Proposal: Sharing Is Caring

Self-killed. Josh

If “Proposal: Power To The Players” does not enact, this proposal does nothing.

Amend the first paragraph of “The Game” to the following:

At any point, the Dealer may start a Game between any two Players whose Readiness is set to “Yes” by posting a blog entry to that effect (the entry being known as the Game’s “Table”), setting each of those Player’s Readiness to “No”, naming a random one of those Players as the Starting Player, generating a secretly random Hand of seven Cards for each of them, and generating a random sequence of four cards called the Community (all cards generated during these steps cannot repeat a card already generated in this game.) Each Player of the game is then privately informed of their Hand, by the Dealer. The Dealer then makes a comment to the Game’s Table listing the Community cards.  That Game is then considered to be Active, and remains Active until it Ends.



If “A Fine Game” enacts, change “Ends” in the previous paragraph to “Closed”.

Tossing my two cents in for a new mechanic.

“all cards generated during these steps cannot repeat a card already generated”

need to specific that its already generated for the game, not already generated like ever

Instead of generating cards on the fly can we move towards generating a deck and dealing cards from that?

ugh, just noticed that “previous paragraph” could refer to this paragraph or the paragraph before this paragraph

The word “ends” doesn’t actually appear in the paragraph before this anyways so it’s probably fine

against seems like the other mechanics are going in a different direction

against Interesting elaboration but I’m not sure that the basic game sustains it; I think we should see how the game as it is currently constituted plays out a bit first.
