Rewrite the rule Random Generators as follows:
The Dice Roller at https://blognomic.com/dice/roll.php can be used to generate random results.
* The DICEN command can be used to generate a random number between 1 and N.
* The FRUIT command will return a random result from the following options: Lemon, Orange, Kiwi, Grape, Cherry, Tangelo.
* The COLOUR (or COLOR) command will return a random result from the following: White, Red, Green, Silver, Yellow, Turquoise, Magenta, Orange, Purple, Black.
* The CARD command will return a card with a random suit (either Hearts, Diamonds, Spades or Clubs) and a random value (either Ace, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, Jack, Queen, King). A card with a value that is either Jack, Queen or King is a face card.
* A list of comma-separated values in curly brackets (eg {x,y}) will return one of the values at random.Any changes to the potential outcomes of the Dice Roller’s random result commands must be made by Proposal.
If a Proposal proposes a change to this rule that would require server-level access to the BlogNomic site to fully enact its effects, that Proposal must name a Player with such access. Only a Player with such access may Enact that Proposal. If that Proposal does not name a Player with such access, that Proposal is Illegal.
If a number or other game variable is selected “at random” or “randomly” from a range of possible values, its value shall always be taken from a uniform probability distribution over the entire range of possible values, unless otherwise specified. This value must be determined by an appropriate roll in the Dice Roller, unless otherwise specified. If a selection is explicitly specified as being “secretly” random, the Player making this determination may do so using a private method of their choosing, instead of the Dice Roller.
Uphold the random selection by the Dealer of players and start players in all games to have started before the enactment of this proposal.
At the moment the ruleset requires that players be determined “randomly”, which under the current wording means that they should be selected using the DICE command, not a CSV list, as Kevan has been using. But the CSV list is handy.
Lulu: she/her
I think you’re going to have to Uphold a lot more stuff than just this dynasty.
Also, typo: it should say “that will return”, not “will return”.
