Create a new dynastic rule, “Drafts and Plans”, placing it at the start of the dynastic ruleset:

A Draft is a page on the wiki, created after 03:54:00 UTC on 18 May 2025, that contains a summary of the gameplay for a hypothetical future dynasty, together with at least two hypothetical dynastic rules that might exist in the early stages of that dynasty. The content of each Draft is flavour text, except for the purposes of a) determining whether or not that Draft is in fact a Draft and b) determining whether or not that Draft complies with a Mandate. The names of Drafts are flavour text.

Each Drafter other than the Supervisor has a publicly tracked Plan Link, which is either blank or the name of a Draft that Drafter created. Plan Links are flavour text. A Drafter can set their own Plan Link to any valid value at any time (except during Hiatus). The Draft named by a Drafter’s Plan Link is known as that Drafter’s Plan.

While a Draft is a Plan, it is considered gamestate. The Drafter who created it is permitted to edit it, except in ways that would cause it to no longer be a Draft.

“Drafts and Plans”, except with more standard wording for preventing text injection.

You realize this is a 3rd proposal right ais? You last 2 haven’t been resolved as of the time of this posting

NB that I illegally marked this as illegal on the mistaken basis that it was a third proposal, having not recalled the Revisable status, and then un-adminned it (“overturned”) on the basis that said adminning was illegal.

The proposal was not available for voting for a total of 26 minutes which will need to be taken into account when determining times for resolution.

Nevermind, I was corrected on how the revise rule works

This is the first time we’ve used the “revise at quorum” rule, so I’m not surprised that there was an admin mistake (but fortunately, it can be corrected nowadays!).

Have another admin mistake: I enacted this at 24 hours without noticing the earlier comment.

DoomedIdeas pointed this out to me on Discord a little later, and I’ve reopened it - so this will need another 8 minutes of voting to cover the time that I’d wrongly closed it.

Please do not enact this proposal until 19:44 UTC!

I missed these comments and enacted too early again. I’ll be waiting a few more minutes just for safety.
