Proposal: Hyperdeflation

Self-killed. Failed by Kevan.

To “Submissions”, add a paragraph:-

The piece of art submitted with the title of “Ten Trillion Dollars” shall instead be considered to have a title of “Zimbabwean Banknote”, for the purposes of all rules other than this one, and all of this rule’s subrules (although the piece of art may be referred to by either title in Ballot Submissions).

my biggest concern with this is that it leaves people in a pickle where they can’t really vote for it because if they vote for “Zimbabwean Banknote” and this doesn’t pass, their ballot is invalid. But if they vote for “Ten Trillion Dollars” and this doesn’t pass, their ballot is also invalid.

leaving edit window open for you to get a fix that addresses this, but anything that results in people risking an invalid ballot submission by voting for the title mentioned in the post will get vetoed

Good point, and addressed.

This seems like it has too many moving parts that are more of a risk than letting the title be the title.

Ultimately I think we’re safe against scams here. The price of “Ten Trillion Dollars” is not ten trillion dollars, and titles are always flavour text. But happy to defer to what the players of the game want.
