How would these differ from the existing Factors?

Mechanically Scores double at the start of each week in a way that Factors don’t, but thematically, how is my Body Score different from my Health Factor?

Thematically? The Enneagram is about inner strengths or weaknesses. Physical health is a temporary measure of fitness, while the Body Center is more like an instinctual, “gut” intelligence, that directs how/when you act in situations. Anger, for instance, is a (negative) Body-centric response. Your Body Center being healthy might also affect your actual health, but they aren’t synonymous.

How is anger or sadness negative? You can’t be happy every waking moment of your life, that’s unhealthy and probably impossible.

My guess is that being angry or sad involves you feeling bad about something, in contrast to being happy or something about something which means you feel good about something.

I see anger as contentious in nature, while the better response to interpersonal problems could be determined words or action, coupled with acceptance of others’ separate wills.

Sadness is normal, I can see that as appropriate.

I believe the negative triad to be anger, fear, anxiety, but I’m not sure on the details of the differences between fear and anxiety without the “other” Enneagram book I had.

Wow, how did that last paragraph I wrote become so convoluted? Lol!

(In the proposal.)

I think I get it as a model, but if the game mechanic this is moving towards would be “being a Challenger gives you a higher Body Score, and having a higher Body Score makes you better at gaining Health when you Jog” it feels like a redundant extra middle step.

Factors introduced a high number of numerical values. I’m not sure what health does for us, yet, but the MHB system is about total self, has complexity and flavour, and Maturity can be a victory condition.

Redundancy is often good in the design living systems. I’m not sure what it will do in a dynasty.

I THIRST FOR RULE ENTROPY

(that said, I actually don’t get this rule all that much but I guess I’ll get it eventually lol)

I am thoroughly confused by the tangle of proposals pending at the moment… It might be easier to just get them all on the ruleset and then start pruning them back.

In any case, this one has timed out, so my vote doesn’t make any difference.

Votes are tallied for the moment when the proposal is processed, not at the point when it passed 48 hours. (I’d clear the queue but I’m only on a phone at the moment.)

I meant that the proposal was more than 48 hours old, so the threshold was lower and it would have passed even without my vote. Isn’t that the case?

If you vote FOR it enacts 3-1, if you vote AGAINST it fails 2-2.

And if I didn’t vote at all, it would still have enacted, 2-1. But it’s nice to know that I could have doomed it if I wanted to, hehe.
