I think a satisfaction based system may work better by allowing all players a chance to say whether the kick should be recognized and leaving the kick giver and receiver out of that decision. I submit the following proposal: > > {{__Even Fairer Kicks in the Ass__ > > Replace the text of Rule 79 with the following: > {{There exists a part of the game state known as the List Of Generally Abhorred Stuff, which may be abbreviated LOGAS. The LOGAS contains the following list of actions: > > * Performing any action which the rules say a player MUST NOT (or SHALL NOT but CAN) do. > * Failing to perform any action which the rules say a player MUST or SHALL do within 3 ndays if the Clock is on, 3 wdays if the Clock is off, or within another time limit prescribed by the rule requiring the action. > * Attempting IMPOSSIBLE changes of Location [[as it causes headaches for the Registrar]] > > Whenever a player performs an action that is on the List of Generally Abhorred Stuff in a public forum, any player may state in a public forum that that player has performed an action on the LOGAS and give that player a Kick in the Ass with one supporter and without two objections. A player may not object to an announcement of intent that they be given a Kick in the Ass [[and the player giving the kick is forbidden from supporting the kick by the fact they are the executor - see rule 75]]. > > Multiple Kicks in the Ass may not be given in response to a single Action or Forum message. > > When a Kick in the Ass is given, the player who recieved the Kick loses 5 points and gains the attribute “Sore” for the duration of one nweek. > > When a Kick in the Ass is given, the player who delivered the Kick receives 5 points and gains the attribute “Kicker of Asses” for the duration of one nweek. > > Players may recognize that eir action is on the LOGAS and give emself a Kick in the Ass, this does not need to be done with one supporter or without two objections. When a self-inflicted Kick in the Ass is given, the player who received and self-inflicted the Kick loses 5 points and gains the attribute “Sore, but Self-Aware” for the duration of one nweek. A player who Kicks eir own Ass does not receive 5 points or gain the attribute “Kicker of Asses.” > > Any player who successfully delivers three or more Kicks in the Ass to players other than emself in a single nweek receives an additional 10 points, awarded upon giving the third Kick in the Ass, and gains the attribute “Supreme Kicker of Asses” for the duration of three nweeks. > > > If at any point a player has recieved more than one Kick in the Ass in one nweek, e receives the attribute Buttplated for one nweek. If a player is Buttplated, and e receives a Kick in the Ass, the player who gave em the Kick in the Ass does not receive any points, nor does said Kick count towards a Supreme Kicker of Asses attribute.

You gotta earn that.]] > }} > }} > > This is Proposal 6062. > > [[I could also change the ambiguity about the "duration of one nweek" in this rule but I'm unsure which definition to use and this should probably be addressed on a more fundamental level by amending rule 3.
