Wonko has submitted a new proposal, p135.

---------------------------------
Proposal 135/0: Fixing Up/Simplifying Souls
A Standard Proposal by Wonko
Last modified on nweek 92, nday 9

Remove the last bullet point and the final paragraph of rule 7-5.

Remove the text "and paying a number of SP equal to that Soul's Value" from rule 7-1.

Replace rule 7-4 with:
{{
__ Soul Binding __

Each type of Talisman may have a Price, which is a list of objects.

If the price of a Talisman type lists X SP for any number X, this is shorthand for "A Soul or group of Souls with combined value X SP or greater".

Any player who has at least one of the objects in a given Talisman type's price may attempt to Forge a Talisman of that type, or may contribute the object(s) to another player's attempt to Forge a Talisman of that type.

If, at the end of the 4th, 8th, or 12th nday of an nweek, a player has been attempting to Forge a Talisman for four or more ndays, and for four or more ndays enough objects have been contributed to the forging to fulfill the price, then the Forging resolves: a new Talisman of that type is created in the possession of the player who attempted to Forge it. This destroys the objects spent for the price, except for Souls. Souls spent this way become Bound to that Talisman, ceasing to be Lost, Found, or in anyone's possession.

When a Talisman is destroyed, all Souls Bound to it become Lost.
}}

[[ Much shorter and to the point ]]


Create in section 9 of the ruleset this rule:
{{
__ Effect Description Conventions __
When a body of text describes a property of an object or an activated ability, the following conventions apply unless stated otherwise:
 * The use of the 2nd person (i.e., 'You', 'Yourself', 'Your', etc.) is assumed to refer to the entity who holds the object in question, except when describing activated effects, in which case it refers to the player who activated the effect.
 * A string of the form "[price],[actions]:[effects]" is interpreted to mean that players may perform the actions in [actions] and pay objects they hold equal to [price] to cause [effects] to happen (obvious variants on this are also acceptable, for example putting the actions before the price). If such a string is associated with a specific object, then it is assumed that only the holder of that object may do this unless stated otherwise. "Pay" in this context means "destroy" unless there is an obvious other meaning for the objects in question (some currencies might go to a Bank, for example, or cards might end up in a deck).
 * If the word "sacrifice" is one of the actions in such a description, and the description is associated with an object, it means "destroy this object".
 * If a player is permitted to invoke an activated effect described as above, they are implicitly empowered to perform the necessary actions when doing so (i.e., if it says "destroy this and gain 5 GC: target player loses 10A", then the holder of the object is implicitly permitted to gain 5GC and destroy the object, but only when invoking this ability).
}}

Repeal rule 7-3. [[Which is redundant in light of the above]]
