[Spoon-business] Automatic Philosophy Changes |
I submit the following proposal, titled "Sophistry". {{ Create a philosophy called Sophistry, with the following mandate: {{ Sophists are kind of like philosophers, but do not seek wisdom for its own sake. Sophists may cast a single extra vote on up to two proposals per nweek, which makes them seem all philosophical and whatnot. However, because they cannot disguise their inherent non-philosophical nature, a Sophist may not change to any other philosophy. If in any nweek a Sophist fails to cast an extra vote, e ceases to have any philosophy at all, freeing em from the restrictions of Sophistry. }} Alter the Platonism mandate by putting the following text at the end: {{ A Platonist tends not to want proposals to die without a chance to reach their ideal form. If a Platonist votes against a proposal which has not been Shelved on a previous ballot, the Platonist becomes a Sophist. Followers of Plato are more easily swayed by the ideas of his pupil. If a Platonist submits a proposal which fits the requirements for an extra yes vote by an Aristotelian, the Platonist turns into an Aristotelian and may not voluntarily change eir philosophy to anything other than Sophistry for two nweeks. }} }} - Teucer ragnarok@xxxxxxxxx teucer@xxxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ spoon-business mailing list spoon-business@xxxxxxxxx http://lists.ellipsis.cx/mailman/listinfo/spoon-business
