Re: [s-d] [s-b] Proper NTime Clock |
Ignore hotmail's retarded formatting, it should read as below: I submit the following proposal titled "NTime" (AI=2 II=2): {Create a power 2 rule entitled "The Clock" with the following text: {There exists an entity known as "the clock", which has 4 properties: a) An on/off switch, tracked by the Timekeepor, which may have the values On or Off, defaulting to On b) nday, which is an integer value between 1 and 12 (inclusive), defaulting to 1 c) nweek, which is a non-negative integer value, defaulting to 1d) nyear, which a non-negative integer value, defaulting to 1 At every occurrence of midnight UTC while the on/off switch is is set to On, the nday value increases by 1, unless this would set it to a value greater than 12, in which case the nday value is set to 1 and the nweek value is increased by 1. When the nweek value becomes equal to a multiple of 10, the nyear count increases by 1. A player CAN flip the on/off switch without 2 objections. Changes to the nday, nweek and nyear values are secured with a power threshold of 1. The Timekeepor is an office whose holder is responsible for tracking the values of the clock's properties. The Timekeepor's weekly report includes the nday, nweek and nyear values at the time the report is published and the value of the on/off switch. } For each instance of the text "week" in the ruleset with the exception of rule 116, replace it with "nweek", beginning with the first instance and continuing in order. Replace point (b) of rule 39 with: {(b) B epochs: (1) ndays are the periods of time between two consecutive increases of the clock's nday value. (2) nweeks are the periods of time between two consecutive increases of the clock's nweek value. (3) nyears are the periods of time between two consecutive increases of the clock's nyear value. (4) rdays begin at midnight UTC. "day" is synonymous with "rday" } Set the clock's nday value to 1. Set the clock's nweek value to 168. Set the clocks nyear value to 15.} _________________________________________________________________ Windows Live Messenger: Thanks for 10 great years—enjoy free winks and emoticons. http://clk.atdmt.com/UKM/go/157562755/direct/01/ _______________________________________________ spoon-discuss mailing list spoon-discuss@xxxxxxxxx http://lists.ellipsis.cx/mailman/listinfo/spoon-discuss
