spoon-business: Proposal: The Haiku Bonus

["Jonathan Van Matre" <JVanMatre@xxxxxxxx>]

__Bandwidth Limitation Of A Different Stripe__

[[This should encourage some creativity as we try to shoehorn meaningful proposals into the laconic haiku form.]]

Create a new rule:

__The Haiku Bonus__

{{
Players submitting
Proposals in haiku form
Earn 10 extra points

A player who submits a proposal in haiku form earns 10 Score points for submitting the proposal, regardless of whether the proposal is adopted or rejected.  If the player subsequently revises the proposal, it must remain in haiku form, or else the player will forfeit the 10 Score points previously awarded.

To be considered haiku form, a proposal must meet one of the following restrictions:

1) The proposal, not including the title and comments, has 3 lines of text having 5 syllables, 7 syllables, and 5 syllables respectively.

2) The proposal, including the title, but not the comments, has 3 lines of text having 5 syllables, 7 syllables, and 5 syllables respectively.

3) The proposal, not including the title and comments, has 3 lines of text having 2 feet, 3 feet, and 2 feet respectively.

4) The proposal, including the title, but not the comments, has 3 lines of text having 2 feet, 3 feet, and 2 feet respectively.

Define "Zen Master of Nomic" as a Title.

If 3 or more of a player's haiku proposals have been adopted, that player receives the Title "Zen Master Of Nomic".
