Proposal: A Trip Out

Passes 9-0. Enacted by Brendan.

Adminned at 15 Dec 2021 01:15:53 UTC

To “Road Map”, add:-

A Stop’s number is the number of its position in the numerically ordered list of Stops. A Stop is said to be “before” all other Stops with higher numbers, and “after” all other Stops with lower numbers.

In the same rule, replace “numerically before” with “before”.

Add a new rule, “Movement”:-

A Tripper is Waiting if there exists a Stop before their current Location (ignoring all Starting Points) occupied by another Tripper; otherwise they are Ready.

If a Tripper is Ready, then they may Drive by changing their Location to any Stop which is after their current Location.

Replace “Each Tripper has a Location, which is the Name of one of the Stops in that list” with:-

Each Tripper has a Location, which is the number and Name of one of the Stops in that list

Replace “may have a Type, which is flavor text” with “may have a Type”.

Proposing a movement system: you can only move if you’re at the back of the queue, then you have to wait for everyone else to pass you (so jumping far ahead may not be the best idea). Also unflavouring the Types so that rules can easily refer to them.

A Stop is said to be “before” all other Stops with higher numbers, and “ahead of” or “after” all other Stops with lower numbers.

Wouldn’t “ahead of” usually be a synonym for “before” rather than “after”?

I’d put that in because I found myself writing “change their Location to any Stop which is ahead of their current Location” later in the proposal, but you’re right, it can also read the other way in other contexts. Reworded to just use “after”.

> then they may Drive by change their Location

I think this is supposed to read “By changing their location”?
