Proposal: Quis Custodet

Six players not voting against, quorum is seven. Failed by Kevan.

If the rule called “Trust” exists, add the following to it:

If the Pilot posted a Roster Comment on a Mission, the Pilot is considered part of that Mission’s Response Team.

On Demands or Trials, votes of DEFERENTIAL reflect the EVC of the Mediator, rather than the EVC of the Ship’s Computer. Should the Mediator vote FOR a Demand or Trial that succeeds or passes, or AGAINST a Demand or Trial that fails, their trust is increased by x, where x is the number of EVCs of DEFERENTIAL on that Demand or Trial. Should the Mediator vote AGAINST a Demand or Trial that succeeds or passes, or FOR a Demand or Trial that fails, their Trust is decreased by x in the same way.

As a Daily Action, the Doctor may Examine any Crewmember other than themself by posting a comment to this effect in the GNDT, and increasing or decreasing their Trust by 1. The Doctor may not Examine the same Crewmember more than once per week.

Should a Crewmember’s Trust be reduced to below 0, that Crewmember is stripped of any Command Roles assigned to them.

I don’t see the point of the first sentence.

The first sentence appears to be an attempt by the Pilot (who is also the proposer) to indicate willing to share the risk to the Responder Team set out in Proposal: But Verify. It doesn’t make them any less in control of the way that trust is accreted, though, and still causes some question marks over incentives if the Pilot does turn out to be an Android.

On balance,  for , because I don’t think that the first sentence interacts too badly with the rest of the ruleset, I think this improves upon the Trust theme and I like the Mediator trade-off, although I think it leaves the Doctor a bit underpowered. May need some more work though.

against The proposal that would enact a rule called “Trust” has failed.
