Proposal: Government Options Menu

Timed out. Fails 5-10,—Clucky

Adminned at 01 Nov 2011 16:08:43 UTC

REPRESENTING: southpointingchariot, Amnistar, Chronos Phaenon, ais523

Add the following text to the end of the rule “The Government”:

The Player causing The Government to take an action makes all choices required by that action.

Add a subrule to the rule “The Government”.  Call it “Taxation” and give it the following text:

If there are at least 4 Players who have a nonzero SP count, the Government may Levy Taxes.  When it does so, it transfers 1 SP belonging to each of 4 different Players to itself.

If a majority of EVCs on this proposal include the text “Employ Us”, add a new subrule to the rule “The Government”.  Call it “Bureaucy” and give it the following text:

The Government is considered to be a Player for the purpose of the rule “Employment” and its subrules.  Players employed by the Government are called Bureaucrats.

arthexis, which one?

Bucky:

30-10-2011 22:32:14 UTC

Arthexis, the Government gets the 4 SP (not the players), and players can’t cause the Government to cause the Government to act (because it isn’t itself a player)

Bucky: It isn’t a player… unless Bureaucracy passes, then it would be.

Ornithopter apparently did not read the proposal carefully.  The four Players are chosen by the person who causes the Government to take the action.
