spoon-business: Revisions to "Removal of Cruft"


In my proposal "Removal of Cruft":

I change paragraph 1 to read:
{{
1. In Rule 351, change the text {{ eir becomes (x+a-3,y+b-3) }} to {{ eir
coordinates become (x+a-3, y+b-3) }}.
}}
[[ Yes, this changes what paragraph 1 does entirely. It no longer messes
with the rule that forbids altering the past. The point about
accidental effects was well made. ]]

[[ Paragraph 2 - the rule already said "public view". The point is to
remove all the qualifications along the lines of "If there exists an
object known as the Clock...", and to put the Clock and the Watch
together in one rule. ]]

I change paragraph 4 to read:
{{
4. Remove the two last paragraphs of rule 216/0. Then append the
following paragraph:
{{
When proposing multiple rules, it is only necessary that the rules be
clearly delimited. The Standard Delimiters may serve this purpose.
}}
}}

I change paragraph 6 to read:
{{
6. Replace the second and third paragraphs of rule 300/1 with:
{{ Keywords are part of the game state. }}
}}

[[
That's the end of the changes. Here's the complete proposal after the
changes:

__Removal Of Cruft__
{{

1. In Rule 351, change the text {{ eir becomes (x+a-3,y+b-3) }} to {{
eir coordinates become (x+a-3, y+b-3) }}.

2. Modify rule 214/1 to read:
{{ The value of the Clock must be displayed in public view. If the Clock
is Off, the value of the Watch must be displayed in public view. }}

3. Repeal rule 215/0.

4. Remove the two last paragraphs of rule 216/0. Then append the
following paragraph:
{{
When proposing multiple rules, it is only necessary that the rules be
clearly delimited. The Standard Delimiters may serve this purpose.
}}

5. In Rule 260/1, change the text
{{ with the text "*name* gets a Kick in the Ass." }}
to
{{ indicating that e is giving that player a Kick in the Ass, and the
reason why. }}

6. Replace the second and third paragraphs of rule 300/1 with:
{{ Keywords are part of the game state. }}

7. In rule 301/3, remove the paragraph
{{ The distance between two squares is the square root of (the
difference in x-values of the squares squared plus the difference in
y-values of the squares squared). }}
[[ Rule 407, "Space", makes it redundant. ]]

8. In Rule 401/0, change the text {{ ZOE }} to {{ ZOE and ZATR }}.
[[ Right now Wax would not help you get away from a Siren. ]]

}}
]]
