Rewrite the rule “Bloodline” so that it reads:
Each Guest has a degree of relation to Lord Cartlesham, represented as a number and tracked privately by the Executor. The Guest with the lowest degree of relation is Lord Cartlesham’s next of kin.
If a Guest has no degree of relation defined, the Executor may privately assign a uniformly randomly-selected degree between 1 and 1000 to that Guest. If two Guests should ever have the same degree, the Executor should choose one of those Guests at random and raise or lower their degree by 1.
Purplebeard:
I should probably explain what this fixes.
Currently, a guest’s degree of relation is defined as a number between 1 and 1000. This conflicts directly with rule 2.14, which allows for higher degrees of relation.
I also added ‘uniformly’ to the second paragraph to ensure that the Executor assigns degrees of relation fairly.
