If “A Symbol Idea” was not enacted, this Proposal has no effect.
In the subrule “Avatars”, add this text before the text “, a home Tier”:
, a list named Chosen Words defaulting to empty
In the rule “Tier 2: Post Singularity Consciousness”, add a subrule called “Mind Meld” with this text:
If a Mindjacker has not done so since the last time that their Level changed, they may perform the Mind Meld action by making an uncategorized blog post whose contents contain the phrase “I am Mind Melding at Level X”, where “X” is the current Level of the author of the post at the time the blog post was made. If this blog post meets the criteria for a Mind Meld action, the Ascendent must perform these steps at their earliest convenience as an atomic action:
* Choose an Avatar whose occupancy Tier is equal to the Level of the Mindjacker who made the blog post.
* * If there are no such Avatars, create one that fits this criteria and choose it for this atomic action, but if the maximum number of Avatars has already been reached, instead privately send the message “No response” to the Mindjacker who made the blog post, skip all remaining steps, and consider this atomic action completed.
* If all the words from the Symbol Name are in the Chosen Words for this Avatar, set the Chosen Words for this Avatar to empty.
* Choose one word from the Symbol Name of this Avatar that is not in the Chosen Words for this Avatar.
* Privately send this word to the Mindjacker who made the blog post.
* Add this word to the Chosen Words for this Avatar.
Introducing a way to narrow down the identity of an Avatar and strategy on whether to act on the information sooner and take a chance on discovering the Avatar before anyone else, or hold on to the information until more is revealed by another Mindjacking from someone else.
summai:
Greentick, but it will still be very difficult to guess the Avatar even after Mind Melding.
Also, just out of curiosity, what’s the difference between a regular uncategorised blog post and a post from the story post category?
