Proposal: Render Unto Caesar

Fewer than a quorum not voting against. Failed 1-6 by Kevan.

Adminned at 21 May 2021 15:43:35 UTC

Add the following as a new rule to the dynastic ruleset, called Collector Envy:

The Collector has a value called Envy Level, which is publicly tracked and which has an initial value of $3,500.

Any Broker for whom the combined Prices of all items in their Collection is higher than the Broker’s Envy Level is said to be Ostentatious. An Ostentatious Broker may not achieve or declare Victory; this rule takes precedence over all other rules.

In the rule Totalling Votes, after “Give the 3rd Broker in that list 1 Kudos, and Display the corresponding piece of art with a Price of $1000”, add a new bullet point reading as follows:

Increase the Collector’s Envy Level by $1000 plus 200DICEn, where n is the number of pieces of art submitted in the previous round.

This unfortunately clashes a bit poorly with my proposal but can probably be fixed in post to do items in their collection + cash.

“this rule takes precedence over all other rules.”
Does it need to claim precedence over appendix rules?

“Increase the Broker’s Envy Level”
Which broker?

Ach, should be the Collector. Does that count as a typo? Probably not, eh?

I’m going to correct it; worst case scenario, it renders this proposal that I was going to s/k anyway illegal.

against Even with fixed wording, I’m not sure I like the look of a slightly unpredictable swinging blade that will (if Collections come to mean anything) only hit the most successful players.
