Proposal: Death is an illusion

Reaches quorum 14-5. Enacted. - lilomar

Adminned at 29 Jul 2010 12:34:24 UTC

Add the following text to the rule “Clones”, if it exists.

For purposes of the ruleset, the verbs “to die”, “to be executed” and “to be terminated” are synonyms.  The valid Clone-Numbers are hexadecimal numbers from 1 to F (i.e., sixteen values), plus zero and -1.  Due to an undocumented feature that must have been introduced by a dangerous subversive, if a Citizen’s Clone-Number is F and there occurs any action or event that would cause the Citizen’s Clone-Number to be incremented by 1, that Citizen’s Clone-Number instead becomes -1.

against This sounds dangerously subversive to me.

Overflow-Errors are fun, but could lead to a suicide massacre against

Although, at 7 and above, something should happen, as 6 is the number of clones that can reliably be created without genetic drift.

Resetting after 16 works well though, because by that time, you are going to want a template cleaning.

for any mechanic that uses hexadecimals is ok by me

Just realized there are 15, not 16, hex numbers between 1 and F.

There are 16 values if the Computer says there are 16 values. The only problem is figuring out what that 16’th value is, and where it goes.

This impudent attempt to modify Ultraviolet rule text is TREASON under Rule 2.2.1. Appropriate paperwork has been filed.
