Create a new dynastic rule, “Dynastic Glossary”:
The following terms have the following meanings:
- contract
- an agreement between players enforced by the rules
- crime
- something that is possible, but that the rules specify an explicit penalty for doing
- disinterested
- Trivial
- emergency
- A Hiatus with at least two CFJs created during it
- in a timely manner
- no more than 7 days late
- Jiffy
- 36 hours
- mackerel
- One fifth of a Point
- microhertz
- Once in a length of time equal to 11 days, 13 hours, 46 minutes, 40 seconds
- modest
- likely to cause huge damage to the gamestate
- monster
- Any term mentioned in a large number of rules, but not defined
- nweek
- 12 days, not counting time spent during a Hiatus
- ordinance
- A core rule
- proosal
- proposal
- suffusion of yellow
- whatever the relevant part of the rule in question said before it was amended to contain “suffusion of yellow”
- round
- 72 hours
An Ascension Address corresponding to a successful DoV may optionally delete any number of definitions from this rule (or leave this rule untouched or repeal it, as normal).
Most, but not all of these, are stolen from present or past versions of other nomic’s rulesets; the definitions are not always the same as in the other nomic, though. The idea is that if one of these random terms turns up due to ruleset theft, we’ll have a definition ready-made. Also, we might want to use some of these in rules we write.
