Proposal: God Does Not Play Dice

Timed out and passed, 7-1. Josh

Adminned at 19 Sep 2020 19:46:01 UTC

Add a subrule to the rule Turns, called DELAY: Tempo, with the following text:

DELAY: Any Island may change the word “one” in the description of the Roll Underground Action to “two”, and then remove this rule from the ruleset.

Make the rules Ecology and Life sub-rules of the rule Island Characteristics.

If Proposal: Live by the die, sword by the die has been enacted, remove the third paragraph from the rule Dice, and add the following to the list of default dice in the rule Dice:

DELAY: black: { no effect, no effect, sputter, upwell, effuse , erupt }

If the word Mana is present in the ruleset, change it to Catalyst or Catalysts.

Why remove the third paragraph from dice? doesn’t that break Adjust?

Live By The Die is going to duplicate it - should be in the contingent section though, will edit…

I kind of liked having “mana” used, for once, in the fictional environs from which it arose.

I hadn’t realised that was the origin of “mana”, does seem fine given that extra context.

Bah I would also prefer mana; I was responding to objections.

Maybe I’ll change it back later
