Proposal: Rodlen Wuz Here

Passes 6-0 with quorum FOR. -Bucky

Add a new subrule to the rule “Orbit Contents”.  Call it “Flags” and give it the following text:

A Flag is a type of Satellite.  It has one Attribute, Owner, which is the name of a Shuttle or Idle Shuttle.  If a Flag’s Owner leaves the game, the Traffic Warden becomes its Owner.

If an Orbit has no Flag, any Shuttle with that Orbit may spend 1 Iron to create a Flag in that Orbit with them as the Owner.
If an Orbit has a Flag, any Shuttle with that Orbit may spend 1 Sulfur to Deface that Flag as a Knock-On Action, changing its Owner to any Shuttle (but not an idle Shuttle).

Add a Flag with Owner “MC Geran” to I3 and C1.

If a majority of EVCs on this proposal contain the word “Graffiti”, add a Flag with owner “Rodlen” to a random Ganymede orbit.

MC Geran was a cartography ship from the era before Magnetic Boosters.  She was scanning the surface of Io when a debris strike crippled her main engine, leaving her unable to boost out of Io’s gravity well.

Rumors that an orbit sweeper intentionally redirected a rock across MC Geran’s survey trajectory are, of course, strenuously denied by the Debris Disposal Authority.

“changing ‘is’ Owner to any Shuttle (but not an idle Shuttle).” => “changing ‘it’s’ owner to any shuttle”?

Fixed as an ‘obvious typographical mistake’.  Thanks.
