BlogNomic: The First Dynasty of Desertfrog

Add a new dynastic rule, “Medal Shower”, with the following text:

During a Grand Party, the Holder of the Rubber Ducky may spend 100 Medals to achieve victory.

If a majority of EVCs on this proposal contain “Short Game”, replace 100 with 60 in that rule.

Create a dynastic rule “Party Tricks” with the following text:

Certain actions are Party Tricks. Party Tricks are always atomic. A Partygoer may only perform a Party Trick if they are Partying and they haven’t already performed it during the current Party or Grand Party.

As a Party Trick called Chugging, a Partygoer may remove two “Soda” from being held by themselves, and increase their energy by 1.

As a Party Trick called Feasting, a Partygoer may remove one each of “Soda”, “Meat”, “Chips” and “Brownies” from being held by four different Partying Partygoers including themselves, and increase the Party score of each of those Partygoers by four.

As a Party Trick called Balloon Popping, a Partygoer holding a Dart in the Garden may cease to hold that Dart to gain DICE3 minus one Party Score.

As a Party Trick called Cannonball, a Partygoer in the Garden may spend 2 Energy drop all their held objects (except for the Rubber Ducky, if they have it), change their location to the Pool, and gain one Party Score.

Repeal the rule “Energizing” and remove the last paragraph from the rule “Pot Luck”.

In the rule Party Time, change all instances of the text “48 hours” to “72 hours”.
In the rule Party Time, change the text “60 hours” to “72 hours”

Cue cheerful music

This week on Blognomic…

Another Grand Party has taken place, with Bucky coming away as the grand winner following a spectacular cookoff against… pretty much nobody. Trapdoorspyder, the host, was too busy to actually do anything, and by the time that Josh showed up with all of his ingredients Bucky was already halfway done with his dish and Josh figured it wasn’t worth it to make up lost ground.

In other news, Shrimp have been thrown, Energy Drinks have been chugged, and Habanero was discovered towards the end up the party, uh, exactly where they were last time? That’s right, they’ve been floating there in the pool with their increasingly soggy meatloaf every since the last party, playing “Here Comes the Sun” on their guitar because they’ve seen it happen 7 times out there now.

That’s all that’s happened this week, folks! This post was written by TDS, posted by TDS, and narrated by nobody. have a good week, folks!

In the rule “Fun and Games”, change

If an Activity is not Ongoing as defined by the Rules of the Game of that Activity, a Partying Partygoer may join

to

If an Activity is neither Ongoing nor Over as defined by the Rules of the Game of that Activity, a Partying Partygoer may join

and

If the Party ceases to be Ongoing before the Activity is Over, the Activity ends without a winner

to

If the Party or Grand Party ceases to be Ongoing before the Activity is Over, the Activity ends without a winner

If there is no ongoing Party or Grand Party, set all Party Scores to 0 and end all Activities that have not already been ended.  If there is an ongoing Party or Grand Party, end all Activities that were not started during the current Party or Grand Party and remove all Party Score gained from Activities that started during the last Grand Party but ended after the Grand Party did.

In the rule Fun and Games, change

A Game consists of a Name, Rules, a Location, a Cost and a Reward.

to

A Game consists of a Name, Rules, a Location, a Cost and a Reward, and optionally an Associated Object.

In the same rule, after

A Partygoer can only join an Activity if the Location of that Activity’s Game is the same as their own Location.

add

” When a Partygoer joins an Activity, they may begin holding the Activity’s Game’s Associated Object.”

Add an Associated Object column to the table that is the list of Games. Set the Associated Object of Darts to Dart, and of Cook Off to Meat. Other Games have no Associated Objects yet.

Add the following to the rule Local Objects:

As a communal action, once per Party or Grand Party, a Partygoer at the Barbecue may either give every Partygoer whose location is the Barbecue the object Meat, or may lose one Meat to give every Partygoer at the Barbecue 2 Party Points.

Add a new rule as a subrule to the rule Local Objects, called Grillin’:

Barbecue, Barbeque, BBQ, Barbie, Braai and Grill are all considered to be synonyms as per the rule Spelling and Formatting.

Add the following as the first step to both of the atomic actions in the Party Time rule and subrules of such:

- All Partying Partygoers gain 1 Medal.

If the majority of the FOR votes on this proposal contain the word “recursive”, then give 2 Medals to the players named Bucky and Habanero, and 1 Medal to the players named lendunistis, Josh, and Snail, and if it is no longer ongoing, also give 1 Medal to any Partygoers that were in the Grand Party started on the 26th of October

Add the following as the first step to both of the atomic actions in the Party Time rule and subrules of such:

- All Partying Partygoers gain 10 medals.

If the majority of the FOR votes on this proposal contain the word “recursive”, then give 20 medals to the players named Bucky and Habanero, and 10 Medals to the players named lendunistis and Snail.

I henceforth declare this activity to be a cookoff, and invite anybody who so pleases to join me for some delicious proposals meals!

The Grand Party of the week has been started!

I enjoyed the bash for those first 3 or 4 days, but now I’m going idle! Too much to do that keeps me from being fully active. See ya!

Add a subrule to the rule Carrying called “Energizing” and give it the following text:

As an atomic action called Chugging, a Partying Partygoer may, once per party, remove two “Soda” from being held by themselves, and increase their energy by 1.

In the rule “Party Time”, replace:

Any Partygoer who is sharing a Location with another Partygoer who is holding an Acoustic Guitar may not score Party score.

with

If a Partying Partygoer is holding an Acoustic Guitar, other Partygoers in the same Location may not start a new Activity.

Idle me please

Add a subrule to the rule Carrying called “Energizing” and give it the following text:

As an atomic action called Chugging, a Partying Partygoer may remove two “Soda” from being held by themselves, and increase their energy by 1.

Create a Game and add it to the list of Games in the rule “Fun and Games”.
Its Name shall be “Cook Off”.
Its rules shall be:

The Cook Off Activity is Ongoing between 12 hours after its start and 28 hours after its start, and Over after 28 hours after its start. A valid Response to a Cook Off Activity is a single link to a Proposal authored by the responding Member since the start of the Cook Off. The winner is the Member whose first valid Response links to the proposal with the most FOR votes from non-Members, with ties broken in favor of the earlier Response. If there are no valid Responses, there is no Winner.

Its Location shall be Barbecue.
Its Cost shall be 5.
Its Reward shall be “10 times the number of Members”.

[Begin Report]
At 3:17, the 23rd of October, an individual was seen to be wheeling an unusually large rubber ducky out of a backyard at which a party was taking place. Upon reaching a house two doors down from the location of the party, that same individual stopped in front of that house, and then walked up to the front door, and retrieved a package. They then went back down to the street, walked another house down, and wheeled the rubber ducky inside.
[End Report]

Police Chief’s notes: The individual was later found to be Madrid, and the package determined to contain 30 medals. The incredible fact that they were able to steal a ginormous, six foot tall, neon yellow rubber ducky from an active party in broad daylight is only explained by the fact that every people actually attending the party were distracted by several individuals leaping head first into the pool, apparently complete with several platters of food and one guitar. No explanation has been found for either of those two actions. Due to the minor consequences of this event and the fact that I really don’t want to know what’s going on here, I have decided not to investigate further.

Jumble becomes idle after 7 days of inactivity. No change to quorum.

In the rule Party Time and it’s subrules, replace the both instances of the text “If there is a tie, the winner is decided secretly randomly among all partygoers that tied for the highest Party Score.” with the following:

If there is a tie, the winner is decided secretly randomly among all non-Host partygoers that are tied for the highest Party Score and Partying.

In the rule Fun and Games, change the text ‘If an Activity is not Ongoing as defined by the Rules of the Game of that Activity, a Partygoer may join that Activity by commenting a “Join” Response to the activity post and spending an amount of Energy defined by the Cost of the Game of that Activity. A Partygoer can only join an Activity if the Location of that Activity’s Game is the same as their own Location.’ to the following:

If an Activity is not Ongoing as defined by the Rules of the Game of that Activity, a Partying Partygoer may join that Activity by commenting a “Join” Response to the activity post and spending an amount of Energy defined by the Cost of the Game of that Activity. A Partygoer can only join an Activity if the Location of that Activity’s Game is the same as their own Location.

Add the following sentence to the end of the second paragraph of rule Carrying:

If the rule “Party Time” or one of its subrules would transfer possession of the Rubber Ducky to a Partygoer who already holds four Objects, that Partygoer first drops their first-listed held Object to make room for the Rubber Ducky.

In the rule Carrying, change

any other Partygoer at the same Party or Grand Party

to

any other Partying Partygoer at the same Location

In the rule Pot Luck, change

start holding the Objects “Soda”, “Meat”, “Chips”, “Brownies”, or “Acoustic Guitar”.

to

start holding the Objects “Soda”, “Meat”, “Chips” or “Brownies”, which are categorized as Food, or “Acoustic Guitar” which is categorized as an Instrument.

Add a subrule to the rule Locations called “Local Objects” and give it the following text:

This rule only applies to Partying Partygoers except where it explicitly says otherwise.

A Partygoer who enters the Pool with a Food Object ceases to be holding that Object.

A Partygoer who enters the Pool while holding the Rubber Ducky chooses a random Partygoer in the Pool and, if they didn’t choose themselves, transfer the Rubber Ducky to that Partygoer.

The Bathroom has a Stash, a publicly tracked list of Objects. Partygoers alone in the Bathroom may transfer Objects they’re holding to the Stash or remove Objects from the Stash to start holding them. While the Rubber Ducky is in the Stash, the last Partygoer (whether Partying or not) to be Holder of the Rubber Ducky remains Holder of the Rubber Ducky. The Bathroom Stash empties after each Party is resolved.

A Partygoer who is in the Kitchen and not holding any Objects may start holding “Soda”.

[System] Group chat started

[Josh] Thanks everyone for coming!

[Tyguy6] Np!

[TDS] I was kinda hoping for some party games, but it was still fun!

[Habanero] I couldn’t believe it when Bucky just jumped in the pool like that!

[TDS] IKR? He didn’t even drop off his potluck stuff that he brought first!

[Habanero] Those meatballs looked NASTY.

[TDS] About that…

[Tyguy6] Uh…

[Bucky] ANYWAYS, that was a great party guys! Looking forward to the next one!

[TDS] Oh, hey Bucky! You got the rubber ducky for that crazy stunt in the pool BTW , since we didn’t get any party games going. I’ll wheel it by your house later along with the 10 medals.

[Bucky] Much appreciated!

[Tyguy6] Hey Josh, where were you for the whole party? You invited everyone over and then disappeared!

... Josh is typing ...

In the rule “The Grand Party”, change

If there is already an ongoing Party at the time the Grand Party would be started, the Host should resolve that Party before starting the Grand Party.

to

If there is already an ongoing Party or Grand Party at the time the Grand Party would be started, the Host shall resolve it before starting the Grand Party, even if the existing Party’s or Grand Party’s start was less than 48 hours previously.

Add the following text to the end of the rule “Fun and Games”, after the end of the table:

A new game’s Reward should generally be assigned so that the expected (average) value of the Party Score gained by each participant of an associated Activity played to completion is roughly equal to twice the energy it cost them.

Change the Reward for Darts to 18, and subtract 57 from the Party Score of every Partygoer who has won a game of Darts during the current Party or Grand Party.

Create a subrule of the rule “Party Time”, titled “Publicity” as follows:

Whenever a player starts a Party or Grand Party, they should make a story post announcement detailing that they have done so.

In the rule “24 Hour Party People”, change

Each Partygoer has a publicly tracked amount of points

to

Each Partygoer has a publicly tracked quantity of Medals

In the rule “Party Time”, change

decided secretly randomly among all partygoers that tied for the most points

to

decided secretly randomly among all partygoers that tied for the highest Party Score

and

If that Partygoer is the current Holder of the Rubber Ducky, they gain 15 points, otherwise possession of the Rubber Ducky is transferred to them and they gain 10 points.

to

If that Partygoer is the current Holder of the Rubber Ducky, they gain 15 Medals, otherwise possession of the Rubber Ducky is transferred to them and they gain 10 Medals.

In the rule “The Grand Party”, change “gains 5 points” to “gains 5 Medals” and “gains 30 points” to “gains 30 Medals”.
In the rule “The Grand Party” change

decided secretly randomly among all partygoers that tied for the most points

to

decided secretly randomly among all partygoers that tied for the highest Party Score

Update the dynasty’s gamestate tracking page to reflect that Points have become Medals.

In the rule “Fun and Games”, change the Reward of the Game Pogs to 30.

In the rule “Fun and Games”, change “When this Activity is Over, every Member of this Activity must spend the amount of Energy they bet.” to:

When this Activity is Over, every Member of it loses the amount of Energy they bet. If this would reduce a Member’s Energy to below 0, it is instead set to 0. If this would reduce the Energy of the Winner of this Activity to below 0, the Activity ends with no Winner and their Energy is set to 0.

In the rule “Carrying” change the text “Other Objects have one-word names that are flavor text, and that are not necessarily unique.” to

Objects have one- or two-word names that are flavor text and are not necessarily unique.

Add the following item as the first step in the list following “the Host should resolve that party as soon as possible as long as they have not already done so, using the following atomic action:” in the rule “Party Time”:
“- Close the Pool”.

If the Host’s EVC on this proposal contains the text “Grand Swim”, add the same item as the first step in the corresponding list in the rule “The Grand Party”.

Add a new subrule to the rule “Party Time”. Call it Closing the Pool and give it the following text:

The effects of Closing the Pool are as follows: If no Partygoer in the Pool has any Energy, each Partygoer in the Pool (if any) gains 1 Party Score. Otherwise, the one Closing the Pool shall select a random Energy unit held by a Partygoer in the Pool and award the Partygoer with that Energy unit an amount of Party Score equal to the number of Partygoers in the Pool. After these changes in Party Score, everyone in the Pool moves to the Garden.

Add to “Exhaustion”:

A Partygoer can Dance by spending 1 Energy. Upon doing so, if there is a Partygoer at their Location holding an Acoustic Guitar, then this increases their Points by 3.

Set the “Dynastic Distance” Special Case rule to Inactive.

If the ruleset contains the text

There exists a single Rubber Ducky, which may either be in the possession of the Host, or in the possession of any single Partygoer, and defaults to being in possession of the Host.

change it to

There exists a single Rubber Ducky, which is in the possession of a single Partygoer, defaulting to the Host.

and add the following text to the end of the rule thus changed:

While the Host is the Holder of the Rubber Ducky during a Grand Party, the Host should make reasonable attempts to allow or cause other Partygoers to possess the Rubber Ducky instead.

Wherever the phrase “The Partygoer with the highest Party score wins” appears in the Dynastic Rules, replace it with “The Partygoer with the highest Party score, excluding the Host, wins”

In the rule “Fun and Games”, format the list of games as a table, with a header row labeling the columns as containing “Name”, “Rules”, “Location”, “Cost”, and “Reward” in that order.

Add the following to the list of games in the rule “Fun and Games”:

Name: Darts
Rules: When this activity has 3 members, it is ongoing and no new Members may join this Activity. Within 24 hours of the Activity becoming ongoing, each member of this Activity must post a response to the activity post, where [Response] is the word “Throw” followed by an integer between 1 and 10, inclusive (a throw response). Then within 12 hours of all 3 throw responses being received, one member must post a Response to this Activity where [Response] is the word “Bullseye”, followed by a randomly chosen number between 1 and 10, inclusive (a bullseye response). If the bullseye response does not contain the same number as either throw response, a new bullseye response must be made, repeating until it matches any throw response. When the bullseye response has the same number as any throw response, the Activity is over and the Member who posted the matching throw response is the Winner of this Activity. If any member fails to post a throw response, if all members fail to post a bullseye response, or if more than one member posts the same throw response, then this Activity is over and there is no Winner of this Activity.
Location: Kitchen
Cost: 3
Reward: 75

Add the following to the end of the rule “Fun and Games”:

Name: Pogs
Rules: When this Activity has 4 Members, it is Ongoing. Each Member of this Activity may choose to bet any amount of Energy that is equal to or lower than their current amount of Energy. Within 24 hours of the Activity becoming Ongoing, they must post a Response to the Activity post, where [Response] is a SHA-1 hash whose contents start with the amount of Energy spent as a bet. After this Response has been posted, the bet cannot be changed. Every hash must include a salt which consists of the word ‘salt:’ followed by any number of characters; all text including and following the word ‘salt’ is considered to have no effect on the contents of the hash. When all Members of this Activity have posted a Response, they must then post a Response within 24 hours where [Response] is the contents of the hash they responded with previously to this Activity post. When all Members of this Activity have posted said Response, the Activity is Over. When the Activity is Over, the Member of this Activity that bet the highest amount of Energy in this Activity is the Winner of this Activity. When this Activity is Over, every Member of this Activity must spend the amount of Energy they bet. When 2 or more Members are tied for the highest bet, this Activity has no Winner. When a Member fails to respond with their hash or the contents of their hash within the allotted time, then their bet is considered to be 0 and they are considered to have posted a Response.
Location: Garden
Cost: 1
Reward: 100

In the rule “Party Time”, directly after “A Partygoer that joins or is the Captain of an Activity is considered to be a Member of that Activity.”, add:

While an Activity is Open, all of its Members must abide by the Rules of its Game. When an Activity is Ongoing or Over, only Responses in the format “Move: [Response]” can be Responded with to it.

In the rule “Fun and Games”, replace

Only the Captain of an Activity may end that Activity, and only when the Activity is Over as defined by the Rules of the Game of the Activity.

with

The Captain of an Activity may end that Activity, but only when the Activity is Over as defined by the Rules of the Game of the Activity. The Host may end the Activity under the same circumstances, and should do so before resolving the party. If the Party ceases to be Ongoing before the Activity is Over, the Activity ends without a winner. An activity cannot end except by one of the causes from this paragraph or by CfJ.

Create a new rule called Party Royale:

If the amount of Unidle Players is above 5, then the rest of this rule does nothing.

Partygoers are Conscious or Unconscious, defaulting to Conscious. Unconscious Partygoers cannot take dynastic actions. At the first moment that only exactly one Partygoer is Conscious, that Partygoer has achieved victory.

Once a Partygoer becomes Unconscious, they cannot become Conscious again. If nobody has done so in the last 48 hours, a Partygoer can make a random Conscious Partygoer Unconscious. Partygoers are encouraged to make Proposals that intend to make some set of Partygoers Unconscious.

Add the text “Each Partygoer has a set amount of Energy, which is a non-negative integer value that defaults to 10.” to the beginning of the rule Rubber Ducky Time and repeal the rule Exhaustion.

Change the title of the rule Rubber Ducky Time to 24 Hour Party People.

Make the rules The Grand Party, A Slight Delay and Fun and Games sub-rules of the rule Party Time.

Move the last paragraph of the rule 24 Hour Party People to become the second paragraph of the rule Carrying, and then remove the sentence “The current Holder of the Rubber Ducky is publicly tracked.” from it.

Make the rule Pot Luck a subrule of the rule Carrying.

In the definition of “Hiatus” in the “Other” section of the appendix, change

If BlogNomic is on Hiatus, Dynastic Actions may not be taken (except where the rule defining the action explicitly requires it to be taken during Hiatus)

to

If BlogNomic is on Hiatus, Dynastic Actions may not be taken (except where the rule defining the action explicitly requires it to be taken during Hiatus, or the action is carried out entirely by executing actions defined in the core rules)

Create a new rule called “The Golden Party Crown of Destiny” as a subrule to “Carrying”, with:

There exists exactly one or zero of the Golden Party Crown of Destiny, which is an Object. This Object cannot be removed from a Partygoer that is holding it.

As a subrule to that, create a new rule called “Golden Scions of Destiny” with:

Partygoers can be Golden Scions of Destiny and are by default not - this is privately tracked by the Host. If any Golden Scions of Destiny exist and any have Points and any are holding 3 or less Objects, the Host can and shall immediately after the next resolution of a Grand Party, perform the following Atomic Action:
- Randomly select one of the Golden Scions of Destiny which are holding 3 or less Objects.
- Create a Golden Party Crown of Destiny, held by that randomly selected Golden Scion of Destiny
- Set the points of all other Golden Scions of Destiny (if any exist) to 0.
- Make a blog post announcing that a Partygoer now has the Golden Party Crown of Destiny.
- Repeal this subrule of “Golden Scions of Destiny”.

If no Golden Scions of Destiny exist, the Host can and shall repeal the rule “The Golden Party Crown of Destiny” and all of its subrules.

Make all Partygoers who have privately communicated to the Host “IM A GOLDEN SCION” while this Proposal was Pending, into Golden Scions of Destiny.

In the rule Locations, change “Each Partygoer has a Location” to “Each Partygoer has a publicly tracked Location”

Create a new rule called “Idleflip”:

Unidle Partygoers are publicly tracked. Unidle Partygoers that are Admins are publicly tracked (other, redundant methods of tracking this data are not necessary, but are encouraged to be up to date as well).

When a Partygoer goes from Idle to Unidle, or Unidle to Idle, that Partygoer has Idleflipped. A Partygoer can only Idleflip once every four days (96 hours).

Any Idle or Unidle Partygoer can Idleflip themselves by making a blog post that is clearly and unambiguously to this effect.

In the rule “Carrying”, add the following to the end of the first paragraph:

The Objects held by each Partygoer are publicly tracked.

If the phrase “publicly tracked Party score” is in the Ruleset, then in the rule “Pot Luck”, change

As an atomic action, a Partygoer may remove one each of “Soda”, “Meat”, “Chips” and “Brownies” from being held by four different Partygoers including themselves at the same Party.

to

As an atomic action called Feasting, a Partygoer may remove one each of “Soda”, “Meat”, “Chips” and “Brownies” from being held by four different Partygoers including themselves at the same Party, and increase the Party score of each of those Partygoers by four.

Create a new dynastic rule named “Exhaustion” with the following body:

Each Partygoer has a set amount of Energy, which is a non-negative integer value that defaults to 10.

If the rule “Locations” exists, append the following to the end of it:

At any time, a Partygoer may spend 1 Energy to change their Location.

If Proposal: What Happens at the Party… was enacted, change “After a Party or Grand Party is resolved, all Partygoers have their Party score set to 0.” to:

After a Party or Grand Party is resolved, all Partygoers have their Party score set to 0 and their Energy set to 10.

In the rule “Party Time”, directly after “and the Holder of the Rubber Ducky (if there is one) is automatically assumed to be in any ongoing parties.”, add:

A Partygoer who is in the current Party or Grand Party may be said to be Partying as long as that Party or Grand Party is ongoing.

Create a new dynastic rule named “Fun and Games” with the following body:

Activities are a type of Event.

An Activity has a Game associated with it.

Any Partygoer who is Partying can start an Activity by spending the amount of Energy specified in the Cost of the Game of the Activity and making a post which defines the Game of the Activity. The post’s title must include the tag [Activity]. A Partygoer can only start an Activity if the Location of that Activity’s Game is the same as their Location.

Responses to the Activity can either be “Join” or “Move: [Response]”, where [Response] is a value defined by the rules of the Game of the Activity.

If an Activity is not Ongoing as defined by the Rules of the Game of that Activity, a Partygoer may join that Activity by commenting a “Join” Response to the activity post and spending an amount of Energy defined by the Cost of the Game of that Activity. A Partygoer can only join an Activity if the Location of that Activity’s Game is the same as their own Location.

A Partygoer that starts an Activity is considered to be the Captain of that Activity. A Partygoer that joins or is the Captain of an Activity is considered to be a Member of that Activity.

Only the Captain of an Activity may end that Activity, and only when the Activity is Over as defined by the Rules of the Game of the Activity.

When an Activity is ended, the Party Score of the Winner of the Activity (as defined by the Rules of the Game of the Activity) is increased by the amount defined by the Reward of the Game of the Activity.

A Game consists of a Name, Rules, a Location, a Cost and a Reward. The following is a list of Games:

Snail is to be Mentored by Josh until this dynasty ends and it is past the date of November 9th, 2022.

If they exist in the ruleset, remove the bullet points stating “All Partygoer’s Party Points are set to 0” from the rules “Party Time” and “Grand Party”. Additionally, remove the phrase “for the current Party” from “The Partygoer with the highest Party score for the current Party wins the party.” and the phrase “for the current Grand Party” from “The Partygoer with the highest Party score for the current Grand Party wins the Grand Party.”
Throughout the ruleset, replace “Party Points” with “Party score”.

Append the following to the end of the first paragraph in the rule “Rubber Ducky Time”, if it exists:

Additionally, every Partygoer has a publicly tracked Party score, which is an integer value defaulting to 0. After a Party or Grand Party is resolved, all Partygoers have their Party score set to 0.

If the rule “The Grand Party” exists, insert the following after its first sentence:

If there is already an ongoing Party at the time the Grand Party would be started, the Host should resolve that Party before starting the Grand Party.

In Rule 4.4.6 “Names”, after the sentence that begins “When changing their name or joining the game”, add the further sentence:

Name changes by proposal may additionally cause a name to have internal spaces.

may as well do this since a new dynasty started, unidle me please

In the rule Victory and Ascension, remove the text “either Pass the Mantle (by making a post naming a Partygoer who was not the last dynasty’s Host, in which case the passing Partygoer ceases to be the Host and the Partygoer so named becomes the Host) or”. In the same rule, in “If the game is in an Interregnum then the new Host must”, change the ‘must’ to a ‘may’.

In the rule Malign Emperors [Inactive] [Rare], change the first instance of the words ‘The Host’ to the following: “If the Special Case rule Mantle Passing is active, and the game is in Interregnum, then the Host of the recently-ended Dynasty”; and from the same rule, remove “during an Interregnum, as per the rule Victory and Ascension”.

Replace the rule Mantle Limitations [Active] with the following rule, called Mantle Passing [Rare][Inactive]:

During Interregnum, before posting an Ascension Address, the new Host may make a blog post naming a single other Partygoer who was not the Host of the most recently concluded dynasty. The named Partygoer then becomes to the Host and the poster ceases to be the Host; this is referred to as Passing the Mantle.

Repeal the rule Alliances.

Add a new dynastic rule, called Locations:

Each Partygoer has a Location, which may be Pool, Garden, Barbecue, Kitchen or Toilet, and which defaults to Garden. A Partygoer’s Location has no effect unless a Party or Grand Party is currently taking place.

If there is a rule called Pot Luck, change ‘“Soda”, “Meat”, “Chips” or “Brownies”’ to

Soda”, “Meat”, “Chips”, “Brownies”, or “Acoustic Guitar”

If there is a rule called Party Time, add the following to the end of it:

Any Partygoer who is sharing a Location with another Partygoer who is holding an Acoustic Guitar may not score Party Points.

Change the display name of the player known as “Cuddlebeam” to “Madrid”

I wish to become a player. Hi hello

Add a new Dynastic Rule to the Ruleset. Call it “Carrying” and give it the following text:

A Partygoer may hold up to four Objects at a time, defaulting to nothing. If a Partygoer holds four Objects, any attempt to make them hold more will fail. The Rubber Ducky is an Object held by whoever possesses it. Other Objects have one-word names that are flavor text, and that are not necessarily unique.

While not at a Party or Grand Party, a Partygoer may drop any Objects they’re holding other than the Rubber Ducky.

While a Partygoer at a Party or Grand Party is holding more than two Objects, any other Partygoer at the same Party or Grand Party who is holding one or fewer Objects may steal one of their Objects.

Add a new Dynastic Rule to the Ruleset. Call it “Pot Luck” and give it the following text:

While not at a Party or Grand Party, a Partygoer may start holding the Objects “Soda”, “Meat”, “Chips” or “Brownies”.

As an atomic action, a Partygoer may remove one each of “Soda”, “Meat”, “Chips” and “Brownies” from being held by four different Partygoers including themselves at the same Party.

Change the display name of the player known as “Jumble” to “Mystic Sailboat”

I finally have real life settled again and would like to be unidled please thanks.

Requesting to be unidled

Change the display name of the player known as “SupernovaStarbright” to “Snisbo”

Add to the rule “Rubber Ducky Time”, if it exists:

During any Party or Grand Party, any Partygoer with a Party Score for that Party may subtract 20 from their Party Score, then set themselves as the Holder of the Rubber Ducky.

Add the following rule to the ruleset, known as “Party Time”:

At any point as a daily action, as long as there is not an ongoing Party or Grand Party and it is neither at least 60 hours prior to Wednesday or Wednesday itself, a player may begin a Party. If there is an ongoing Party, that fact is publicly tracked, along with when it was started and all Partygoers that have joined it.. Parties may consist of any number of partygoers. A Partygoer may join the current party at any time, and the Holder of the Rubber Ducky (if there is one) is automatically assumed to be in any ongoing parties.

If it has been over 48 hours since the current Party was started, partygoers can no longer join the current Party and the Host should resolve that party as soon as possible as long as they have not already done so, using the following atomic action:
- The Partygoer with the highest Party score for the current Party wins the party. If there is a tie, the winner is decided secretly randomly among all partygoers that tied for the most points.
- If that Partygoer is the current Holder of the Rubber Ducky, they gain 15 points, otherwise possession of the Rubber Ducky is transferred to them and they gain 10 points.
- All Partygoer’s Party Points are set to 0
- The current Party ceases to be ongoing, and may not become ongoing again.
- The Host publishes a story post summarizing the events of that party and who won that party.

Add the following rule to the ruleset, called “The Grand Party”:

Once each week, on the Wednesday or as soon as possible thereafter of that week, the Host shall start a Grand Party. If there is an ongoing Grand Party, that fact is publicly tracked, along with when it was started and all Partygoers who have joined the current Grand Party. Partygoers may join the Grand Party at any time.

If it has been 48 hours since the current Grand Party was started, then Partygoers may no longer join the current Grand Party, and the Host should resolve it at their earliest convenience as long as they have not already done so, using the following atomic action:
- The current Holder of the Rubber Ducky gains 5 points, and then possession of the Rubber Ducky is Transferred to the Host.
- The Partygoer with the highest Party score for the current Grand Party wins the Grand Party. If there is a tie, the winner is decided secretly randomly among all Partygoers that tied for the most points.
- That Partygoer gains 30 points and possession of the Rubber Ducky.
- All Partygoer’s Party Points are set to 0.
- The current Party ceases to be ongoing, and may not become ongoing again.
- The Host publishes a story post summarizing the events of that Grand Party, and the Partygoer that won it.

Add the following rule to the ruleset, known as “A Slight Delay”:

No Parties or Grand Parties may be started. If the current date is on or after October 18, any player may repeal this rule.

Add a new rule to the ruleset, titled “Rubber Ducky Time”:

Each Partygoer has a publicly tracked amount of points, which is an integer value that defaults to 0.

There exists a single Rubber Ducky, which may either be in the possession of the Host, or in the possession of any single Partygoer, and defaults to being in possession of the Host. If the Rubber Ducky is held by a Partygoer, that Partygoer is known as the Holder of the Rubber Ducky. The current Holder of the Rubber Ducky is publicly tracked..

Repeal all Dynastic Rules
Set the Special Case rule Bounties to active.
Set the Synonym for the Emperor to “Host”.
Set the Synonym for Player to “Partygoer”.
Set the gamestate tracking page to “Party Central”
Close all bounties.

Unidle me for the new dynasty, please!

As per the rule “Chop”, I have achieved victory.

Per the rule “Chop”, I hereby announce that Trapdoorspyder has won the die roll and the dynasty.

Repeal the “Malign Emperors”, “Alliances” and “Bounties” special case rules.

If Proposal: Crust was not enacted then this proposal has no effect.

Add a new rule to the ruleset, called Chop:

At any time, provided that it has not been carried out previously in this dynasty, any Baron may carry out the Chop action.

A Chop action is an atomic action with the following steps:
* Roll DICE3 in the dice roller. If the result is a 1, the Baron called Bucky has achieved Victory. If the result is a 2, the Baron called Habanero has achieved Victory. If the result is a 3, the Baron called Trapdoorspyder has achieved Victory.
* Make a story post announcing the winner as determined in the previous step of this action.

Add the following to the end of the rule Mantle Limitations [Active]:

This limitation does not apply to proposals that would explicitly award Victory.

Add the following text as a new paragraph at the end of the Dynastic rule “Society”:

As a Labour Action, a Baron may Indoctrinate. He chooses a Migrant who is in one of his Infrastructures and who is either Independent or in his Levy, and sets that Migrant’s Allegiance to himself.

In the rule “Engines”, change

There exist two types of Resources categorized as Engines: Catapults and Rams. Those that are in a Keep can be Activated under other rules.

to:

There exist two types of Resources that are categorized as Engines: Catapults and Rams. Iron (bar)s are also considered Engines. Engines that are in a Keep can be Activated under other rules.

and

A Catapult must be crewed by exactly two Migrants

to:

A Catapult must be crewed by at least two Migrants

and add the following to the end of the rule:

An Iron (bar) is crewed by exactly one Migrant. When Activated, it reduces the Hit Points of the Infrastructure in the next slot by one.

I unidle; quorum is unchanged.

Raven1207 appears to have overlooked that a Baron may only use the Immigration Station with no Migrant workers, and has done Exploitation with no such worker available. This is less of an issue than the headaches that an attempted rollback would cause, and also less of an advantage than Raven1207 would have gotten from recruiting Migrants the first time they took the labour action to increase productivity of future activations. Therefore,

Uphold all Labouring and Supervising that Raven1207 did on or before October 1, 2022.

Replace the content of the rule “Sieging” with:

As a Labour Action, a Baron may Battle. To Battle, a Baron chooses a Besieged Keep. If the Baron is Hostile to that Keep, he may Activate any subset of the Engines in that Keep using Migrants in his Levy in the same location as those Engines. If the Baron is not Hostile to that keep, he also chooses a Slot in that Keep where he has a Levy member and Skirmishes there. If the total Power of the Baron’s Levy in that slot combined with (if it’s a different Levy) the Levy of the Keep’s owner in that Slot (collectively, the Skirmishers for that Battle) is greater than the total Resilience of the hostile Migrants there, then any of those Hostile Migrants whose Sneakiness is less than the total Smarts of the Skirmishers are expelled to the Inner Slums.

Add a new subrule to “Sieging” titled “Humanity’s Conquest”:

The humans are getting quite tired of our underground settlement; they grow restless with no monsters on the surface to satiate their need for bloodshed. Migrants in a Human King’s Levy are always considered to be participating in a Siege against monster-kind as a whole.

If the date is on or after October 8, 2022, then as a Daily Communal Action any Baron may Take Note of the Invaders by performing the following atomic action:
*Add a Migrant (human) to the Exterior of a random Keep owned by a Baron, with allegiance to a random Human King At War with that Baron, and optionally any name.
*Repeat the previous step a number of times equal to the number of full 24 hour periods that have passed since the start of October 8, 2022.

Any Baron may Intensify Sieges on behalf of a Human King so long as it would be legal for that Human King to do so (the Intensify action is carried out in the same way and under the same conditions for a Human King as it would be for a Baron, and the time a Human King last Intensified their Sieges is also publicly tracked and defaults to September 20, 0:00).

Add a new subrule to “Keeps” titled “In Ruins”:

A Baron’s Keep is considered Breached if it has no Defensive Infrastructures with greater than 0 hit points and there is at least one Migrant Hostile to that Baron in their Keep’s Exterior. Additionally, a Baron’s Keep is considered Breached if the time they last unidled is on or after October 8, 2022.

A Baron with a Breached Keep cannot take any dynastic actions not specified in this rule and cannot achieve victory by means of the rule “Influence”. A Baron with a Breached Keep can, however, Take Matters into their Own Hands as a Daily Action by removing any one Migrant in a Human King’s Levy and in the Exterior of a Keep from the game.

If one or fewer Barons have a non-Breached Keep, then the last Baron to have a non-Breached Keep has achieved victory. If multiple Barons are in a tie for this position (for example by the last two standing Keeps becoming Breached in the same Intensify action), then the victor is determined publicly randomly.

Add a new Infrastructure to the list in “Infrastructure”:
| Makeshift Wall || Wood (chopped) x 16, Iron (plate) x 2 || [Defensive] || 80 || 0
In every Baron’s Keep, add an instance of the Infrastructure Makeshift Wall to the first slot it can legally go in, if one exists.
Reduce the Iron (plate) cost of the Infrastructure Wall from 20 to 12.

In “Sieging”, replace

*Each non-Equipped Migrant that is part of their Levy and participating in a Siege reduces the Hit Points of the outermost Defensive structure of the Keep they are Besieging by 10.
*Each Equipped Migrant that is part of their Levy and participating in a Siege reduces the Hit Points of the outermost Defensive of the Keep they are Besieging structure by 20.

with

*Each non-Equipped Migrant that is part of their Levy and participating in a Siege reduces the Hit Points of the outermost Defensive Infrastructure with more than 0 hit points of the Keep they are Besieging by 10.
*Each Equipped Migrant that is part of their Levy and participating in a Siege reduces the Hit Points of the outermost Defensive Infrastructure with more than 0 hit points of the Keep they are Besieging by 20.

If the player named Bucky voted against this proposal, it has no effect.
If https://blognomic.com/archive/there_is_no_hope_left passed, this proposal has no effect.
Create a new rule with the following name: Achieving Victory. It’s text is to be as follows:

At any time, a Baron may do the following atomic action called “Flipping the Coin” as long as it has not already been done so:
*Rolling DICE2 in the Dice Roller
If the atomic action Flipping the Coin as been done, it’s result is publicly tracked.
If the result of Flipping the Coin is 1, the player named Bucky has achieved victory.
If the result of Flipping the Coin is 2, the player named Trapdoorspyder has achieved victory.

Repeal all Dynastic Rules.
