[s-b] Proposal resubmission: Competition in the Sock Market


I withdraw my Rule Addition and two Rule Change submissions from this past
Friday.

I submit the following updated single proposal in its place.

-------------------------------------------

I propose the creation of a new Rule and a number of related rule
modifications.  This set of changes shall be counted as one proposal and
this proposal shall have a Proposal Color of Black:

<Proposal>

   <Rule Modification>

   Add the following sentence to Rule 4E11: Attributes, preceding the
sentence that begins, "A List Attribute is a game object..."

   *     Attributes are Game Objects, and as such may have sub-Attributes
that further describe the Attributes themselves.

   </Rule Modification>
 
   <New Rule>

      Title:   Mortal Enemies
      Body:   There is an attribute named Mortal Enemy with a Scope of all
Sock Colors, with a Range of the names of all Sock Colors plus "Blank", and
a Default Value of Blank.  A Sock Color named in the Mortal Enemy attribute
of another Sock Color is said To Be the Mortal Enemy of that Sock Color.  As
a Game Action, a player may spend a Bucketful of mackerel to change the
Mortal Enemy attribute of a given Sock Color to any valid Mortal Enemy
value, subject to the following conditions:

   *	No Sock Color can have more than one Mortal Enemy at a time.
   *	Any Sock Color can only be the Mortal Enemy of at most one other
Sock Color.
   *  No Sock Color can be its own Mortal Enemy
   *	No Sock Color can have its Mortal Enemy changed more frequently than
once every Few ndays.

      /* Note that being a Mortal Enemy can be, but is not necessarily,
reciprocal. */

   </New Rule>

   <Modification>

   Modify rule 4E69: Dividends as follows.  
	
   *	Replace "No Player may make more than one such change per nday."
with "No proposal may have its color changed more than once every Handful of
ndays"
   *	Append following text to rule:  "When a Proposal with a given Sock
Color Fails, each Sock whose Color's Mortal Enemy is the same as the
Proposal's Proposal Color increases its Sockholder's mackerel by m10. "

   </Modification>

   <Modification>

   Modify rule 4E80: Laundress as follows:

   *	Replace "including the color of proposals. " with "including the
color of proposals and the Mortal Enemy of each Sock Color."

   </Modification>

</Proposal>
