Create a wiki page entitled “Agendas”, linked to in the “Current Game Documents” section of the main wiki page, in accordance with Rule 2.8 (“Agendas”), if it does not already exist.
Change Rule 2.7 (“Sessions”) to read:
The Dynasty has lengths of time called Sessions. The Speaker may call a Session to order by making a post to that effect if a Session is not already in progress. In a Call to Order, the Speaker should make a statement about the duties and responsibilities of Honourable Members. In addition, in a Call to Order, the Speaker shall indicate which Future Agenda (from the “Agendas” wiki page) the Session shall follow, which Agenda is moved to the “Current Agenda” section of the “Agendas” wiki page and can no longer be edited. During a Session, any Proposal submitted which is not an Activity or a Whisper cannot be enacted and its author looses 5 Credibility at the moment that it fails. No Session may end until all Items on its Current Agenda have been resolved, at which point any Honourable Member may make a post of Closing Remarks, which immediately ends (or “Adjourns”) the Session and moves the Current Agenda to the “Past Agenda” section of the “Agendas” wiki page.
Change Rule 2.8 (“Agendas”) to read:
Agendas are named lists of Items tracked in a wiki page entitled “Agendas” which has three main sections: “Current Agenda”, “Future Agendas”, and “Past Agendas”. If no Session is in progress, the “Current Agenda” section is empty. The “Past Agendas” section is purely for archival purposes, so no Agenda in it shall be edited. Only Agendas in the “Future Agendas” can be edited; this is done through Proposals, which can add new Items or edit existing Items to existing Future Agendas or create new Future Agendas, which must be named.
No Proposal shall have a Subject which is the text of an Item of a Future Agenda. When a Session is in progress, a Proposal with a Subject which is the text of an Item of the Current Agenda should be referred to as an Activity. There shall be no more than one Activity corresponding to each Agenda Item. The content of an Activity shall be clearly relevant to its corresponding Agenda Item. When the Activity corresponding to an Item is resolved in the manner typical for Proposals, the Item is considered resolved. When an Agenda Item is resolved, the author of its corresponding Activity is awarded 3 Credibility in addition to any Credibility they otherwise receive from authoring a proposal.
If a rule called “Party Consensus” is in effect, change all occurances of “DIFFERENTIAL” to “DEFERENTIAL” and change “Inversely” to “Conversely”.
Making Sessions significant by constraining Proposals made within them. Credibility gain from Activities is a little higher and compatible with The Party Line. Also fixing my other pending Proposal if it passes.
