These new Grid squares in Valhalla would be very confusing with Grid Squares 
on the Grid.  It should be Locations, not Grid squares.  Squares are (or 
will be soon) nicknames for Locations on the Grid.
Also, infinite planes would be quite difficult to keep track of.

I'm sure we would have a few people set up a society that would, one by one, 
buy a million planes and sell them to em for free.
Plus, if my societies prop does not pass, how does a society claim 
something?  Or what happens if the society doesn't have a pool of points?

While this seems interesting, I belive that the current rules are so 
inconsitently worded that this rule would cause havoc.  We just aren't ready 
for multiple dimensions yet.  Hopefully we will be soon.

Seeing as it's 8 minutes too late to edit a proposal, I'm afraid I can't 
concientiously vote yes on this one.
