Reword the rule ‘Historical Dynasties’ to read as follows:
There are 100 machines. The ‘Machines’ wiki page tracks the information about each Machine. Each Machine has a name of the form “The X Machineâ€, and a number from 1 to 100. Each Machine is additionally Broken, Jammed, or Repaired, initially Broken.
Copy the wiki page ‘Historical Dynasties’ to ‘Machines’, then update the wiki page ‘Machines’ by replacing each instance of ‘Dynasty’ or ‘Metadynasty’ in the headings with ‘Machine’, and by deleting each line containing ‘Also known as’. Copy the wiki page ‘Eternities Map’ to ‘Factory Floor’.
Perform the following on all Rules, Pending Proposals, Pending Calls for Judgement, and the wiki pages ‘Machines’ and ‘Factory Floor’. When an item of gamestate is renamed in this fashion, it preserves its value:
Replace every instance of “Doctor” with “Foreman”. Replace every instance of “Time Buddha” with “Worker”.
Replace every instance of “Time Machine” in with “Robot”. Replace every instance of “TARDIS” with “Overhead Crane”. Replace every instance of “DeLorean” with “Forklift”. Replace every instance of “Wellsian” with “Ambler”.
Replace every instance of “Dark Matter” with “Quota”.
Replace every instance of “Eternities Map” with “Factory Floor”. Replace every instance of “Historical Dynasty” or “Dynasty” (and “Historical Dynasties” or “Dynasties”) with “Machine” (and “Machines”). Replace every instance of “Paradoxed” with “Jammed”.
Replace every instance of “Causal Link” with “Power Link”.
Replace every instance of “navigate to” with “activate”
Attention all employees. There is an all-hands NOW in room 230. Drop everything that you are doing; attendance is mandatory.
When was the last time any of you were out on the floor? Any of you?
Well, that’s good. Because if you had been, you’d be dead. You’ve let the floor overheat; it’s now completely unlivable. Nothing is working, either. We’re going to need to fix it with robots.
Don’t just stand there, get moving!
Much better IMHO
I suppose.
