[s-b] Proposal: Support invalidations

[0x44 <bnomic@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Amend Rule 1-10 to read:

A Game Action is defined as any activity specified by the rules to be a 
Game Action. Other Outsiders may also take Game Actions if explicitly 
permitted by the rules. To perform a Game Action, an Outsider must post 
a message to a Public Forum specifying that he is taking that action. He 
must also specify any targets and/or parameters necessary for that 
action [[for example, you must specify a proposal in order to vote 
against a proposal]]. He may list multiple actions that he wishes to 
take, in which case he takes them in the order he lists them. He may 
also state a specific positive integer to perform a particular action 
that many times (if legal, of course) sequentially. The Rules also have 
the power to cause an Outsider to take Game Actions whether he posts or 
not.

Game Actions occur upon reaching the appropriate fora, in the order they 
arrived, unless a rule states otherwise. A Game Action that is caused by 
a Rule instead of by a Forum Post takes place at the time specified by 
the rule.

Text to the effect that "any player may do X" should be interpreted to 
mean that X is a Game Action; but such a declaration implies that only 
players may take the Game Action X (unless another declaration permits 
other Outsiders to as well).

With 2 support, any player may, as a game action, declare any other Game 
Action which has occurred within the past NDay to be Invalid, unless 
that Game Action was to declare another Game Action invalid, or to 
submit a consultation. An invalid Game Action is treated as if it never 
occurred. An Outsider whose Game Action has been declared invalid may 
submit a consultation whose text reads "XXX is valid", where XXX is the 
Game Action they attempted to perform. When that consultation becomes 
Pondered, if the priest answered it Yes, the Player who declared that 
game action to be invalid loses 10 Points.

Any Game Action which has not been declared invalid by the above within 
the allowed timespan is considered to be valid in every way, even if it 
is in contradiction to the rules.
