Proposal: Sailing the seven seas

Passed with quorum 9-0 - Jack

Add a dynastic rule “Sailing” with the following text:

All Captains have a ‘Rank’ whose value matches one element of the sequence ‘1st’, ‘2nd’, ‘3rd’, ‘4th’, ‘5th’, ‘6th’ and ‘7th’ and it shall be tracked in the GNDT. A Captain must set eir Rank to ‘1st’ if it is not set to a valid value at any time.

Whenever a Proposal is enacted, a Captain may change eir Rank to the next or previous value in the sequence as e prefers, but only within the next 24 hours after the proposal becomes enacted. (The sequence does not loop over itself, so for example, a ‘7th’ rank can only move to ‘6th’ rank, not back to ‘1st’). This action is called “Bragging”.

Whenever eir proposal is enacted, or ANY proposal? I think it would make more sense to require that you can change your rank when your proposal is enacted.

My idea is to keep the game moving. Moving up or down in rank might become more important as the game progresses, and each approved proposal allows players to “Brag” right away, so speeding up the game. The plan is to later have something that will prevent someone from bragging on a proposal they didn’t vote on, and stuff like that.
