spoon-business: Winning v2.0

[Wonko <dplepage@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well, I sent this once, but I didn't get it back... I'll try again.




I set my Dimship to 100 Score Buoyancy, 100 BAC Ballast.
I buy 5 new DimShips. [[Nowhere does it limit the number of DimShips players
may have :) ]]
I name my five new DimShips Entropy Ship 1, Entropy Ship 2, Entropy Ship 3,
Entropy Ship 4 and Entropy Ship 5, respectively.
If I still have a score of at least 100, I buy another DimShip, naming it
the Score Ship. [[I can't load Nomic.Net, so I don't know my Score]]
At the end of the nweek, I launch all five Entropy Ships at 100 Entropy
Buoyancy, no Ballast, and the Score Ship at 1 Entropy buoyancy, 99 Score
Buoyancy, no Ballast.

[[
Here's what I believe will happen:

At the end of the nweek, thanks to my Ships, Global Entropy hits 500.
The Grid ignites. Everything is swept off it.
Everyone gets 10 points and loses all Entropy.
Meanwhile, my DimShips stay at a total of 500 Entropy.
So it all happens again. And again. And again.

What happens next depends on what passes and what fails.
If the admin's 'Sing' proposal fails, then everyone keeps gaining 10 points
at a time until someone crosses 1000 (me). I get a win, and all scores
become zero. Everyone continues to gain 10 points at a time until someone
crosses 1000. I've got 199 DimShip Points, so I'll get there first (unless
I'm mistaken, and I'm not rich enough to buy the second Score Ship, in which
case anyone else who has 100 Score on eir Dimship comes with me) I win
again, scores are reset, scores rise again, etc. I get an infinite number of
wins.

If 'Sing' passes, and so does 'Time Freeze' (The Voice), then the Clock
stops after the first time I win, and I intend to shut off my Entropy Ships
during the Clock break, so all that happens is I Win.

The above is the most likely thing to happen, by my counts.

If 'Sing' passes, but 'Time Freeze' doesn't, then we get caught in an
infinite loop, as whenever the clock turns On I immediately win, and so the
Clock turns off again, and there's nothing anyone can do about it except
call in r0. But I think 'Freeze' has gotten more yes-votes than 'Sing' so
that's unlikely.

Now who's 60 points behind the rest of the game? ;)
