{{
__ Amending Admissions __

Amend r1-4 to read:
{{
A Player is an Outsider who consents to be governed by the rules,  
fulfills all requirements for continued playerhood specified by the  
rules, and has become a Player in a manner specified by the rules.

Any Human External Force may request to join the game by posting a  
message to a Public Forum containing a request to become a Player and  
a uniquely identifying name that e wishes to be known by.

Any player may Ratify or Reject such a request within 10 ndays of its  
being made. The External Force making the request becomes a Player as  
soon as the following are true:
  * At least two ndays have passed since the request was made
  * The request has been Ratified by at least two player
  * Fewer than two players have Rejected the request.

A Player may cease to be a Player by Forfeiting the game; this must be  
done in a Public Forum unless there are no working public fora, in  
which case he may notify the Player he most recently knew was  
Registrar privately instead.

No restrictions may be placed on when a player may forfeit; any player  
may forfeit the game at any time (regardless of any timekeeping device  
used in the game).
}}

Create a new rule, numbered 1-5:
{{
__ Names __

Player names must consist of between 1 and 64 characters from the  
following list:
	• Letters of the alphabet
	• Underscores (_), dashes (-), or apostrophes (')
	• Decimal digits
	• Spaces

For the purposes of identifying players, and determining uniqueness of  
names, the following conventions are to be used:
	• Uppercase letters are to be considered equivalent to their  
lowercase counterparts, and vice-versa.
	• Sequences of one or more consecutive spaces are to be considered  
identical.
	• Leading or trailing sequences of spaces may be disregarded or  
introduced.

Where a player's name might be ambiguous with other grammatical forms,  
it may be surrounded by double quote characters (") to differentiate  
it from surrounding text.

A player may change his name at any time, unless otherwise prohibited,  
by posting a message to a Public Forum, stating his intent to do so,  
and clearly stating both his "old" and "new" names. Such name changes  
take effect upon recognition by the Registrar.
}}

Renumber rule 1-9 to 1-6, rule 1-6 to 1-8, and rule 1-8 to 1-9.

Create a new rule, numbered 1-7:
{{
__ The Ministry of Society __

There exists a ministry known as the Ministry of Society. The Minister  
of Society, also known as the Registrar, is responsible for  
maintaining a Public Display of the current Players and Factions and  
their Attributes and Properties, as well as a Public Display of the  
current Public and Discussion Fora.
