Add a new dynastic rule with the following text:

If a Guardian is in the Queue then they may spend 1 Livestock to change their position in the Queue to any position other than the front or the back of the Queue.

If a Guardian is on the Path then they may spend 1 Money to change their position to any position.

A mild Protective-Gardener against on the Queue shuffling, I think, as it changes the timing of the game. If a player’s decision to jump the queue depends on what someone else chooses to do on their turn, or what Fate the Oracle reveals, then the best time to jump is immediately after that turn happens, adding pressure to be online for longer or more frequently.

Does the inability to jump to the front of the queue not impact that? If the best you can do is second place then timing matters less; you have until the player in first place moves.

It matters less, but still matters. If a player’s reason for wanting to be in second or third or whatever place depends on what a player higher up does on their turn, then there’s a limited, timezoned window for them to make that jump.

imperial for now. I like Path order shuffling, but I’m undecided on Queue order shuffling.
