Re: [s-d] [s-b] MoM and Contracts

[Tyler <wisety@xxxxxxxxx>]

It is obvious you are trying to create a rule, but your proposal should
probably say so. That being said, I'm all for the resurrection of Contracts.
Please allow Contracts to optionally specify other ways that they can be
modified or destroyed, and allow Things to be referenced from outside of the
Contracts' respective scopes. (So that Priests don't just say the Things
don't exist and drop the case.) Thank you for risking Bumhood to bring back
Contract Law!
