Enact a new subrule of “Buildings” entitled “Court”:

The Court is a type of Building that can be built by spending 2 Parcels, one of which must be Occupied, and 3 Wealth. It is Improper for a Noble to reduce the number of Knights of a Noble with a greater Court Influence than them per the rule “Acts of War”.

Advancing honourably.

Clucky, Earl of Northumberland, Earl of Oxford made no Story Post to announce his Tournament, so I am reverting the Wealth spent and removing it from the Tournaments page.

In the rule “Tournaments” replace “Once per time advancement, any noble may start a tournament if one is not already in progress” with “At any time, a noble may start a tournament”

In the rule “Monarchy” after “The Crown for at least three consecutive Advancements of Time” add ” (and all of the time in-between those Advancements of Time)”

Add the following to the rule “Knights”

At any time, a Noble may spend two knights to destroy an Abeyant Barony, removing it from the Peerage page.

Enact a new rule entitled “Trade”:

Any Noble may Trade resources with another Noble if they are in agreement on the terms of the Trade. Tradeable resources are Wealth, Knights, Unoccupied Parcels, and Artisans.

My turn to try this

For the sheer audacity to have more wealth than I have, I denounce you Skju, Earl of Kent.

Append to the rule “Family Matters”:

The GNDT row “York” has a Family value of “York”, and the GNDT row “Lancaster” has a Family value of “Lancaster”.

Enact a new subrule of “Family Matters” entitled “Family Actions”:

Any Noble with a Family may submit a Family Action, for their Family to perform a Dynastic action as an individual Noble would, by posting an entry in the “Family Action” category (as long as they doesn’t have a pending Family Action, or their Family doesn’t have 3 pending Family Actions). A Family Action’s title’s Subject must begin with either “YORK:” or “LANCASTER:”, corresponding to the Family of the Noble who posted it; the EVCs on a Family Action are only those from Nobles in its corresponding Family. The oldest pending Family Action passes if it has been pending for at least 24 hours and it has at least 2N/3 votes FOR, where N is the number of Nobles in its corresponding Family. The oldest pending Family Action fails if it has been pending for at least 36 hours and cannot be enacted, or if it has been pending for at least 24 hours and it has at least 2N/3 votes AGAINST, where N is the number of Nobles in its corresponding Family.

In the rule “Idle Nobles” after “Admins may render themselves Idle at any time” add “, provided they’ve made a post or comment declaring their intent to do so in the past four days”

hopefully I won’t make any mistakes this time =)

Due to the mass corruption in the House of Lancaster, I have managed to successfully infiltrate it and have become the Duke of Lancaster. Just to clarify my math (and to double check it) my total wealth spent was 47 (Barony = 4 + 5 = 9, Earldom = 8 + 2*2 = 12, Dukedom = 12 + 4 + 8 (to Skju, Earl of Kent) + 2 (to Rationality, Baron Bywell).  = 26, total + 9+ 12 + 26 = 47)

Add the following to the end of “Family Matters”:

Each family’s Dignity is equal to the average of its members’ dignity (rounding down to the nearest integer). If a Noble’s dignity is more than 5 greater than their family’s then their dignity is Tarnished by Association and is reduced by 1 when time advances (consequently, their family’s dignity may also be reduced).

Change the Noble Tavros Nitram’s name to Tavros.

If the player controlling the Noble Tavros has had a second account which they are currently unable to access, it is affirmed that they do not have control over this second account.

Append the following to the sub-rule “Cities”

When calculating the cost of obtaining a title per the rule “obtainment” the noble may reduce the cost by up to C/4 rounded down, where C is their City Influence. You may only reduce the cost to a minimum 4, 8, and 12 for Baronies, Earldoms, and Dukedoms respectively.

I wish to cease to be idle,

In the rule “Titles” after “Additionally, a list of each of Noble containing the number of titles they hold, and any Noble who is their Lord (and the number of times that Noble fulfills the Nobles requirement) is kept on this page.” add “It is Improper to update any Titles and not also correctly update this list to match within ten minutes”

In the rule “Settling” after “A Noble has a Settler score tracked in the GNDT equal to Floor( (K - O) * U/P ), where K is the number of knights, O is the number Occupied parcels, U is the number of Unoccupied parcels, and P is the total number of parcels that the Noble has.” add “It is Improper to make any changes that effect a Noble’s Settler Score and not correctly update their Settler Score within ten minutes of performing the original changes.”

might as well try my hand at this…

Add to the end of the list of actions in the rule “Taxes”:

Each noble gains T/3 Dignity (rounding down), where T is the number of titles that noble has.

Append to the end of the rule “Taxes”:

It is improper to perform any Dynastic action while Time is being Advanced, except for the Advancement.

Henri idles out after 11 days of inactivity. Quorum holds steady at 5.

To the end of the list of actions in “Taxes” add the following:

• Each noble gains 2+T/3 Dignity (rounding down), where T is the number of titles that noble has.

In the rule “Land” Replace

No Noble may take any action that, in part or in entirety, would cause that sum to exceed 110.

with

No Noble may take any action that, in part or in entirety, would cause that sum to exceed 110 except for the following exceptions: If acquiring a Title would cause the sum to exceed 110, the Noble acquiring the Title instead gains as many parcels as possible without the sum exceeding 110. Nobles may unidle and cause the sum to exceed 110 but then the Noble who unidled immediately loses parcels (starting with their unoccupied parcels) until the sum no longer exceeds 110.

In the rule “Titles” replace

For every Title, the Noble who holds that Title (if there is one) receives 2 Wealth

with

For every Title, the Noble who holds that Title (if there is one) receives 3 Wealth

in the rule “City” replace

A Title within which a City has been built gives 3 Wealth (instead of 2) when Time Advances.

with

A Title within which a City has been built gives 4 Wealth (instead of 3) when Time Advances.

ssia

I figure we might as well make use of this mechanic so I am going to host the first tournament. I am spending 42 wealth so N is 3.

Append to the rule “Monarchy”:

The current holder of The Crown is tracked at the top of the Peerage wiki page. A Noble claiming The Crown must announce the claim in a blog post. It is Outrageous for a Noble to claim The Crown more than once per Advancement of Time.

Enact a new subrule of “Monarchy” entitled “Royalty”:

Every Noble has a numerical statistic called “Royalty” and tracked in the GNDT. Royalty is equal to (Knights+TitlesHeld)*(OccupiedParcels+GreatWorks)*(Dignity+Wealth)/(1+TotalParcels), where those factors are pertaining to the individual Noble in question. Any Noble may update each and every Noble’s Royalty at any time, except when Time is being Advanced. The Noble with the highest Royalty value may claim The Crown at any time and is exempt from the rule “Seizing the Crown”, if it exists.

I’m advancing time.

In the rule “Buildings”:
Amend the line that reads:

A Noble’s Influence for a type of Building is B+2E+3D, where B, E, and D are the number of Buildings of that type that they have built within Baronies, Earldoms, and Dukedoms, respectively.

to read:

A Noble’s Influence for a type of Building is B+2E+3D+S, where B, E, and D are the number of Buildings of that type that they have built within Baronies, Earldoms, and Dukedoms, respectively. S is outside factors that increase a buildings influence, including hosting a tournament. A noble may, at any time, spend 5 Dignity to increase the influence of on of their buildings by 1 (thus increasing S for that building).

In the subrules to “Buildings”:
Append to Cities:

A Noble with a City Influence of at least 4 also gains (CI - 3) to their total progress each time time advances, where CI is the noble’s City Influence.

Append to Church:

The Noble (P) with the highest church influence, may, once per two time advancements, make any single legal game action a Mandated actions, allowing all nobles, including (P) one time advancement to attempt to complete this Mandated action or suffer the dignity cost of 5 dignity. The (P) is responsible for deducting the appropriate dignity from all offending nobles. If (P) loses their status of having highest Church Influence, any current Mandated action becomes no longer mandated. If no Nobles take a Mandated action (not including P), all of P’s churches are destroyed and P loses 10 dignity.

Enact a subrule to “Monarchy” entitled “Seizing the Crown”:

If the crown is currently unoccupied, any noble may take the crown by force by expending 30 of their knights. This number is reduced by 1 per point of influence they have in Training Grounds.
If the crown is occupied, any noble may reduce or increase the total number of knights of the noble who has taken the crown per the rules in “Acts of War”.
It is outrageous for a noble holding the crown to not host a tournament at least once per time advancement. (This only requires proposing a tournament, but does not depend on people actually participating in the tournament).
If any of the following are true the noble who has the crown loses the crown. This check occurs before any other (including victory):

• the Noble holding the crown has no knights
• the Noble holding the crown has less than 50 dignity

Holding of the crown is tracked at the top of the peerage wiki.
It is improper for a noble to harm the noble holding the crown if they are members of the same family.

Add the following to the end of rule “Titles”

If a Noble becomes Idle, he automatically relinquishes all Titles he holds as outlined in the rule Relinquishment.

Remove all Titles held by Idle Nobles.

The only way new Baronies can be created is through the rule which states “If no Abeyant Baronies exist, any Noble may create one with a name of “Baron” or “Baron of”, followed by a unique name from either of the lists on this page (from the column titled “Name of barony”).”

ever since May the 3rd, the Baronies of Little Dunmow, Little Easton and Bolingbroke and been Abeyant yet the so called “Rationality, Earl of Derby” (if that really is his title) created the Barony of Hooton Pagnell (http://blognomic.com/wiki/index.php?title=Peerage&diff=15974&oldid=15970) on May 4th. He has been pretending to live in this imaginary Barony ever sense! Now, everyone has missed this mistake for two weeks. Trying to figure out just how much Wealth and other things he earned from this would be rather complicated. So for fairness purposes:

* All gamestate should exist as if the action taken by Rationality to create the Earldom of Derby and the Barony of Hooton Pagnell was legally performed.
* Remove the Title of Earl of Derby and every Title below it. Give Rationality 5 Wealth.

Amend the second sentence of “Family Matters” to read as follows:

The valid values for Family are “York”, “Lancaster”, and “Warwick”.

Assign all Nobles with a Family value of “-” a Family value of “Warwick”.

The Noble QuinnR, having not been present at Court for a week, is hereby declared to be Idle! Quorum falls to 9!

Time advances

It has been four Advancements of Time since the last actions of Feuding between kikar, Duke of York, Earl of Dorset, Baron Weobly, Baron Veralum, Baron of Monmouth and Purplebeard, Duke of Lancaster, Earl of Norfolk, Earl of Northumberland, Baron Beanley, Baron Finch; More than enough time has passed to show that the hostility is gone. As such, I declare the Feud annulled. May the ire of the past stay as such.

Append to the rule “Monarchy”:

The first Noble to hold The Crown for at least three consecutive Advancements of Time obtains the title of King.

Make the following a new paragraph in the rule monarchy

If at any time all of the following are true of a single noble, then the noble may obtain the title of king by making a post to that effect.
1. The noble has a dignity rating that is equal to or greater than the average dignity of all nobles and the noble is not a scoundrel.
2. The noble’s income is greater than the average net change in Wealth pursuant to the Rule Taxes the last time that the time was advanced.
3. All members of the house that the noble does not belong to are defenseless.
4. The noble is either The Duke of York or The Duke of Lancaster.

Append the following as a new point at the end of the rule Taxes.

Set each nobles Income to their net change in wealth during this advancement of time.

Make the following a new paragraph in the rule Wealth

Each noble has a numerical status entitled income which is tracked in the GNDT, and defaulting to 0

Enact a new subrule of “Buildings” entitled “Church”:

The Church is a type of Building that can be built by spending 2 Parcels, one of which must be Occupied, and 2 Wealth. A Noble with a Church may, once per Advancement of Time, give 1 Wealth to the holder of each Title below that of the Church to gain C*T/2 Dignity (rounded up), where C is their Church Influence and T is the number of Titles below that of the Church.

Time Advances.

Swap the order of core rules 1.4 and 1.5, renumbering them appropriately and updating any references to either of those rules as necessary to have the result of gameplay being exactly as it was previously except that the order of the rules are switched.

Create a new Dynastic Rule entitled “Tyranny”:

Once per dynasty, a Noble may elect to Tyrannize the Peasantry by expending five knights. They then add a value determined using the formula for Settler score in rule 2.8.1 to their Wealth. This action is Outrageous.

I unidle.

Add the following to the end of the rule “Titles”

Additionally, a list of each of Noble containing the number of titles they hold, and any Noble who is their Lord (and the number of times that Noble fulfills the Nobles requirement) is kept on this page.

to read

The tournament automatically ends after at least 24 hours once time advances, and the noble who advances time should reflect the tournament as “Closed”. Once a Tournament is closed, no new nobles may join the tournament, but any noble who has pledged at least 1 knight may pledge more knights up to (and including) the maximum number of knights pledged by any other noble for the given tournament. 24 hours after a tournament has been closed, any noble may resolve a “Closed” tournament and then change the status of the tournament to be “Resolved”.

Time advances

if the “Tournament” page has not been created, create and blank it.

If the rule “Tournament” does not exist, enact the following rule entitled “Tournament”. Otherwise, Replace the text of “Tournament” with the following:

Once per time advancement, any noble may start a tournament if one is not already in progress. In order to host a tournament, a noble must make a Story Post with “Tournament” included in the title, must update the “Tournament” wiki to reflect the new tournament, and must spend N*14 wealth, where N is any non-zero, non-negative, integer. Once a tournament has begun and is not “Closed”, any noble may decide to join the tournament by posting in the comments to the tournament page their intent to join and how many knights they are sending to the tournament (K), they must deduct K from their total number of knights, and they must add themselves to the proper location in the “Tournament” wiki along with the number of knights. The tournament automatically ends once time advances, and the noble who advances time should reflect the tournament as “Closed”. At any time, any noble may resolve a “Closed” tournament and then change the status of the tournament to be “Resolved”. If time advances before any noble joins the tournament, then the noble hosting the tournament regains the spent wealth, and the tournament becomes “Resolved”.

Resolving a tournament:
The noble who resolves the tournament rolls S = 1 DICEK for every noble who joined the tournament, where K is the total amount of knights pledged. The noble who gets the highest score S is awarded N*8 wealth and 5 dignity, the noble with the second highest score is awarded N*4 wealth and 3 dignity, and the nobles with the the third highest score is awarded N*2 wealth and 2 dignity. Additionally, any noble attending the tournament gains 1 dignity. The noble hosting the tournament gains N*5 dignity and 2 knights (The top two winning knight are offered a place in the noble’s army). If there is a tie for any position, the rolls for that position are re-rolled until there is a victor. The victor then takes the position that was being rolled for, and the loser takes the next highest position. Thus if there is a tie for first and second place, a tie breaker will keep one of the of the nobles in first place and put one of them in second. The nobles who were tied for second then roll for third place, the winner getting third place and the loser getting nothing.

Sponsoring a noble:
Instead of participating in a tournament, a noble may sponsor any noble who has a title lower than theirs (N) by spending 2 wealth to increase the total roll of N by 2 (i.e. S is increased by 2). A noble may not sponsor more than one noble per tournament, but a noble may gain sponsorship from various sponsors. Additionally, a noble may not sponsor themselves. A Noble may spend one favour to request sponsorship from any noble from whom they have gained a favour. If they do so, it is outrageous for the noble to refuse. If a sponsored noble wins the tournament (by coming in first, second, or third), the noble who sponsored them the most gains 1 knight. If more than one noble sponsored N in equal amounts, none of them gain any knights from this. All nobles who sponsor another noble gain 1 dignity per 2 wealth they spent for a max of 4 dignity.

A noble may not participate in a tournament they host, nor may they sponsor any of the participating nobles.
Once a noble enters a tournament, they may not leave it.

Add the following to the end of the rule “Knights”

A Noble without any Knights is considered defenseless.

Every noble has a non-negative integer statistic entitled “Queued Knights” which defaults to zero. A Noble may change their Queued Knights at any time. Queued Knights are not considered to be Knights.

Add a new dynastic rule called “Artisans” and give it the following text

Every noble has a non-negative integer statistic entitled “Artisans”, tracked in the GNDT and defaulting to 0. At any point, a Noble may spend 3 Wealth to gain an Artisans.

Every noble also has a non-negative integer statistics called “Great Works” and a non-negative integer statistic called “Progress”, both defaulting to 0.

Add the following to the end of list in “Acts of War”

A Noble may spend 1 Knight to reduce a Defenseless Enemy’s Artisans by 1
A Noble may spend 2 Knights to reduce a Defenseless Enemy’s Progress by up to (and including) 5.
A Noble may spend 5 Knights to reduce a Defenseless Enemy’s Great Work’s by 1

Add the following to the end of the list in “Taxes”

* Each Noble’s progress is increased by the number of Artisans they have. If their progress is greater than or equal to 5 * (G + 1) where G is their great works, their progress is reduced by 5 * (G + 1) and their great works are increased by one. This is repeated until their progress is less than 5 * (G + 1). (With G updating each time).
* Each Noble gains 2 * G Wealth where G is their number of Great Works.
* Each Noble loses 2 * Q Wealth and gains Q Knights where Q is their Queued Knights. If they have fewer than 2 * Q, they immediately buy as many knights as possible (at the price of 2 Wealth per Knight). Their Queued Knights are then set to 0.

Create a new wiki page entitled “Tournament”, and blank that page.

Enact a rule entitled “Tournament”:

Once per time advancement, any noble may start a tournament if one is not already in progress. In order to host a tournament, a noble must make a Story Post with “Tournament” included in the title, must update the “Tournament” wiki to reflect the new tournament, and must spend N*20 wealth, where N is any non-zero, non-negative, integer. Once a tournament has begun, any noble may decide to join the tournament by posting in the comments to the tournament page their intent to join and how many knights they are sending to the tournament (K), they must deduct K from their total number of knights, and they must add themselves to the proper location in the “Tournament” wiki along with the number of knights. The tournament automatically ends once time advances, and the noble who advances should reflect the tournament as “Closed”. At any time, any noble may resolve a tournament and then change the status of the tournament to be “Resolved”.

Resolving a tournament:
The noble who resolves the tournament rolls S = 1 DICEK for every noble who joined the tournament, where K is the total amount of knights pledged. The noble who gets the highest score S is awarded N*10 wealth and 5 dignity, the noble with the second highest score is awarded N*5 wealth and 3 dignity, and the player with the the third highest score is awarded N*2 wealth and 2 dignity. (The remaining wealth is used to pay the cost of the tournament) Additionally, any player attending the tournament gains 1 dignity. The player hosting the tournament gains N*5 dignity.

A noble may not participate in a tournament they host.

Amend the text of the Rule “Relinquishment” to the following:

A Noble may Relinquish any Title they hold by making it an Abeyant Title, and updating the gamestate accordingly. A Noble gains 6 Wealth upon Relinquishing a Dukedom, 5 Wealth upon Relinquishing an Earldom, and 4 Wealth upon Relinquishing a Barony.

Time Advances.

If there is not a subrule of “Obtainment” entitled “Relinquishment” create one. Replace the test of the subrule “Relinquishment” with:

A Noble may Relinquish any Title they hold by making it an Abeyant Title. A Noble gains 9 Wealth for Relinquishing a Dukedom, 6 Wealth for Relinquishing an Earldom, and 3 Wealth for Relinquishing a Barony. They must then transfer 1 wealth to any Noble which holds Lordship over that Title.

Enact a new subrule entitled of “Obtainment” entitled “Relinquishment”:

A Noble may Relinquish any Title they hold by making it an Abeyant Title. A Noble gains 12 Wealth for Relinquishing a Dukedom, 8 Wealth for Relinquishing an Earldom, and 4 Wealth for Relinquishing a Barony.
