolean person switch tracked by the
Registrar. A person is unwelcome if e is Banned or if at least one part
of em is unwelcome. Rules to the contrary notwithstanding, an unwelcome
person CANNOT register or be registered, and e is immediately
deregistered if e is ever a player. Designations of unwelcomeness are
secured.
Unwelcomeness is to be used only to make a social statement that the
Agoran community no longer wishes to interact with certain persons; in
particular, it is not to be used to acquire gameplay advantage. As such,
an unwelcome person SHOULD NOT, under any circumstances, attempt to
bypass unwelcomeness, and e SHOULD carefully consider the circumstances
of eir becoming unwelcome before participating in public or discussion fora.

For the purposes of this proposal, "Madrid" is the person who, at the

"Madrid" to the average Agoran.
Madrid is hereby deregistered.
Madrid's instance of the Banned switch is hereby flipped to true.

This is a bill of attainder. Its purpose is to deregister and, if
possible, ban Madrid as a sanction for a series of incidents on the
lists and on the unofficial Discord server. This is not in response to
any single incident, but rather a pattern of behavior. This is
additionally not in response to Madrid's distaste for Spivak pronouns
itself, regardless of the timing of this submission.
Madrid's actions and views have resulted in two deregistrations (one
successful FAGE and one attempted FAGE that wasn't a FAGE due to a
technicality), hostile exchanges of words on list, and an atmosphere on

Regulation AM0/5 Generalized Auction Generalized auctions exist to give context to the form of other types of auctions. They CANNOT be held directly. Other auction methods that use this type of auction as a starting point can override attributes of generalized auctions except when it is explicitly stated that that attribute is not able to be overridden. INITIATION: When a person CAN begin an auction by this or any derivative method, e CAN only do so by specifying the type of auction method to be held, a list of lots to be auctioned off, and the currency for the auction in a public message (henceforth the "initiation message"). The bidding period starts at this point. BIDDING: Players CAN place a bid on an auction in its bidding period by creating a public message (henceforth a "bid message") specifying an amount of that auction's currency. Players CAN withdraw from an open auction by announcement. EXCLUSIVITY: Bids in an auction are grouped into classes of that auction. Unless otherwise specified, all bids in a given auction are in a single class. A bid CANNOT be made if, in the class it would be in, another bid already exists with the bid amount of the hypothetical bid. TERMINATION: The bidding period ends four days after the final instance of any of the following events' occurance: * the auction begins * a bid is placed * a player withdraws from the auction AWARDING: For each auction, there are a number of awardees equal to the number of lots. The Nth lot of an auction goes to the Nth awardee of that auction. If the identity of an awardee is undecidable, then that lot cannot be given away. Auction methods specify how awardees are picked for auctions using that method. PAYMENT AMOUNT: The amount that an awardee in an auction is required to pay for eir lot is, unless otherwise specified, the amount of the auction's curency specified in eir highest bid on that auction. FUNDED PLAYERS: Derivative auction methods should ensure that only players who, at the end of an auction's bidding period, have at least as much of that auction's currency as the amount that e is required to pay in that auction (hereafter "funded players") can be selected as awardees for auctions using that auction method. DISTRIBUTION: To distribute lots in an auction is to: * publish a reasonably accurate full history of bids on the auction and withdrawals from the auction, and * for each awardee in that auction, revoke the amount to be paid from that awardee and transfer to that player (or grant em if the item is new) the set of assets associated with the lot e won. The Auctioneer for an auction CAN, by announcement within fourteen days after the bidding period for an auction ends, and SHALL, in a timely fashion after that same point, distribute lots. The message in which e does so is the "resolution message" for that auction. ACTIVE BIDS: The set of active bids for an auction is the set of all funded, non-withdrawn players' highest bids on that auction.

Pursuant to Rule 2642, I initiate a stone auction with the following lots: [Wealth Stone], [Sabotage Stone]. The method to be used for this auction is a Selective-bid Auction, defined jointly by regulations AM0 and AM5. In case of contradiction between either the latest published ACORN or the platonic set of auction regulations and the below text, the below text shall control. Regulation AM0/5 Generalized Auction Generalized auctions exist to give context to the form of other types of auctions. They CANNOT be held directly. Other auction methods that use this type of auction as a starting point can override attributes of generalized auctions except when it is explicitly stated that that attribute is not able to be overridden.

EXPERIMENT 00050 INTENT TO INVENT
I intend, with Agoran consent, to cause Rule 2655 to amend the Rule "The
Device" by appending the following a a list item to the "When the device

{
Each device has exactly one owner.
}

EXPERIMENT 00050 RULE SELECTION
As selected on Discord #botspam, the rule for this week is Rule 2576
("Ownership"). I affirm under penalty of No Faking that, to the
best of my knowledge, the process used in this selection had the correct
distribution.
Please send suggestions if you have them!
The text of Rule 2576 is reproduced below for convenience:
Rule 2576/3 (Power=3)
Ownership
Each asset has exactly one owner.
If ownership of an asset is restricted to a class of entities,
then that asset CANNOT be gained by or transferred to an entity
outside that class. By default, ownership of an asset is
restricted to Agora, players, and contracts, but an asset's
backing document may modify this.
An asset "in abeyance" is one whose owner is nonexistent,
indeterminate, or invalid. If an asset would otherwise be in
abeyance, then it is owned by the Lost and Found Department (if
possible) or destroyed (otherwise), subject to modification by its
backing document (provided that the modification either destroys
it or prevents it from being in abeyance). Rules to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Lost and Found Department can own assets of
every type. Assets owned by the Lost and Found Department can be
transferred or destroyed by any player without objection.

Amend Rule 2221 by appending the following paragraph:
{
Cleaning rules is secured. Refiling rules is secured.

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.

Regulation AM0/5 Generalized Auction Generalized auctions exist to give context to the form of other types of auctions. They CANNOT be held directly. Other auction methods that use this type of auction as a starting point can override attributes of generalized auctions except when it is explicitly stated that that attribute is not able to be overridden. INITIATION: When a person CAN begin an auction by this or any derivative method, e CAN only do so by specifying the type of auction method to be held, a list of lots to be auctioned off, and the currency for the auction in a public message (henceforth the "initiation message"). The bidding period starts at this point. BIDDING: Players CAN place a bid on an auction in its bidding period by creating a public message (henceforth a "bid message") specifying an amount of that auction's currency. Players CAN withdraw from an open auction by announcement. EXCLUSIVITY: Bids in an auction are grouped into classes of that auction. Unless otherwise specified, all bids in a given auction are in a single class. A bid CANNOT be made if, in the class it would be in, another bid already exists with the bid amount of the hypothetical bid. TERMINATION: The bidding period ends four days after the final instance of any of the following events' occurance: * the auction begins * a bid is placed * a player withdraws from the auction AWARDING: For each auction, there are a number of awardees equal to the number of lots. The Nth lot of an auction goes to the Nth awardee of that auction. If the identity of an awardee is undecidable, then that lot cannot be given away. Auction methods specify how awardees are picked for auctions using that method. PAYMENT AMOUNT: The amount that an awardee in an auction is required to pay for eir lot is, unless otherwise specified, the amount of the auction's curency specified in eir highest bid on that auction. FUNDED PLAYERS: Derivative auction methods should ensure that only players who, at the end of an auction's bidding period, have at least as much of that auction's currency as the amount that e is required to pay in that auction (hereafter "funded players") can be selected as awardees for auctions using that auction method. DISTRIBUTION: To distribute lots in an auction is to: * publish a reasonably accurate full history of bids on the auction and withdrawals from the auction, and * for each awardee in that auction, revoke the amount to be paid from that awardee and transfer to that player (or grant em if the item is new) the set of assets associated with the lot e won. The Auctioneer for an auction CAN, by announcement within fourteen days after the bidding period for an auction ends, and SHALL, in a timely fashion after that same point, distribute lots. The message in which e does so is the "resolution message" for that auction. ACTIVE BIDS: The set of active bids for an auction is the set of all funded, non-withdrawn players' highest bids on that auction.
