Proposal: Keeping growth in check

5-1. Reached Quorum.—Chronos

Rewrite the 4th paragraph of subrule territories so it reads:

Whenever a Country’s Proposal passes unanimously, that country may roll a DICE2. Upon rolling a 1, e may create a Territory which must be adjacent to at least one of eir Territories, and optionally is also adjacent to any number of other Territories. E does not automatically control this Territory.

We’re cranking out territories like no tomorrow while taking control of them takes aeons. I figured this would at least keep the amount of territories at a reasonable level.

(BTW: I’ve decided to wait a while before proposing another train. It seems a bit useless until we all have multiple territories.)

There is a very simple balancing system here - just vote against a proposal that has unanimous for votes if you don’t want another territory created.

I realize that, but I’d prefer letting proposals take their natural course and actually rewarding those who think of good proposals without letting it getting out of hand.
