Thirty six hours.. hm. Monks are supposed to be in bed at night, so if we draft some way of punishing scofflaws, I don’t see any problem here.

I would like to avoid a rich-get-richer sort of sense this game—so far so good.

Tentatively, for, since I hesitated too long and the last proposals timed out without my vote.

against We shouldn’t encourage monks to stay outside all day. How am I supposed to take care of our guests if my fellow beacons of wisdom are all out jogging?

And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be.
