Change the player Ienpw III’s name to redtara.

Change the definition of the keyword Should to “is recommended to”.

Create a new rule called “Rogue Copbots”:

The Rogue Copbots have a Location, which is a Floor (defaulting to the lowest floor), which is publicly tracked. A Zone which has a Floor associated with it that has Rogue Copbots in it cannot have its associated Rules amended by Proposal, unless its proposer can Pass The Copbots (by default, proposers can’t).

All Citizens can Pass The Copbots and this sentence can and should be removed from the Ruleset by any Citizen when the Dynastic Ruleset has 5 or more rules.

Every time a Proposal is Resolved, the Copbots go up one Floor, if they can. Otherwise, they go down one Floor.

If Gamestate is Gamestate doesn’t pass, this Proposal does nothing instead.

Add the following rule, called “Electricity”, to the Dynastic Ruleset:

If this rule is not at the bottom of the Dynastic Ruleset, any Citizen may move it there at any time.

The Breaker Panel is a publicly tracked list of Currents and their attached variables. There exist eleven Currents, labeled respectively by the letters A through K. Each Current has a Breaker, which is either a single Floor of Earthlink Tower or blank (defaulting to blank).

If two or more Currents’ Breakers are the same Floor, that floor immediately becomes Shorted Out, and all Currents cease to have that Floor as a Breaker.

The list of Floors that are Shorted Out is publicly tracked. A Floor that is Shorted Out cannot become the Breaker of a Current. If a clause in a Proposal would make a Floor that is Shorted Out the Breaker of one or more Currents, that clause has no effect.

If Proposal: Gamestate is Gamestate was enacted, add the following subrule, called “Breaker Access”, to the rule “Electricity”:

If this subrule is not at the bottom of the rule Electricity, any Citizen may move it there at any time.

A Proposal which would modify the status of any Currents and/or their Breakers if enacted is Unpopular if any Citizen is both occupying this Zone and has a valid Vote of AGAINST on that Proposal.

If Proposal: In at the Ground Floor is not enacted, this has no effect.
The Earthlink Tower is magically moved up a few metres.
The floor originally called B1 is now called G (for ground), and the floors B2 ~ B8 is renamed B1 ~ B7 as a result.
The floors specified by proposals which also have no effect if Proposal: In at the Ground Floor is retroactively changed to the new label.

For each Citizen, roll {B2,B1,1,2,3} in the Dice Roller, and set their Floor to the result.

i would like to be unidled, please!

If Proposal: In at the Ground Floor was not enacted then this proposal has no effect.

Add the following as a subrule to the rule Floors, called Vertical Movement:

For the purposes of this rule, a subrule to a dynastic rule is considered to be distinct from its parent, and vice-versa.

Each dynastic rule or subrule may be referred to as a Zone. Each Zone represents a number of Floors. A Citizen is said to be occupying a Zone if their current Floor is represented by that Zone.

A Zone represents floors as follows:
* The 72 Floors are represented from the bottom of the dynastic ruleset up; so Floor B8 will always be in the bottommost Zone.
* Each Zone represents a number of Floors equal to 72/n, rounded down, where n is the number of Zones.
* Any Floors not allocated to a Zone as a result of this calculation are not currently accessible, due to an intermittent electrical failure in the elevator shaft brought about by the ongoing unrest.

The Floors represented by each Zone may optionally be tracked by appending their numbers to the end of the title of those Zones in square brackets (eg Floors [B8-64]); these appendages may be referred to as Floor Markers. Floor Markers are not a part of the title of any Rule and are flavour text; any Citizen may update them at any time if they are not currently accurate.

Enact a new rule, “Floors”:-

Earthlink Tower has a number of Floors: 64 above ground (numbered 1 through 64 in sequence) and 8 below ground (numbered B1 through B8 in sequence). The top floor of the Tower is Floor 64, and the bottom is Floor B8, with Floor 1 being directly above Floor B1.

Each Citizen is on a Floor of Earthlink Tower, defaulting to Floor 1. A Citizen’s Floor is publicly tracked.

Angling and zooming the cameras up from the shapeless white glow of the palace, the infrared glare balanced out and Comms Director Alger could see further packs of drones swarming through the smoke clouds.

Hillman didn’t look up from the service panel. “So is this an attack or a liberation?”

Alger switched the camera feed. “Unclear.” Military drones were skimming over the city towards Earthlink Tower. Their callsigns had all been scrambled, but the silhouettes were unmistakable. Rangefinder numbers span down on Alger’s monitor, a few turning green as she watched. “Barrels aren’t hot. But they’re not in weapons range yet. Maybe five minutes.”

“Defence control is only three floors up.” said Hillman, “If the grid isn’t up already, I can bring it online.”

Hillman closed up the panel and stood back. With a melodious ping, the executive elevator doors slid open, revealing a plushly carpeted chamber that was only three feet lower than it should have been. “See, I told you they—”

And all the lights went out.

Change the term “Cell” to “Citizen” and “Ministry of Information” to “Drone”. Change the dynastic tracking page to “Earthlink Tower”.

Interregnum open thread

A dark cloud rises over Clatoc as its Colonial Palace burns, and tight swarms of commandeered military drones cut through the smoke on their way to Earthlink Tower.

As you will all have seen on the news just now, I have achieved Revolutionary Victory.

Add a new Building to the list in “Buildings”:-

Propaganda Mill [25]{Public}
* Select a secretly-random Ideology from those held by no Adherents of Cells (if any such Ideologies exist): all Citizens lose that Ideology, and it is deleted from the List of Ideologies.

Reword the text in the rule “The Census” that reads “If there are fewer than 100 Citizens, the Ministry of Information may generate a new Citizen with the following qualities” to read:

If there are fewer than 200 Citizens, the Ministry of Information may and should generate a new Citizen with the following qualities

To the bullet list in “News”, add:-

* If any Cells have achieved victory in the current dynasty, a list of those Cells
* If any Cells have achieved Collaborator Victory, the Ideology of those Cells
* If any Cells have achieved Revolutionary Victory, a list of all the Citizens whose Workplace was the Colonial Palace when its effect was last triggered, and the Cells they adhere to

Reword the bullet list item that begins with “Revolutionary Victory” as follows:

Revolutionary Victory: A Cell is Defiant if and only if it has an Ideological Proximity with the Ministry of Information of 1 or less, and if the effect of the Colonial Palace building has been applied at a time when that Cell was a Leader. To apply the effect of the Colonial Palace building, the Ministry of Information must roll DICEX, where X is the sum of the Notoriety scores of all Cells which are Leaders. The result of the roll corresponds to the series of contiguous sequences in the range of 1 to X, where each sequence is as long as the Notoriety of a given Cell which is a Leader, if those Cells are ordered alphabetically by name. The Cell who has the Ministry of Information’s roll fall within the bounds of their sequence achieves victory.

In “New World Order” replace

Revolutionary Victory: A Cell is Defiant if and only if it has an Ideological Proximity with the Ministry of Information of 1 or less, and if the effect of the Colonial Palace building has been triggered at a time when that Cell was a Leader. A Cell has achieved Revolutionary Victory if it is Defiant, and if its Notoriety is higher than that of every other Defiant Cell.

Change
“Each Cell has an Ideology, which is privately tracked by the Ministry of Information (although a Cell can and should keep track of their Ideology themselves).”
from Ideologies of Dynastic Ruleset
to
“Each Cell has an Ideology, which is privately tracked by the Ministry of Information. The Ministry can and should tell the Cell, at their earliest convenience, in confidence, their old and new Ideology, whenever a Cell’s Ideology changes.”

For each of the valid votes on this proposal that contains the phrase “I’m not ready.”, set the Cell that cast that vote to Unprepared.

For each Cell that is not an Influential Entity, set that Cell to Unprepared.

Add the following to the sub-rule “New World Order” as a new paragraph, underneath the first paragraph and above the second one:

If a Cell is Unprepared, that fact is privately tracked by the Ministry of Information. A Cell which is an Influential Entity may choose to cease being Unprepared at any time by notifying the Ministry of Information that they would like to cease being Unprepared. A Cell may choose to become Unprepared at any time by notifying the Ministry of Information that they would like to become Unprepared.

Add the following to the end of the sub-rule “New World Order”, under a new bullet point:

Renaissance victory: At the end of Cycle 10, roll a DICEX, where X is the sum total of the Notoriety of all Cells with the exception of Unprepared Cells, as posted in the Clatoc Clarion, Cycle 10.  Then, do the following atomic action, which is known as “Evaluating the Cell”, for the first Cell alphabetically that is not unprepared, assuming that M is a variable that defaults to 0 and is privately tracked by the ministry of information, and that N is a variable that is equal to the Notoriety of the Cell that this atomic action is currently being done for:

* If the dice roll is between M and M+N, then make the Cell that is currently being evaluated Great, and the Ministry of Information should then create a post saying which Cell has become Great.

* Otherwise, set M equal to M+N, and repeat the steps of this action for the next Cell alphabetically that is not unprepared.
A Great Cell may achieve victory.

Repeal “Bounties”.

.

If any of the Cells named Kevan, Clucky or Brendan have voted against this proposal it has no effect.

In the rule New World Order, remove the text “A Cell may not achieve Victory in this dynasty except by fulfilling one of its stipulations.”.

Roll DICE100. If the result is between 1 and 40, the Cell named Kevan has achieved Victory. If the result is between 41 and 80, the Cell named Clucky has achieved Victory. If the result is between 81 and 100, the Cell named Brendan has achieved Victory. Append the result into the admin field of this proposal.
