Proposal: The Berkshire Cartleshams
Reached quorum 15 votes to 2. Enacted by Kevan.
Adminned at 05 Feb 2010 20:40:04 UTC
Enact a new subrule to Rule 2.5 (Bloodline), entitled “Surnames”:-
Each Guest has a Surname, which can either be “Cartlesham”, or a name taken from this version of a list of Wodehouse surnames on the BlogNomic wiki.
All Guests start with a surname of Cartlesham. If a Guest ever has a degree of relation above 1000 yet still has a surname of “Cartlesham”, the Executor shall change that Guest’s Surname to a random name given in the list mentioned previously.
In the Rule 2.14 (Late Arrivals), replace “set all their statistics in the GNDT” with:-
set all their statistics in the GNDT (except Surname)
If the proposal “Not From Round These Parts” passed, add to the bulleted list in Rule 2.14:-
- They must choose and adopt a Surname other than “Cartlesham”, from the list given in the “Surnames” rule.
Using a “surname” GNDT field to make it clearer who’s still in the running for a lineage victory. (Was considering having a different surname for Guests with a degree of relation between 500 and 1000, but decided against it for now.)

By the way, the wiki document isn’t gamestate until this passes, so anyone could legally add and remove names while this proposal is pending. The enacting admin of this proposal should undo any changes before he passes this.
Kevan:
No need to worry - I’m deliberately linking to a specific early version of the article, rather than whatever the current version is.
And surely Cheese is Awesome, Darth.

@Kevan: Ah, yes. I had forgotten about that, it being from a dynasty before I joined and all. (Okay, so that makes two inside jokes which have stood the test of time: Mad King Anthony and Awesome Cheese).

Everyone, who has been dead for a time, has a degree of relation over 1000, iirc. So, if you are not lazy, you could find out this easily.
Not that necessary, but

Thats wrong for now, but will become true, when the Proposal Not From Round These Parts passes and it seems to do so.
Put:
@Ienpw Everyone knows if you died anyways, so this doesn’t make it any less secret (not you specifically)
