Re: [s-b] Proposal Revision - #241 The Code of Life


I revise again Proposal 241 again, below, and am updating the proposal
on the wiki. Changes are in the no-voting-against-a-twin part:

> {{
>
> Create a new rule that reads:
> {
> There is an Attribute "DNA" with a Scope of all Players, a Range of
> two-character-strings composed entirely of the uppercase letters A, T,
> G, and C, and a Default Value of AA.
>
> Once per nweek, as a Game Action, a Player who has not yet Voted on
> any currently Pending Proposals may Mutate, changing only one of the
> characters that forms his DNA but leaving both characters in the same
> order.
>
> Players with identical DNA are said to be Twins. In no case shall a
> Player be considered to be his own Twin.
> }
>
> Upon adoption of this proposal, the Ministry of Society is given the
> obligation to send an email to nomic.net's Dice Server
> (dice@xxxxxxxxx), with the following body of text (with appropriate
> values replacing the square brackets and text within):
>
> {
>
> #P spoon-business@xxxxxxxxx
> #S 4
>
> #D 1
> #R [an integer equal to two times the number of Players registered at
> the time the email is sent]
> #L 2
> #C 1=A, 2=T, 3=G, 4=C
> #C [list of all current players, by name, separated by commas]
> #T B Nomic DNA Assignment
>
> }

> /*See http://www.nomic.net/~dice/ for Dice Server instructions*/

> The response to the above email, automatically delivered by the Dice
> Server to the Public Forum, constitutes a Game Document bestowing each
> Player his initial DNA. The first line of dice rolls represents, in
> order from left to right, the first and second characters of the DNA
> of the first Player listed (from the left). Dice rolls are converted
> to letters as follows: 1 becomes A, 2 becomes T, 3 becomes G, 4
> becomes C. The second line represents, in the same manner, the DNA of
> the second Player listed, and such a pattern is followed till the nth
> line represents the nth Player. If the number of dice roll lines and
> the number of Players listed do not coincide, because of Ministry
> error or otherwise, this Game Document is destroyed and a new email is
> submitted such that a new Game Document is received and treated as if
> it were the first such document received for the purpose of DNA
> Assignation. Assignation of initial DNA does not constitute a
> mutation.

> In Rule 2-2, under the heading "Voting", insert the following
> paragraph between the 5th and 6th paragraphs:
> {
Voting AGAINST a Proposal whose Author is currently one's Twin
constitutes a Felony known as Blood Betrayal, punishable by a fine of
exactly m100. Committing Blood Betrayal multiple times in a given
nweek cannot result in more than a single punishment.

>
> In Rule 2-2, under the heading "Submission and Revision", append the
> following sentence to the first paragraph:
> {
> He may not specify a Conflict with a Proposal whose Author is
> currently his Twin.
> }
>
> In Rule 2-5, under the heading "Overriding Consultations", add the
> following sentence between the second and third sentences of the first
> paragraph:
> {
> A Player may not Claim an answer submitted by a Priest who is
> currently his Twin to be Inconsistent.
> }
>
> In Rule 2-8, append the following sentence to the fourth paragraph:
> {
> Neither may a Player object to an action that another Player who is
> currently his Twin attempted to perform.
> }
>
> In Rule 2-11, add the following paragraph:
> {
> A Player may not perform any action that directly causes the Hit
> Points of another Player who is currently his Twin to be reduced.
> }
>
> In Rule 6-4, amend the first sentence to read:
> {
> A Player may, as a Game Action and without 2 objections in 2 rdays,
> Usurp a non-Vacant Ministry, unless the current Minister is also
> currently his Twin.
