Proposal: Identity Crisis

Times out Unpopular, 1-6 after an Imperial DEF. -Bucky

Adminned at 06 Jun 2023 21:46:46 UTC

If “Proposal: The Search” was not enacted, this Proposal has no effect.

Undo the effects of “Proposal: A Symbol Idea”, by reverting any ruleset text that its enactment changed or replaced to its previous state and removing any additional text or rules that it added to the ruleset. If “Proposal: Meeting of the Minds” was passed, undo its effects in the same manner.

the activity report outlined in The Search was intended to be a way for us to see Josh’s creative naming schemes so we could make better guesses. it gets a lot less interesting and more muddy if its listing thirty variations on the same four-word formula. ultimately, these two proposals are redundant, because they both serve the function of narrowing down the possibilities to make it feasible to guess names. it’s clear that people like them both, but i don’t think they can actually coexist!
i wanted to get this in before anyone else made any more proposals that interacted with the symbol name rules, to avoid things getting too complicated. but if this proposal fails, i’ll vote for JonathanDark’s idea to reconcile the two :0

Agreed that it’s not very interesting with 30 variations. My new Proposal limits this down quite a bit, and shuffles it up so that it’s not quite as dull, but preserves the spirit of The Search.

[Bucky] You can just resolve this proposal as an admin right? Why vote towards queue clearing?
