Proposal: [Appendix] consolidation

Self-killed. Failed by Kevan.

In Keywords repeal the definitions for “Core Proposal”, “Daily Communal Action” and “Weekly Communal Action”

Alphabetically insert the following definition into the Keywords rule

;Communal Action
:An action that can only be performed by one Adveurer within a specified time period. Most often seen conjoined with either the Weekly or Daily keyword.

I don’t think that the phrase Core Proposal needs to be defined in the appendix as that phrase has always been used outside of proposal writing. if it were really necessary they could define it within the proposal/rule.

I feel that we could have some more fun with differently defined communal actions while also removing a net total of 1 entry to the appendix list.

I don’t like the “conjoined” wording but oh well. “Weekly” and “Daily” aren’t explicitly defined as keywords yet either.  imperial

There could be value in collapsing the separate definitions into one “Communal Action” definition, thus allowing one to specify a different time period in a dynastic proposal without having to define “Communal Action” anew.

However, I think such a definition ought to include the current “Daily” and “Weekly” definitions as examples (“unless otherwise defined”), not only as popular choices to fall back on – with inbuilt protections against actions undertaken in quick succession – but as useful templates on which to pattern alternatives.
