Proposal: Idle Hands

2-11.  Cannot reach quorum w/o CoV.

Adminned at 05 Dec 2005 12:06:32 UTC

Create a new Impulse named Hands:

There are two Hands which may be controlled by Voices, a Left Hand and a Right Hand. A Voice may take control of a Hand by Whispering to it. If more than one player Whispers to an individual Hand, the player who most recently had a proposal pass controls the Hand. A player who controls a Hand may perform one of the following actions often.:
Write: The player may write an additional proposal over the normal proposal limit.
Wrestle: The player cancels an Action performed by the other Hand as long as no more than 24 hours has passed since the other Hand performed the action.
Craft: The player crafts a Gamepiece.
If no player is whispering to a Hand, that Hand is controlled by the Ego.

and a new Impulse called Gamepieces

There will be a number of game entities called Gamepieces. Gamepieces will be recorded on a Wiki page. Each Gamepiece will have three values:
Handedness: If the piece was crafted by the Left Hand, it will be a Left-Handed Gamepiece, and if it was crafted by the Right Hand, it will be a Right-Handed Gamepiece.
Name: A unique name.
Crafter: The Voice which crafted the Gamepiece.

i love it for two reasons, reminds me of my dynasty, and yet it doesn’t do anything like what hands did in my dynasty.

woo.

BUT does this mean the moment this passes the ego can craft two gamepieces?  does the ego count as a voice in this?

Yes, he can instantly craft two gamepieces and he does count as a voice in this instance.

imperial my name does not appear in the drop-down menu on the gndt, as such i cannot participate in the gamestate very well.  how does one rectify this?

You just have to log into the GNDT and then change your own value.

As it stands, this will do nothing, since “player” is not defined in the gamestate.

Am I allowed to edit the proposal or do I have to repropose?

against We’ve used wikis for FOUR strait dynasties. I really don’t want to have more bookkeeping. If these are recorded another way I’ll reconsider.

against Especially the “most recently had a proposal pass” part.  That’s just no fun:  A Voice could lose eir opportunity to control a Hand when multiple proposals are enacted at once, for example.
Hands are not Voices, right?  So would this rule allow whispering to non-Voices?

for I’m willing to tolerate some wiki tracking to have fun with this.

It doesn’t say it does, so it doesn’t work.  also, ‘player’ is undefined.

also, I’ve had enough playing in the wiki too.

Meant to do that earlier.  I’ll fail it now.
