[Spoon-business] Precipitation



Now that there's a Grid Minister (thanks WC), I feel justified in proposing this.

{{ __Precipitation__

This is an A la Carte proposal.

Section 1:

Amend section A of rule 405 by adding the following ORDER delimited text:

ORDER
When the Weather is updated, the individual Characteristics are updated in the order in which they occur in section B of this rule.
ORDER

Section 2:

Create a new subsection B.2. of rule 405 titled __Precipitation__ with the following -0- delimited text:

-0-
Precipitation has a Type. Whenever the weather is updated, the Weather Man rolls 1d10. If there is no Weather Man, the Administrator rolls 1d10.

B.2.1. None

If a 1 is rolled, the Type is None. The temperature increases by 1d7 degrees.

B.2.2. Rain

If a 2 is rolled, the Type is Rain. 15 random squares become Wet, and the temperature decreases by 1d5 degrees.

B.2.3. Snow

If a 3 is rolled, the Type is Snow. The temperature is set to -5 degrees, and 5 random squares become Wet.

B.2.3. Hail

If a 4 is rolled, the Type is Hail. All Gnomes on the Grid which are not in a player's possession lose 1hp.

B.2.4. Freezing Rain

If a 5 is rolled, the Type is Freezing Rain. The temperature decreases by 1d10 degrees, and 15 random squares become Wet.

B.2.5. Toads

If a 6 is rolled, the Type is Toads. A random player who is on the Grid becomes a Toad until the Weather is updated again. If the Type is Toads for two consecutive updates of the Weather, the same player remains a Toad rather than another player being chosen.

B.2.6. Gnomes

If a 7 is rolled, the Type is Gnomes. 5 Gnomes of random types are placed at random locations on the Grid.

B.2.7. Cats And Dogs

If an 8 is rolled, the Type is Cats and Dogs. All moves which are made do not take place until the Type is no longer Cats and Dogs. This subsection take precedence over rules 301 [[The Grid]] and 394 [[Football]].

B.2.8. Sulfur

If a 9 is rolled, the Type is Sulfur. [[Set a few fires? Dude, I rained down sulfur. There's a slight difference... Mass genocide is one of the most physically exhausting activities one can participate in.]] 10 random squares become of type Fire until the next time the precipitation Type is Rain, Snow, or Freezing Rain. The temperature

B.2.9. Men

If a 10 is rolled, the Type is Men [[It's raining Men...]]. All player's Genders are considered to be Male until the precipitation Type is no longer Men. This subsection takes precedence over rule 295.
