Proposal: Death’s Domain

Timed out and failed, 2-4. Josh

Adminned at 09 Jan 2024 14:49:02 UTC

Add the following to the list of Locations in the rule Locations:

| The Throne of Death || Hourglass Effect: The Necromancer who is at this Location has achieved Victory; if multiple Necromancers are at this location then only the single Necromancer with the highest Mana amongst them has achieved Victory. ||  0 || None; no Location may share an Area with this Location

I don’t think there’s any way of getting here yet - no corpses and not attached to any Area - so we can figure out how to make this possible later.

I think someone could try to argue that Tower has the same Area as Throne of Death (i.e. no Area) and Travel there

Hm; I feel like we used to have a glossary thing that specified that null values were never the same. In any case, I’ve bolstered it.

Just realised that the extension of Locations’ life makes this proposal illegal: we still have “The Death Date of a rule may not be modified or removed by any Proposal after the rule has been added to the ruleset, except in the case where the rule itself is repealed”

Arg.

Okay, edited that out. I’ll make another proposal later figuring out what to do about that.

In its current form, either their is a scam to set your location there and the dynasty will end early or locations will be dying off in 3 days and this will do nothing. So better safe than sorry I think

It did originally extend the date of the rule. I intend to use my next free slot to find a way to do that

I don’t want to extend the date on locations. Feels against the spirit of the dynasty.

against because there’s only going to be 1 day left on Locations by the time this passes.

for Dark Arts feels like the core mechanics of the dynasty, so I feel like it’s reasonable to extend. As for the actual proposal, I’m generally a fan of “define an unachievable wincon early, then figure out how to reach it later”.

Note to admin: I would like to unidle.

I disagree about Dark Arts being the core mechanic. It’s the one that’s seen most action, sure, but that’s just because it was one of the first. Besides, with its death the Nomicnecron will finally have its first writings

against  in case it matters, which I doubt.
