Proposal: Misfiring update

Timed out and enacted, 7-0. Josh

Adminned at 29 Sep 2020 20:57:38 UTC

Remove the DELAY: from the title of the rule DELAY: Dice Update.

Swap the order of the steps in the Generate Time atomic action.

Proposal: Mana and Life may have soft-locked the game, or will have at the end of the round - and if it hasn’t then it certainly has no effect.

As it stands, the following will happen:

* An Island will start to generate Time.
* The first step of this process will require them to replace the rule Turns with the text in the rule Round 4. This will include the steps for the Generate Time atomic action, not all of which have been completed. Because of the rule Atomic Actions, the unfulfilled steps of Generate Time still have to be completed, but they also don’tt exist any more. This possibly means that the next step of the atomic action can’t be completed so the whole atomic action has to be reverted.
* The next step requires them to carry out the instructions in Dice Update, but Dice Update is delayed. The means that either: they can’t carry out this step of the atomic action, so can’t complete the atomic action, so the whole atomic action has to be reverted and the game is soft-locked, OR they can carry out the action because the text of the rule is flavour text so has no impact.

This proposal fixes both issues.
