The text of the hostile takeover rule regarding emigration reads:
Emigration - The native population gives up and many of the population emigrates to neighboring territories. The Territory loses DICEW population, where W is the native population amount. All adjacent Territories gain native population of DICEW / N rounded up, where N is the number of Territories adjacent to that Territory.
The prevailing interpretation up until now has been that DICEW is rolled once and then divided by N for the number gained by adjacent territories. Vote AGAINST this CfJ if you agree with this interpretation.
However, the other possibility is that DICEW is rolled twice, once for the population loss and once for the population gained in adjacent territories. Vote FOR this CfJ if you agree with this interpretation. If this CfJ passes, restore Purplebeard’s Hostile Takeover to the way it was before Excalabur corrected it. Furthermore, for each Hostile Takeover that has been processed, correct the handling of Emigration to follow this method.
