Create a new rule, “Proposal Protection Services”:
In today’s economy, Players can’t afford to bring bread to the table without working two or even three proposals at once. In order to more evenly distribute filibustering opportunities, players who are the authors of less than 2 pending Proposals can become Guardians of any Pending Dynastic Proposal P that meets all of these criteria:
a) P is Representing them explicitly.
b) They are not already the author of P.
c) P has no other Guardian already.To become Guardian of a Proposal, the Executing Player must make a comment of “[PROTECTION SERVICE]” on that Proposal, ON BEHALF OF its author, within the first 24 hours since the creation of the Proposal. Then, the Executing player becomes Guardian of the proposal and is considered the sole author of that Proposal.
If at least half the EVC contain the phrase “Food Stamps”, then at the end of the previous rule add:
If this is the first time the Executing Player has become a Guardian in the last 72 hours, and the Executing Player has 3 or less SP, that player becomes elegible to receive a Stimulus Package.
Since now it restricts takeover to Representation Proposals, authors can choose which Proposals they don’t mind loosing (hopefully they will only choose players they trust in the representation section; people that could already SK the proposal anyways, and who have no reason to scam them). Furthermore, they can include themselves in the Representation list explicitly, so they will get SP refunded. The main reason for this kind of proposal is to allow players to “rent” proposal slots. If the proposal passes, they recover their investment, otherwise they lose 1 SP.
