The Uber Proposal is actually a collection of things that can easily be put 
into different proposals.  Those things are:

* The creation of a few rules, which themselves aren't that long (I don't 
think any of them top the length of The Grid, at least in my current 
revision)

* The repeal of a few more rules, because they are replaced or included in 
one of the created rules.  Sometimes a few rules, such as Screw That! are 
combined with others and parts of others into one simple sentence.

* The revision of a lot of rules, ususally either a wording change ("Change 
all instances of the word Entity in Rule XXX/X to Player", or some such 
thing), to make it conform to the new rules; or the removal of something 
redundant, such as a lot of rules with (near) identical definitions of 
throwing something

The reason that they are combined into an Uber-Proposal is that if only some 
of the changes pass, then the ruleset will gain the Status, "Wonky and 
Confusing as Hell".

I have a list, mostly in my mind, of actual game changes that will get their 
own seperate Proposals.  My Proposal doesn't really change the game, just 
it's inner workings.

Current Status: Not yet in the game, and already confusing everyone in it.  
Sorry.
