Create a new dynastic rule, entitled “Buying Votes”, with the text
Players may buy additional rules on a proposal, according to the details given in this rule’s sub-rules, by making a comment to the proposal containing a vote icon and text explicitly invoking the rule under which the votes were bought. When votes have been so bought on a pending proposal, quorum shall be calculated by adding the number of votes so bought to the number of active Players, dividing by two, rounding down and adding one. No proposal shall be enacted if votes have been bought thereupon for 24 hours after its posting.
The subrules of this rule are always overridden by the text of this rule, that is, the restrictions and instructions given above shall apply whenever a player buys a vote according to one of this rule’s subrules.
As a sub-rule to “Buying votes”, add a subrule, entitled “Two For Votes [7 Points]”, with the text
Twice per proposal, a Player may buy an additional vote FOR the proposal.
As a sub-rule to “Buying votes”, add a subrule, entitled “Three Against Votes [5 Points]”, with the text
Thrice per proposal, a Player may buy an additional vote AGAINST the proposal.
As a sub-rule to “Buying votes”, add a subrule, entitled “Bought Veto [30 Points]”, with the text
As a daily action, a Player may buy veto for a proposal, with the same effect as if they were the leader.
Does this work yet?
Also, I need a better way to say ‘this rule’s subrules’, seeing as I seem to say it all the time.
Excalabur:
Jeez, that looks much longer in fully rendered form than it did in the raw HTML.
