[TCG] some recent events

[nfoo.nomic@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

Alex, Olena, Jennifer, and Xiannan,

I nod and suggest that everyone else do the same.

Hopefully the PHP gamestate page will be relocated to
http://janos.ca/rbl/
Alex and I have both met Janos.

I recently received the files from the old server that describe the last
few actions recorded by the PHP page.  They are:

22 August 2003 3:39:56  Jennifer votes 1 on proposal Different inactivity
(34).  It passes.
22 August 2003 3:40:34  Jennifer votes 1 on proposal Shunting vertices
(35).  It passes.
22 August 2003 3:41:23  Jennifer votes 1 on proposal Clarifying adjacency
(36).
23 August 2003 1:30:37  Robert votes 1 on proposal Clarifying adjacency
(36).  It passes.
23 August 2003 1:34:29  Alex votes -1 on proposal Pausing (33).
23 August 2003 1:59:55  Alex creates proposal PausedSurvival (37).
23 August 2003 2:00:03  Alex votes 1 on proposal PausedSurvival (37).
23 August 2003 2:05:17  Alex creates proposal Death (38).
23 August 2003 2:05:28  Alex votes 1 on proposal Death (38).
23 August 2003 12:00:00 Robert moves from vertex (2,3) to vertex 3,4

This information is at http://janos.ca/rbl/gamelog.txt
In addition, some interesting things have happened to the game, which we
already know about:
22 August 2003 3:39:56  Nathan becomes inactive.  PeriodicalSpaceHeater2
(24) passes.  Efficient games (32) passes.  Exclusion II (25) fails. 
Gliptic and Roger are removed from the game.  PlayerActivity (19) passes.
26 August 2003 06:33:04 Robert creates proposal Space Dimension (39).
26 August 2003 19:18:47 Alex votes 1 on proposal Space Dimension (39).
27 August 2003 03:50:47 Nathan leaves the game.

All other existing proposals have expired in the meantime.

The PHP page needs to undergo some maintenance e.g. to allow it to be
aware of former players' proposals etc without counting those players in
votes.  This shouldn't be too difficult - we should be able to resume the
game soon.

Proposal PausedSurvival, created by Alex with description "players do not
die when paused," reads:
"<modifyrule 29 PlayerRemoval>
If a player has been inactive for 25 days, and e did not most recently
become inactive by pausing, e is completely removed from the game. 
</modifyrule>

Alex's account loses 249/403 money units and Olena's account gains
249/403 money units. 
[249/403 is close to sqrt(5)-1 / 2.]"

Proposal PausedSurvival, created by Alex with description "tidying up a
loose end," reads:
"<modifyrule 22 VertexOwners>
Each vertex in the game state can have an owner. The owner of a vertex is
a part of the gamestate. The owner can be a player or the non-player
entity "god". A player that owns a vertex can change the owner of that
vertex to another player or to the non-player entity "god". A player,
that
is located at a vertex owned by the non-player entity "god", can become
the owner of that vertex if e transfers a certain number of money units
to nowhere. If the burning state of the vertex is true, then this number
is 64; otherwise, the number is 32. 

A vertex that is created will initially be owned by the non-player entity
"god". 

When a player leaves the game, all vertices owned by em become owned by
"god".  
</modifyrule>"
