Proposal: Do past mistakes cause actual changes in the gamestate, or was it all just an illusion?
Timed out 2-4. Failed by card.

I made a comic which illustrates the idea here: http://i.imgur.com/a3hRJS6.png
Add a section called “Continuum”. Within it, add:
Solely for the purpose of play during the current Dynasty, there are two possible Continuums.
-Sticky Continuum: Changes to the game in the past have their consequences apply in the present, even if the present later finds that such changes have been performed illegally. It is recommended to take measures that adjust the game from its former, found-to-be-incorrect state, to a correct one. Past illegal changes “stick”, and need to be changed via formal mechanisms in order to be corrected.
-Illusion Continuum: Changes to the game in the past don’t have their consequences apply in the present if such changes have been found to have been performed illegally. It is recommended to take measures to update the methods of visualization of the game to adjust it from their former, found-to-be-incorrect state, to a correct one, but the actual formal game behind it hasn’t actually changed due to those (presently, considered to be) illegal changes. Past illegal changes were just “illusions” or bogus, and have no effect in the present, even if considered to be legal in the past.
Managers may add to their comment which contains a valid vote the string “Sticky” or the string “Illusion”, and only one of the two. These are vote strings. If the majority of vote strings are “Sticky”, add to “Continuum”:
This Dynasty’s Continuum is a Sticky Continuum
If the majority of vote strings are “Illusion”, add to “Continuum”:
This Dynasty’s Continuum is an Illusion Continuum
In case of a tie between the vote string amounts, the Commissioner must choose one of the upper two options at a timely fashion, and that option’s ruletext will be added.
I think its very important to know what is actually “real” in the game.
