Proposal: Preventing Infinite Point Scams

Add a new sub-rule “Speed Limit” to rule “Points”:
No Player can have their score absolutely increased by more than 30 during a single day (which is defined as a 24 hour period starting at midnight UTC). If a Player’s score would be absolutely increased by more than 30 during a day, their score is instead increased by the maximum amount which doesn’t cause their score to be absolutely increased by more than 30 that day (this can be zero).
This can make a future win condition based on points work as intended, giving us a window to patch the loophole before the player goes infinite. Also note that the tracked increase is absolute, so if someone loses ten points, then they can win up to 40 that day.
