TEXT OF ADOPTED PROPOSALS
=========================
Proposal 1980 (Democratic, AI=2.0, Interest=1) by Goethe
Poobah bye-bye

[No mechanics changes, just replaces Grand Poobah with Assessor].

Change the power of Rule 92 (The Assessor) to 2.

Amend Rule 92 (The Assessor) to read:

     The Assessor is an office; its holder is responsible for
     collecting votes and keeping track of related properties.

     Vote Coins are a currency whose recordkeeper is the Assessor.
     As soon as possible after the beginning of each month
     the Assessor SHALL create a Vote Coin in the possession of
     each active first-class player. A player CAN spend a Vote Coin
     in eir possession and specify a player to increment that
     player's Vote Power by one. A player CAN spend a Vote Coin in
     eir possession and specify a player to create a Stain in the
     possession of the specified player.

     Stains are a fixed currency whose recordkeeper is the Assessor.
     As soon as possible after the beginning of each month
     the Assessor CAN and SHALL select a random player who has
     one or more Stains and set that player's Vote Power to 0. Then e
     SHALL destroy one Stain in the possession of each player.


Repeal Rule 52 (The Grand Poobah)

Proposal 1981 (Democratic, AI=4.0, Interest=3) by C-walker
Bring back Emergencies!

Enact a new Power 4 Rule titled "Emergencies" and reading as follows:

     The entities, procedures, and definitions used in this Rule
     SHOULD generally be interpreted to be as they are defined by
     other Rules, except if the definitions used in other Rules are
     generally considered to be 'broken', 'scammable' or if it would
     not be in the best interests of the game to use the said
     definitions. In such cases, this Rule SHOULD be interpreted
     using judicial findings, game custom, common sense, and
     consideration of the best interests of the game.

     For the purposes of this Rule, a Potential Emergency Participant
     (PEP) is an entity defined elsewhere in the Rules as a player,
     except if there is ambiguity or reasonable dispute over which
     entities are players, in which case a PEP is any entity which
     was generally considered to be a player before such ambiguity or
     dispute arose.

     A PEP CAN, with the Consent of B, initiate an Emergency. When an
     Emergency is initiated, the following steps occur in sequence:

      1) The quorum of all Decisions currently in their voting period
         becomes N/1.5, where N is the number of active PEPs.

      2) Refresh Proposals are submitted. A Refresh Proposal is a
         fixed body of text clearly marked as a Refresh Proposal and
         submitted to a Public Forum by a PEP. The author of a
         Refresh Proposal CAN destroy it by announcement, except
         during an Emergency Decision.

      3) The Emergency Decision is initiated. If any of the following
         are true, any PEP CAN initiate the Emergency Decision (as
         described elsewhere):

         a) Every active PEP has submitted a Refresh Proposal.

         b) Every PEP has publicly consented to the initiation of the
            Emergency Decision.

         c) 4 or more days have passed since the initiation of the
            Emergency.

         If allowed elsewhere in this Rule, a PEP CAN initiate the
         Emergency Decision by publicly stating:

         a) That e initiates the Emergency Decision.

         b) The text, title and author of each Refresh Proposal.

      4) The people vote. After an Emergency Decision has been
         initiated, a PEP CAN vote on that Decision by publishing a
         valid ballot indicating which Refresh Proposal e selects. A
         valid ballot:

         a) is submitted less than four days after the initiation of
            the Emergency Decision.

         b) clearly identifies the Refresh Proposal selected.

         c) and has not been publicly retracted by the voter less
            than four days after the initiation of the Decision.

         An ordered list of multiple choices constitutes a
         conditional vote for the first choice if it could be the
         outcome, otherwise the second choice if it could be the
         outcome, and so forth.

      5) The Decision is resolved. If every active PEP has published
         a valid ballot on the decision and/or the Decision was
         initiated more than four days ago, any PEP CAN resolve the
         Emergency Decision by publicly stating:

         a) that e resolves the Emergency Decision.

         b) Which PEPs voted for which Refresh Proposal, and the
            total number of votes for each Refresh Proposal.

     When the Emergency Decision is validly resolved, the Refresh
     Proposal which received the highest number of votes (or if there
     is a tie, the Refresh Proposal with the highest number of votes
     which was submitted earliest) is adopted, its power is set to
     four, and it then takes effect. The Emergency is then ended.

Proposal 1984 (Ordinary, AI=1.0, Interest=1) by C-walker
