Hm. I created this proposal after my other one was vetoed, but the timestamp is BEFORE. Ah well, I’ll let you all deal with it. Bye.

So someone has to stay up until midnight? Then roll at exactly one second past? Hmm

per dogfish

CoV   yuri suggested that we handle it the same way as we did in the last dynasty with the weekly repeal. However, I think that was illegal in the first place.

Oh, and dogfish: The “stay up until midnight” part is moot. Remember that all BlogNomic time is UTC. In Mountain Time, for example, it’s 5 PM. In Pacific Time, it’s 4 PM. In Alaska and Hawaii, it’s only 3:00 PM! In Central and Eastern time, it’s 6:00 and 7:00, respectively. On the East Coast of Australia, it’s 10 AM, and in Darwin and Adelaide it’s 9:30. In New Zealand it’s noon.

This is more easily enforced as ‘during each week, no player can take an action (in the GNDT/at all) until…’ 

Impossible to deal with at the moment

The way we did it last time, it just said “The Rules are repealed.” It happened whether we updated it at that exact moment, or not.

This, however, would require an action that takes place at an exact moment. Further, it doesn’t specify a punishment if the action is ignored, so it’s not really tenable.

I think we’ll be able to idle yuri soon.

Wait, Alaska and Hawaii are in different time zones.

No please

Qwaz: The Aleutians are in the Hawaii time zone, and I got confused. In Alaska, it’s 3; in Hawaii and the Aleutians, it’s 2:00.

Insisting that someone does something at an exact time each week, without specifying who, will be a disaster; we’ll be in a mess of CFJs the first time it doesn’t happen at the exact time specified.

  per ais; I hate CfJs.
