[Spoon-business] Proposal: Let's try that one again...

["Glotmorf" <glotmorf@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

{{ _Dangit, Stop Stepping On My Lines!_

In Rule 578:

- In subsection C, replace the text "for doing so." in the second paragraph with the text, "for doing so, and if the Society has no non-Player members."

[[ Societies with non-Player members can't change their own charters; charter changes must happen with a proposal. ]]

- In subsection D, insert after the second paragraph the following:

"A Non-Player entity consents to joining a Society only if said Society already has at least one Member of the same general class as the joining entity."

[[ Grandfather clause.  A Society that was created from the start with a non-Player entity can get more of the same general class.  Otherwise, a Society can't change its rules to acquire Gremlin Members if it didn't have any already. ]]

- In subsection F, change "Players" in the last sentence of the first paragraph to "Members".

[[ Wonko stepped on my lines.  My Neutron Proposal left this in. ]]

- In subsection G.2, insert after the first sentence of the second paragraph the text, "Only Players can be initial Members of a Society created by a Player Action."

[[ To prevent the apoplexy of the prior nweek, though I still think there's some promise to it...:) ]]

Create the following Society:

{{ _House Grem_

There exists a Society called House Grem.

The initial Member of House Grem is Enrique.

At the beginning of each nweek, if there are any Active Gremlins that are not Members of House Grem, one of them is randomly selected, and that Gremlin becomes a Member of House Grem.

If a Gremlin goes into Hiding, it is Ousted from House Grem, unless House Grem only has one Member.

Each nweek, after any declarations of new Members, if House Grem has more than one Member but not more Members than half the number of Players, House Grem will make a Society Proposal of the following form:

"{{ _Nweek N Insta-Prop_

Create the following Insta-Rule:

<random non-duplicate insta-rule>

}}"

where N is the nweek the Society Proposal is proposed, and <random non-duplicate insta-rule> is crafted by randomly selecting from the possibilities for an insta-rule, left to right, until an entire insta-rule is decided upon.  If the resulting insta-rule is a duplicate of an existing insta-rule, possibilities are changed, moving right to left as possibilities are exhausted, until a unique insta-rule is produced.

Points earned by House Grem's Society Proposals will be donated to the Gremlin Fund.
