Proposal: The Island awaits you
Cannot be enacted without CoV. Failed. - lilomar

If the Proposal titled “That information is above your clearance level.” failed, this Proposal does nothing.
Add an ULTRAVIOLET rule, “Credits”:
Each citizen has an amount of Credits, tracked in the GNDT. New citizens start with 500 Credits.
Create the appropriate column in the GNDT and set each citizen’s Credits to 500.
Add a RED rule, “The Lottery”:
The weekly lottery is a fun and profitable activity all citizens may participate in. As there is no real reason not to play, all Citizens with 10 Credits or more are Lottery Players. Citizens of higher clearance levels have kindly volunteered to take care of the proceedings for us. Credits will be automatically deducted from all Lottery Players’ accounts when the lottery is held. Who the winner is and how much they have won will be announced in an official post.
Add a GREEN rule, “Officiating the Lottery”:
All citizens of this and higher clearance levels may perform the role of Notary and officiate the Lottery, if it has not yet been done this week. When they do so, they must deduct 10 Credits from each Lottery Player. The total amount collected this way is the Pot. R is the result of DICEX, where X is three plus the amount of Lottery Players. If R is equal or less to the amount of Lottery Players, the notary must increase the Credits of the Rth Lottery player in the GNDT by 80% of the Pot, rounded down, and decrease the Pot by the same amount. All Credits left in the Pot must then be equally divided amongst citizens of this and higher clearance levels, rounded to the nearest integer. Fractions of .5 are rounded up.
When the Lottery is held, the Notary will make a post, and include the name of the Lottery player who won (part of) the pot, and the amount of Credits gained by that Citizen. If no Lottery player won, they are encouraged to make up a nonexistent Citizen and a fictitious pot size instead.

Josh:
This is a bit awkward. The Green rule says “all citizens of this and higher clearance levels,” but citizens of higher clearance levels aren’t citizens for this rule.
Isn’t there a terminology problem there?

Ah, your fix.

Kind of complicated, for a mechanic that just adjusts currency when it’s not clear that currency is going to be relevant in this Dynasty

I agree with Citizen Keba-R. Also, if Citizen Purplbe-R-DDD’s subversive ‘fix’ to the information clearance fails, only GREEN citizens will be able to act as Notaries.
(I’ll probably just promote it to U clearance.)
We need Service Groups! This is definately a job for PLC.

It was the reference to the “Island,” as well as a weekly action involving the increase/decrease of a positive variable.
Purplebeard:
The title is a reference to the movie “The Island”. I’d explain the relevance, but I don’t want to spoil the movie for those who haven’t seen it yet.

Under Rule 2.2.1, this bold attempt to write new documentation at Ultraviolet Clearance is barefaced TREASON. You have been reported through the proper channels.
