Proposal: Secure, Contain, Protect

In the rule “Organisms”, replace the text “There is a list of Organisms” with “There is a publicly tracked list of Organisms”, and add the following text at the end of the first paragraph:

When adding an Organism to the publicly tracked list, the name of the Organism should be the text “SGL-” following by a number generated from rolling DICE10000, repeating this roll until the resulting name does not match any in the existing Organisms list.

 

Fixing the list of Organisms to be publicly tracked and adding a way to uniquely name them with a designation from Sublogical Genomics Laboratory.

I think it might be more interesting for the names to be Codons: it would open up new possibilities for the effects of Codons

That would of course reduce the number of different names significantly, so would need some way to remove old Organisms

That could be interesting. I’d rather leave the proposal as-is for now, but if someone wants to change it to use Codons as names, I’d probably support that if the mechanism is clean enough.
