In Rule 2.14, replace “Their Degree of Relation is set to a new value that is between their previous degree of relation and 1250.” with:-
Their Degree of Relation is set to a new value between 1001 and 2000.
Making it so that being killed definitely (rather than just “maybe”) takes you out of the immediate running for a lineage victory, which will let researchers safely eliminate guests from the bloodline, let the dead know where they stand, and make each murder more effective.
It’d still be entirely possible to win through a big enough massacre, or a bloodline-changing/victory-claiming Crisis that enough other guests supported, but I think death needs to be a bigger risk than “keep your old role or upgrade to a better one, then be randomly - but potentially not very - worse off in the lineage”.

If I was going to be dead for that long I’d just idle instead.

Note that I’m still against this even though I am “back in”.

Since I’m the one who complain about the Degree of Relation, what can be my vote?
Of course,
@Ienpw: By the way, we all know why you are against, looking at the Bloodline Board…=)
Ienpw III:
No, it’s not because of that either.
Kevan:
Note that Ienpw returned as a Late Arrival before this enacted, so may still have a degree of relation lower than 1001.
