Proposal: Redraw

Timed out / quorumed 7 votes to 0. Enacted by Kevan.

Create a subrule of Initialisation or Machinist Agendas called Amendments:

The Great Machine may perform Amendments on a given Agenda that is impossible to complete when requested to do so by its owner. When the Great Machine performs an Amendment, they should do one of the below:
* Modify the agenda such that it is now theoretically possible to complete, retaining its general concept
* Replace it with a Reserve Agenda that shares as many keys as possible with the old one

If the rules change too much, we’re going to end up with Agendas that are literally incompletable, especially given how few rules are associated with some mechanics. Rather than force Machinists to out their agendas by making them propose rule fixes, it seems fairer to let them reroll their agenda.

However, as stated in the discord, this is an incomplete version due to the brevity limits. I’m intending to propose the full version once I get another slot back, given that most will initially be impossible.

for this seems like a great idea to me, provided there’s more added on with a future proposal. i definitely think there should be some Agendas which involve completely theoretical rules, and a rule like this seems like a prerequisite for that to be fair!
