Add a new rule call “Rewriting the Record Booksâ€
An Actor with positive fame may often attempt to swap one of the films in eir filmography with one of the films in another Actor fimography, provided the following are true:
1) The roles in to two films e is attempting to swap are the same(An extra for an extra, an nth minor character for an nth minor character…)
2) Neither of the roles in question have earned Critical Acclaim.To attempt a swap, an actor first roles a DICE3. If the roll is a one, the swap is successful and e can enact any legal swap on the filmographies page. If the roll is a two, nothing happens. If the roll is a three, the Actor rolling the die is exposed in eir failed attempt, and e loses one fame point.

. It’s not thematic in any straightforward way. Moreover, before we start adopting proposals that can result in an Actor being able to affect another Actor’s filmography, I’d like to see some Proposals that flesh out the significance of an Actor’s choice of a given particular film over another one. (Hix has objected to making more extensive use of imdb data outside of our gamestate data, but I think that using imdb data provides opportunities for all kinds of interesting strategic choices regarding Filmography selections: will there be a benefit to choosing Films that have earned a lot of real-life awards, or a lot of box office, or that feature particular actors, directors, or subject matter?)
