Add the following Rule:
On their turn, Islands may subtract two from pressure to construct a “mountain”. Each island has their Base foliage increase by 1 for each mountain. After the Flood, for each mountain an island has, they roll a 10 sided die to determine that 5 animal biomass is retained (if you have more than 5)—only a roll of 10 retains the animals.
animals can try running to the mountains to escape the flood
All of those things. Also, an optional “on their turn” effect should really go into the Overground Actions list, so that people can find it more easily.
9spaceking: To selfkill a proposal, you need to vote against it, not post a veto symbol. A veto symbol only has meaning for the Emperor.
For the queue. Also because I honestly don’t see the point of being Emperor if you don’t occasionally get to veto things.
BlogNomic is an online Nomic: a self-modifying game where changing the rules is part of the game. Players make blog posts proposing additions or alterations to the ruleset, discussing and casting votes in the comments: if enough vote in favour, the rules are changed and play continues.
The game has been running since 2003 and resets every month or so. Have a look around the wiki for more information and history. New players are always welcome and can join in the game at any time.

Bais:
A couple issues I see with this proposal as currently worded:
* “Each island has their Base foliage increase by 1 for each mountain.” is not well-defined behavior because it doesn’t say what triggers the increase. Can I just apply the rule over and over and increase my foliage infinitely?
* What constitutes “Base foliage”? AFAIK it’s not an individual state of each island.
* What constitutes a mountain? Is this an additional stat tracked on the Great Sea table?
* The dice rule is somewhat ambiguous; each player may roll multiple dice.. Does any single roll of a 10 retain all the animals, while not rolling any 10 means no animals are retained?
