Proposal: In which it gets to ya

Reached quorum 4 votes to 0. Enacted by Kevan.

Replace “The mean global temperature anomaly (MGTA) is X.”, where X is a number, with “The mean global temperature anomaly (MGTA), measured in millikelvin, is Y.”, where Y is 1000 times X.

Remove the final bullet point from the list of bullet points comprising Advancing a Year, and then add:

* Increasing the MGTA by the sum of the IO of all Energy Ministers.
* Rolling DICE8000 in the GNDT for each Energy Minister. If that roll is less than the MGTA, remove a random Asset from that Energy Minister.
* Making a post to the blog indicating that the Year has been Advanced.

Dividing and multiplying by 1000 is going to get old. The tragedy of the commons here can always be tuned.

I’m cool with it mechanically but it just seems pretty tedious, no? Oh well. for

(it also doesn’t seem very tragedy of the commons and more like just a mechanic for more RNG because it’s still zero sum but I don’t mind that tbh.)

imperial Multiplying up is a good idea, but entirely random punishments are harsh.
