Proposal: Fixing Endgame

Add the following to the rule “Calls for Judgment”

A worker may choose to make a Call for Judgment a “Time Freeze” as well by putting the words “Time Freeze” in the CfJ’s title. If e does so, e may not post the CfJ anonymously.

When a Time Freeze is posted, the game goes into Hiatus, if it hasn’t already. During this time, the only game actions that may be taken are those covered by Rules “Lifeforms”, “Calls for Judgment”, “Gamestate Tracking” and “Victory and Ascension”.

When a Time Freeze is resolved, provided there no other DoVs or Time Freezes pending, the Hiatus ends. Otherwise, the Hiatus continues until there are no pending DoVs or Time Freezes.

Replace the following in “Victory and Ascension”

and if no other DoVs are still pending,

with

and if no other DoVs or Time Freezes are still pending,

The Time Freeze would, of course, be used sparingly, only when someone sees a loophole that needs immediate plugging. Right now, people have been posting DoVs to prolong the Hiatus while CfJs pass. This would allow for the CfJs themselves to prolong the Hiatus.
