Proposal: aixing the captaincy

Timed out and failed, 8-1. Josh

Adminned at 28 Feb 2006 12:45:56 UTC

Add a new motley combination to the list in rule 2.8.1

Captaincy: Swashbuckler with this motley is known as “Captain” or “the Captain.”  This definition supercedes all definitions of these terms outside of laws 1.8 and 1.9 and all references to “Captain” or “the Captain” in the ruleset besides those in laws 1.8 and 1.9 refer to this motley.  There may be only one Captaincy in existance at any time.  If any action results in the existance of more than one Captaincy, that action is invalid.  Captaincy may not be thrown overboard by the Captain or removed by any means other than specifically mentioned in rule 2.8 or the rule entitled “Mutiny”.

Change the second to last paragraph of the rule entitled “Mutiny” to read as follows:

If the Supporting side wins, the mutiny is carried out: the Captain loses his Captaincy andthe Swashbuckler who initiated the Mutiny receives a Captaincy.

If this proposal passes, destroy all existing Captaincies and give one Captaincy to Elias IX.

imperial I change my name to “Swashbuckler with this motley”, etc.

And arr, this modern trend for abstract Motley be getting a bit peculiar. This could just be “Captain’s Hat”.

against The only thing this proposal has hany chance to accomplish is the creation of more loopholes and ambiguity. Furthermore, if we deem this kind of fix necessary, we’re bound to find ourselves in similar situations in future dynasties.

This is only a patch anyway.  I’ll draft a better or more complete fix once the dynasty ends.
