ID: 8478
Title: another talismans fix
Adoption index: 3.0
Author: Jason
Co-authors: nix, G.
Amend Rule 2574 by replacing the list item beginning "If a player
possesses more than one" with the following:
{
- If a player possesses more than one talisman for persons other than
emself, specify and transfer one of those talismans to Agora;
}

ID: 8479
Title: Competitive Finger Pointing v2
Adoption index: 1.7
Author: nix
Co-authors: Aris, Publius Scribonius Scholasticus, ATMunn
Amend R2478, "Vigilante Justice" by adding to the beginning of the
list:
- Issuing a Warning to the perp, as described elsewhere;
and by adding after the list items:
Initiating a Finger Pointing found to be Shenanigans is ILLEGAL
and the Class 0+N Crime of Unjustified Gesticulation, where N is
the number of times e has previously committed the crime in the
current Agoran Week.
and by adding, to the very end of the rule:
The player who initiated the most Finger Pointings that resulted
in a Warning, Indictment, or Cold Hand of Justice in the previous
Agoran Week CAN once grant emself a Justice Card by announcement.
Amend R2557 "Sentencing Guidelines" by adding to the end:
When the rules authorize an investigator to issue a Warning for a
violation, e CAN do so by announcement if the violation is
described by the rules as a "Class N Crime" where N is 0 or an
expression that evaluates to 0.
[There is no ruleset support for class 0 crimes right now. So this
version adds support by introducing a new thing the investigator can do
called a Warning.]

Title: Generic welcome package fix
Adoption index: 1.0
Author: Jason
Co-authors:
Amend Rule 2499 by deleting the sentence beginning "A player CANNOT" and
by replacing the final paragraph with the following:
{
When a player receives a Welcome Package, if e has not received one in
the past 30 days, then e earns 10 coins and one of each type of Card
defined in the rules.
}
[This makes protects against all possible infinite welcome package scams
that involve one person receiving infinite welcome packages. With this
change, a person can get infinite welcome packages, but only the first
one in each 30 day period will actually grant any rewards (which likely
makes most scams not worth the hassle).]

Title: If it's not pending we don't care v2
Adoption index: 3.0
Author: Trigon
Co-authors: Aris
Amend Rule 1607 "Distribution" by deleting the paragraph:
The Promotor's report includes a list of all proposals in the
Proposal Pool, along with their text and attributes. This portion
of a public document purporting to be a Promotor's report is
self-ratifying.
then by replacing:
If a proposal has been in the proposal pool for more than 7 days
and is not pending, the Promotor CAN and SHOULD remove it from the
Pool by announcement.
with:
The Promotor CAN Drain the Pool by announcement. When e does so,
each proposal in the Proposal Pool that was there for the entirety
of the previous Agoran month is destroyed. E SHOULD do so once
each month.
Amend Rule 2496 "Rewards" by adding a bullet point to the list, before
the one beginning "Publishing an office's weekly or monthly report" that
reads:
* Initiating a referendum, provided that no other referendum had
been initiated earlier in that Agoran week: 5 coins (ADoP)

Title: Offices are complex v2
Adoption index: 1.0
Author: Trigon
Co-authors: ATMunn
Enact a new power-1 rule entitled "Complexity" with the text:
Complexity is an office switch reflecting how complex it is to
fulfill the duties of its office. Its possible values are all
integers from 0 to 3 inclusive, where 1 is the default. It is
tracked in the ADoP's weekly report. The ADoP CAN, with 2 Agoran
consent, flip the complexity of an office.
Set the complexity switch of the following offices as such:
ADoP: 1
Arbitor: 2 [comment: if we split CotC this should go down]
Assessor: 3
Coopor: 1
Distributor: 0
Herald: 2
Notary: 2
Prime Minister: 0
Promotor: 3
Referee: 2
Registrar: 1
Rulekeepor: 3
Speaker: 0
Tailor: 1
Treasuror: 3
Webmastor: 1
Amend Rule 2496 "Rewards" by replacing the text "5 coins" in the
following bullet points as such:
- the bullet point beginning "Publishing an office's weekly or monthly
report": 5 coins times the complexity of the office
- the bullet point beginning "Resolving a referendum": 5 coins times
the Assessor's complexity.
- the bullet point beginning "Initiating a referendum", if it exists: 5
coins times the Promotor's complexity.

Adoption index: 1.0
Author: G.

Title: Clarify asset ownership
Adoption index: 3.0
Author: Murphy
Co-authors: CuddleBeam, Aris
Amend Rule 2576 (Ownership) to read:
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.
If an asset's owner would otherwise be nonexistent, indeterminate,
or invalid, then it is owned by the Lost and Found Department (if
possible) or destroyed (otherwise), subject to modification by its
backing document. 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.

Title: Eternal Personhood
Adoption index: 3.0
Author: Gaelan
Co-authors: Aris
In rule 869 "How to Join and Leave Agora", replace
{Any organism that is generally capable of freely originating and
communicating independent thoughts and ideas is a person.}
with
{Any entity that is or ever was an organism generally capable of freely
originating and communicating independent thoughts and ideas is a person.}

Title: Fee-based de-escalation
Adoption index: 3.0
Author: Jason
Co-authors: omd
Amend Rule 2579 by replacing the final paragraph with the following: {
If a Rule purports to provide a fee-based method to perform an action
with a fee of no assets, that Rule enables the performance of the action
by announcement. When using such a method, the actor SHOULD announce
that there was a 0 or empty fee.
}
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
ID: 8487
Title: Simpler ribbon switches
Adoption index: 3.0
Author: Murphy
Co-authors: R. Lee
Amend Rule 2438 (Ribbons) by replacing this text:
Ribbon Ownership is a secured person switch, tracked by the
Tailor in eir monthly report, whose values are the subsets of
the set of types of Ribbon, defaulting to the empty set. If the
rules are amended to change the types of Ribbon, if a player's
Ribbon Ownership is subsequently illegal, then it is updated by
removing all nonexistent types rather than resetting the entire
value to default.
To "award a person a <Ribbon type>" is to add that type of Ribbon
to that person's Ribbon Ownership. A person "owns a <Ribbon type>"
if that type of Ribbon is an element of eir Ribbon Ownership.
with this text:
For each type of Ribbon, <type> Ribbon Ownership is a secured
negative boolean person switch, tracked by the Tailor in eir
monthly report.
To "award a person a <Ribbon type>" is to flip that person's
<that type> Ribbon Ownership to True. A person "owns a <Ribbon
type>" if eir <that type> Ribbon Ownership is True.
and by replacing this text:
While a person owns all types of Ribbon, that person can Raise a
Banner by announcement. This causes that person to win the game.
That person's Ribbon Ownership becomes the empty set.
with this text:
While a person owns all types of Ribbon, that person can Raise a
Banner by announcement. This causes that person to win the game.
When a person wins this way, for each type of Ribbon, that
person's <type> Ribbon Ownership is flipped to False.
For each type of Ribbon, for each person whose Ribbon Ownership prior to
the adoption of this proposal included that type, flip eir <that type>
Ribbon Ownership to True.
