Proposal: Development Hell or High Water

Reached quorum, enacted by Kevan.

Adminned at 18 Apr 2009 02:20:21 UTC

Enact a new Dynastic Rule, “Taking the Initiative”:-

As a daily Action, a Scripter whose Popularity is higher than that of all other Scripters may steal the Producer’s chair by posting a blog entry to that effect, and reducing their own Popularity by 1.

Upon doing so, that Scripter may consider themselves to be the Producer for the purpose of any Dynastic Rule (other than “Bonus Features”), for the next hour.

Higher than that of all others added together? Or individually?

And I don’t see that this automatically reverts Producer power to Devenger after that time period.

The proposal doesn’t take Devenger’s power away. Allows someone else to assume his power for one hour, but at no point does it say that Dev ceases to be Producer for that time.

against per Qwazzy’s first point.  COVAY.

On Qwazukee’s first point: the cumulative total of all other scripters, given Dev’s -10, is currently -8.5. The outcome of the arithmetic doesn’t change either way and is unlikely to do so any time soon.

for This could be amusing. And get the game moving. Because I’ve been too busy and distracted and busy to actually resolve anything.

Sorry, guys.

I hope Josh uses his power responsibly.
