14-0. Quorum anyone?—Chronos

Adminned at 16 Dec 2005 03:34:20 UTC

In Law 1.1 replace

Laws and rules may be referred to by their type and number.

with

Laws and rules may be referred to by their type and entire number or type and name. (e.g. This Law may be referred to as Law 1.1 or the Law entitled ‘Ruleset and Gamestate’)

this is to prevent Rule 2.2 from being confused with Rule 2.2.2


In Law 1.2 replace

Some Protagonists are Idle, and should be marked as such in the sidebar. For the purposes of rules other than 1 and 2, idle Protagonists are not counted as Protagonists.

with

Some Protagonists are Idle, and should be marked as such in the sidebar. For the purposes of the ruleset, excluding Laws 1.1 and 1.2, idle Protagonists are not counted as Protagonists.

To comply with new law 1.1


Add the following to the last paragraph of Law 1.3

Rules may take precedence over this paragraph.

Just because i feel its necessary to do this, because it seems like precedence is funny otherwise


Replace the following from Law 1.4

If there exists more than one Vote from a single Protagonist on a single Proposal, only the most recent of those Votes is counted. If a Protagonist leaves the game or goes idle, eir Vote no longer counts.

with

If there exists more than one Vote from a single Protagonist on a single Proposal, only the most recent of those Votes is counted. Rules may take precedence over the previous sentence.  If a Protagonist leaves the game or goes idle, eir Vote no longer counts.

more precedence issues because we occasionally change voting


Add the following to Law 1.5

Rules may take precedence over any part of this law.

more precedence issues


Change the following from law 1.9

So long as the Hiatus is in effect, the only game actions that may be taken are those covered by laws 2, 6, and 9.

with

So long as the Hiatus is in effect, the only game actions that may be taken are those covered by laws 1.2, 1.6, and 1.9.

To comply with new law 1.1

for I really wanted to not-number the sections ‘laws’ and ‘rules’, but it turns out that’s impossible in this wiki.
