Co-authors: [Keeps a very basic shiny system for Contracts and other stuff, but vastly simplifies it]. Amend Rule 2483 (Economics) to read in full: Shinies (singular "shiny", abbreviated "sh.") are an indestructible liquid currency, and the official currency of Agora. The Treasuror is an Office, and the recordkeepor for shinies. Whenever a Payday occurs, the following events happen in order: 1. For each entity possessing shinies, half of eir shinies (rounded up) are destroyed. 2. 10 shinies are created in the possession of each player. 3. For each office, if a single player held that office for 16 or more days in the previous month and e was not issued any Cards other than Green for eir conduct in that office during that time, 3 shinies are created in the possession of that player. The occurrence of Paydays is secured. At the beginning of each month, a Payday occurs. When a person registers who has not been a player at any time in the previous 60 days, 10 shinies are created in eir possession. The Pend Cost is 3 Shinies. The CFJ Cost is 1 Shiny. [ For any given payday, the total shinies S(t) will be governed by: S(t+1) = 10*Players + 3*Offices - 0.5*S(t) This has a stable equilibrium at (10*Players+3*Offices)/1.5 (if rounding isn't taken into account). ] All shinies are hereby destroyed. A Payday hereby occurs. Amend Rule 2445 (How to Pend a Proposal) by replacing: a) spending 1 Action Point, OR b) spending the current Pend Cost in shinies. with: a) spending the current Pend Cost in shinies, OR b) Without Objection. Amend Rule 991 (Calls for Judgement) by replacing: a) by announcement, and spending 1 Action Point, OR b) by announcement, and spending the current CFJ cost in shinies, OR c) by announcement if e is not a player. with: a) by announcement, if e has not previously initiated any CFJs in the current week, OR b) by announcement by spending the current CFJ Cost in shinies. [Everyone, players and non-players alike, gets one CFJ free per week, that is hopefully sufficiently guarding of justice for everyone - if not can raise that later.] Repeal, in the following order: Rule 2487 (Shiny Supply Level) Rule 2496 (Rewards) Rule 2497 (Floating Value) Rule 2498 (Economic Wins) Rule 2499 (Welcome Packages) Rule 2516 (Passive Income) Rule 2456 (The Treasuror) Rule 2489 (Estates) Rule 2488 (The Surveyor) Rule 2491 (Estate Auctions) Rule 2490 (Estate Ballots) Rule 2500 (Action Points) Rule 2504 (The Agronomist) Rule 2502 (Agoraculture) Rule 2501 (Farm Rate) Rule 2503 (Comestibles) //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
