Proposal: Small Print [Core] [Appendix]

Timed out and failed, with 5 for votes insufficient to meet the quorum requirements set out. Josh

If the proposal “Ruleset Tracking” was enacted, move the sentence “This document is considered to be, in effect, the only Ruleset for BlogNomic, so long as it is located at at the URL https://wiki.blognomic.com/index.php?title=Ruleset.” from Rule 1.1 to instead be a new bullet point before the first of the Appendix rule “Prioritisation”.

Undoing an apparently tangential aspect of Ruleset Tracking. From Redtara’s comments, this seems to be an agree-to-disagree aesthetic issue rather than something that impacts how the ruleset functions.

I don’t think a microscopically niche technical clarification about ruleset URLs should be presented in Rule 1.1 as basically the fourth thing that anyone needs to know about the game.

I guess I just disagree that a line saying “this very document is the all-powerful ruleset” is microscopically niche. But as I suggested in Discord, this is more or less a matter of taste.

It might be a crucial technical footnote to “This is the Ruleset for BlogNomic”, but I don’t see it as being anything more than that. It’s not something that I’d draw a new player’s attention to, as a Mentor.

for tbh I’m fairly ambivalent and frankly did not expect the backlash on my proposal to be over this point. So if it makes everyone happy why not.
