Add a new field to the GNDT called ‘Mutiny’. Give it two values: ‘Peaceful’ and ‘Mutineering’

Add a new rule, entitled Mutiny:

At any point, any Shirking Swashbuckler may set eir Mutiny status in the GNDT to ‘Mutineering.’ If e does so, e automatically moves to the location of the Mutineering Swashbuckler with the highest GPS, unless e is in Davy Jones Locker, British Gaol or the Bilge. If e has a higher GPS than all existing Mutineering Swashbucklers, then the other Mutineers must move to em, and e may not move until the Mutiny is gathered around em.

The Mutiny is always consided to be in the location with the highest concentration of GPS amongst its Mutineering Swashbucklers. The Mutiny may only move as a discrete collective. No member of the Mutiny may ever move to a location other than that to which the whole Mutiny is moving. If a Swashbuckler moves and the Mutiny does not follow, e must be moved back after 24 hours and any actions he undertook must be reversed. If the Mutiny moves and a Swashbuckler does not follow, after 24 hours have past e ceases to be a Mutineer and must have eir GNDT status changed back to ‘Peaceful’, unless the Captain is present, in which case he can send the failed Mutineer to the Bilge. If the Mutiny is ever in the Forecastle Deck area, then anyone in the Bilge is automatically freed.

If ever the Mutiny is in the same location as the Captain, the Captain is made to Walk the Plank - e is moved to Davy Jones’ Locker and ceases to be the Captain. At that point, the first person to make to to the Captain’s Quarters may attempt to gain control, adding 5 to eir GPS. If they can stay in the Captain’s Quarters for 24 hours without loosing a Duel, they may declare victory. If not, then all Swashbucklers must leave the Captain’s Quarters; as soon as it is empty, then any Swashbuckler may again attempt to gain control in the same manner, except the last Swashbuckler to who left the Captain’s Quarters (as no pirate would ever follow someone so sluggish).

I feel like a little gambling so I’ll put 5 doubloons on this proposal failing—even though the captain is for it! Any takers?

for Sure, why not. 6 doubloons say it’s going to pass. I wouldn’t put it past ye to bribe that scurvy land-lubber into self-killing it, but remember that you’d both pay dearly for it. I’ll shiver the timbers of both of you!

against The muntiny should have to have GPS greater than that of the Captain + the other in his Square, otherwise a single Landlubber could go and plank the Capitain with ease.

Yarr, that be his fault for allowing there to be someone stronger than him on his ship. He be the Captain, for pete’s sakes.

Purplebeard - I be shocked to hear ye impunin’ me sailors intergity. For that I should keel-haul yer and no mistake.

Arrr, after that lack o’ activity o’er the past few days, I be tempted t’ end the dynasty, but now with this flurry o’ proposals, I withdraw my previous statement!

Long live the Inquisitor!

Under this rule, Rodney, who has 0 GPS (sorry t’ hear that, by the way) could easily plank me even with my GPS o’ 12.
