Proposal: Free the means of travel

Reaches quorum, 4-1, with the “Mobility Now!” rider not included. Enacted by pokes.

Adminned at 18 Feb 2019 11:29:11 UTC

If a quorum of EVC’s on this Proposal contain the text “Mobility Now!”, consider [DTP] in this Proposal to mean 2. Otherwise, consider it to mean 1.

Replace the text of “Locations” after the first paragraph with:

Each Adventurer has a non-negative number of Travel Points (TP), tracked in the GNDT as “TP”, defaulting to [DTP].

At any time, an Adventurer may spend 1 TP to change their Location to any other.

Add to the list of actions for Respawning:

* Set each Adventurer’s TP to [DTP].

Set each Adventurer’s TP to [DTP].

This is less confusing to me than Travel Plans.

The thing is, I don’t want to give players too much mobility. With two moves per person, you can go to town every Respawn. With one move per Respawn, you can hunt once and then return to town. The next Respawn, you can move to a wilds and hunt once. I think that town trips should be more planned out. However, it’s clear that people are unsatisfied with the travel plans mechanic, so I’m going to do imperial here.

That sounds reasonable and why I gave the 1 vs. 2 option. This EVC conspicuously does not include the mobility string: for
