As language develops, Elias IX puts a hindrance on communication for all time.

Add a new Local Rule entitled “The Game of Four (-12000/12/31)” with the following text:

All words in all Travellers’ proposals, may not contain more than four letters.  All numerals whose absolute value is less than 100 shall be typed out. (Example: 2 shall be “two”, 4 shall be “four”, 15 could be “ten and five”, but -65000000 may remain the same.) 

The only exception to this rule are in the following:
*the text of any proposal that only edits the rule entitled “The Rule Of Many A Word That Is In Code”.

Any Proposal that does not follow this rule is considered void.

 

Hix? Some help?

You meant for this not to restrict Travellers before -12000/12/31, right?  In that case, you’ll have to get rid of “Any Proposal that does not follow this rule is considered void.” (or stick the word “Traveller” in an appropriate place)
