Re: [Spoon-business] RE: [spoon-discuss] Platonism

[Zarpint Jeremy Cook <mcfoufou@xxxxxxxxx>]

And of course, I propose the following:

{{__Opposites of Platonism__

Create the following philosophies:
{{__Pragmatism__

A Pragmatist believes that the B Nomic Rules do not make up the universe,
and that they can be broken.

A Pragmatist gets, once per nweek, an extra vote on any one proposal that
provides for, in any way other than forbidding, the breaking of a rule, on
the condition e votes NO for any one proposal that forbids the breaking
of a rule.
}}

{{__Aristotelian__

An Aristotelian sees the world in terms of classifications of divisions
and categories. E believes that B Nomic can be best understood by breaking
it up into parts.

An Aristotelian gets an extra vote on any one proposal that defines new terms
provided e votes NO on any proposal that reduces the number of rules or
removes more definitions than it introduces.
}}

{{__Semi-Regularist__

A Semi-Regularist believes that structure in B Nomic is important, but
only to a point.

A Semi-Regularist gets a YES vote on any one proposal that adds a requirement
to the game provided e also votes YES on any one proposal that removes one.
}}

{{__Carnalian__

A Carnalian disagrees with the B Nomic Motto, and thinks not only is sex
better than B Nomic, it's better than anything else.

A Carnalian gets an extra vote on N propositions, provided e has made N
proposals that refer to one or more sexual acts, or types of sexual acts,
and do not penalize any sexual act or type of sexual act.
}}

Add the following WONKO delimited paragraph to the end of Rule 1252:

WONKO
Rules may have an Attribute called "Philosophical Position". A Philosophy
may have an accompanying string of characters called a Position. If any Player
has a Philosophy with a Mandate rewarding or requiring a Proposal of a
certain type or with a certain characteristic, and a Proposal of that
type made by that Player passes, any Rules that Proposal creates gain the
Philosophical Position of the Player's Philosophy. A Rule with a Philosophical
Position of X may be referred to as an X Rule, where X is any string of
characters.
WONKO

Set the following Philosophies to have the following Positions:

Affected Visionary	Affectedly Seen
Agreeable		Agreeable
Benevolent Activist	Benevolent
Cogno-Intellectual	Cogno-Intellectual
CS Geek			Geeky
Libertarian		Libertarian
Plotting Radical	Radical
Selective Lobbyist	Selectively Lobbied
Aristotelian		Aristotelian
Carnalian		Carnal
Pragmatist		Pragmatic
Semi-Regularist		Semi-Regular

and if the Philosophy "Platonism" exists:

Platonism		Platonic
