Re: [s-b] Proposal: The Sock Market

[Justin Ahmann <quesmarktion@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I amend my proposal, "The Sock Market," to read as follows:
{
Create a new Rule, entitled "Socks", with the following text:
{
Socks are Game Objects.  The Company is a Game Object.

There exists an Attribute called "Sock Color" with a Scope of all Socks, a Range of {Blue, Black, Brown, Burnt Sienna, Beige, Burgundy}, and a Default Value of Blue.  There exists an Attribute called "Sockholder" with a Scope of all Socks, a Range of all Potential Sockholders, and a Default Value of the Company.

All Players are Potential Sockholders.  The Company is a Potential Sockholder.  Nothing is a Potential Sockholder unless so explicitly specified in the Rules.

A Potential Sockholder who is the Sockholder of a Sock is said to "hold", "possess", or "own" that Sock.  A Sock is said to "belong" to its Sockholder.

A Player may purchase a Sock from the Company as a Game Action if the following conditions are met:
* The Player possesses at least 80 mackerel.
* The Player has specified a Sock Color for this purchase.
* The Company owns at least one Sock of that Sock Color.

When a Player purchases a Sock from the Company, the Player's mackerel is decreased by m80 and one Sock of the specified Sock Color belonging to the Company has its Sockholder attribute changed to the Player.

A Sock whose Sock Color is [color] may be referred to as "a [color] Sock", "a Sock of the Color [color]", "a Sock of [color]", or "a piece of [color] foowear".  A Sock's Sock Color may be referred to as its Color.

A Player may transfer a Sock of a specified Color to another Potential Sockholder as a Game Action.  One Sock of the specified Sock Color belonging to the Player has its Sockholder attribute changed to the other Potential Sockholder.
}

Create a new Rule, entitled "Dividends", with the following text:
{
There exists an Attribute called "Proposal Color" with a Scope of all Pending, Hurried, or Open Proposals, a Range of {Blue, Black, Brown, Burnt Sienna, Beige, Burgundy, Blank}, and a Default Value of Blank.

A Player may, as a Game Action, change the Proposal Color of a Pending or Hurried Proposal to a value of his choice.  No Player may make more than one such change per nday.

When a Proposal Passes, each Sock whose Sock Color is the same as the Proposal's Proposal Color increases its Sockholder's mackerel by m2.
}

Create 10 Blue Socks.
Create 10 Black Socks.
Create 10 Brown Socks.
Create 10 Burnt Sienna Socks.
Create 10 Beige Socks.
Create 10 Burgundy Socks.

}
