Proposal: Gathering Dust

Enacted popular, 11-0. Josh

Adminned at 28 Jun 2021 08:00:13 UTC

Enact a new rule, “Cleanup Proposals”:-

A proposal from Richardo von Nestor is a Cleanup Proposal if it consists entirely of moving text between dynastic rules without changing that text, of reformatting a list of items as a list of bullet points, and/or adding bold markup and/or paragraph breaks to a rule. A Cleanup Proposal may be given the tag “[Cleanup]”.

Cleanup Proposals are not counted as proposals for the “already has 2 Proposals pending” of the rule “Proposals”, and may be made even if Richardo von Nestor has 2 Proposals pending.

Have wondered for a while if we should try out something like this, giving the Emperor a bit more freedom to tidy up the ruleset without spending a slot.

I actually think we’d benefit from a Core (probably glossary) definition for “a proposal that doesn’t cost a slot”. The concept has been used in a number of dynasties (and I was considering introducing something similar this dynasty, although for a rather different purpose from this, but I decided to use my slots on mechanics that would have more gameplay impact).

[ais523] Probably a good idea, we always (as I have here) end up simplifying it in a way that doesn’t exactly mean “doesn’t take up a slot”.

Feels like something that should go in Special Case, though.

Definitely one for Special Case if it works, but we should give it a test drive first.
