BlogNomic: The First Dynasty of Desertfrog

If Proposal: Casing the Joint was not enacted then this proposal has no effect.

1. Recommended Blocks
In the Building Blocks section, replace the string ‘The current Recommended Building Blocks rules are: Dormancy, Dynastic Distance and Mantle Limitations’ with ‘There are currently no Recommended Building Blocks’.

1a. Mantle Passing
In the Other section of the Keywords rule in the Appendix, add the following:

Pass the Mantle: Passing the Mantle is a mechanism by which, during an Interregnum, a Grim Reaper may nominate another Necromancer to become the Grim Reaper in the upcoming dynasty. Unless a Core, Dynastic or Building Block rule explicitly states otherwise, Passing the Mantle is currently prohibited.

In the Building Blocks section of the ruleset, repeal the rule Mantle Limitations. In the Building Blocks page of the wiki, change Mantle Limitations to be titled Mantle Passing, and change its text to read as follows:

During an Interregnum, the new Grim Reaper may Pass the Mantle by making a post naming a Necromancer who was not the last dynasty’s Grim Reaper; the passing Necromancer then ceases to be the Grim Reaper and the Necromancer so named becomes the Grim Reaper.

1b. Dormancy
Add the following as a subrule to the rule Necromancers, called Dormancy:

If there are fewer than four Necromancers (not including the Grim Reaper), then BlogNomic is on Hiatus.

In the Building Blocks section of the ruleset, repeal the rule Dormancy. In the Building Blocks page of the wiki, change Dormancy to be titled Low-Player Mode, and give it the following text:

The Core Rule Dormancy is flavour text.

2. Tidy-up
Add the following to the end of the second paragraph of the rule Votes:

When the Grim Reaper themselves casts a vote of DEFERENTIAL, it indicates an indication of confidence in the votes of the other players; please see the Rules and Votable Matters section of the Appendix for more information on how this is resolved.

Move the paragraph that starts ‘On the 24th, 25th and 26th of December’ to an entry in the Other section of the Keywords rule in the Appendix, titled Seasonal Downtime.

In the text of the top-level Building Blocks section, change “and any rules not so named must be removed” to “and any Building Blocks rules not so named must be removed from the Building Blocks section”.

If there is a potential rule on the Building Blocks page called Malign Emperors, change “If the Special Case rule “No Private Communication” is Active, any Necromancer may set it to Inactive. (The combo is too strong.)” to “If there is a Building Block rule called No Private Communication then any Necromancer may remove this rule from the ruleset.
