Proposal: Cryptoimperialism

At 2-4, has fewer than a Quorum of Emperors not voting AGAINST. Failed by Brendan.

Create a new dynastic rule entitled “Treaty of Exclusive Expulsion” as follows:

Any Emperor who is Signatory to this Treaty may, as a Dynastic action, delete their name from the list of Signatories to this Treaty and from the lists of Signatories of any number of other Treaties at any time; by doing so, that Emperor ceases to be Signatory to this Treaty and to those other Treaties. If an Emperor becomes Signatory to this Treaty by means of a Dynastic action, then that Emperor immediately ceases to be Signatory to this Treaty, and in between becoming Signatory to this Treaty and ceasing to be Signatory to this Treaty, that Emperor may take no game actions, Dynastic or otherwise.

So Brendan’s plan is to make it where it can be possible to remove our names which means he could remove his name from every treaty except for the Goal one and then achieve victory.

You do realize that after the proposal passes(assuming this even gets votes, that it becomes a race to whoever edits it first.

Raven, there are two parts to the victory condition in Versailles—one says that you must be only signatory to a single treaty, yes, but the other says that you must be the only signatory to Versailles, as well. As far as I myself understand it, this proposal should not kick off a race to victory upon enactment.

Is “If an Emperor becomes Signatory to this Treaty by means of a Dynastic action” supposed to include “When a Proposal creates or modifies a Treaty, every Emperor that voted FOR it becomes a Signatory to that Treaty”?

No, Bucky, it’s just meant to exclude the “make a blog post to sign treaties” mechanism, or any other Treaty-based power that would let people sign onto things after the fact. Proposals that modify Treaties are pretty uncommon and time-limited—I just didn’t want to open the gate to spamming join/leave/join/leave/etc.

... Player Bucky and Emperor Raven, that is.

That still would cause chaos by that logic. It basically becomes survivor of that treaty where everyone tries to find away to eliminate each other off the signature.

I declare offense at Emperor Brendan’s failure to refer to me by my proper title.
