Proposal: Stake the pegs, peg the stakes

Reaches quorum, 5-1 (with 1 imperial DEF). Enacted by pokes.

Replace

Each Player has a number of pegs, which is publicly tracked and which defaults to zero; when a game ends, its Campione gains a number of pegs equal to the game’s stakes. For the purposes of the Magistrelli system, this is treated as gaining one peg multiple times.

with

Each Player has a number of pegs, which is publicly tracked and which defaults to 30. When a Game ends, its Campione gains a number of pegs equal to the game’s stakes, and any non-Campione Players of that Game lose a number of pegs equal to the game’s stakes. For the purposes of the Magistrelli system, gaining X pegs is treated as gaining one peg X times.

Add 30 to the pegs of each Player; this addition has no effect on Magistrelli.

30 only because it feels more flavorful than letting it be an integer that goes negative.

Might need clarifying that “any non-Campione Players” does not include the Players of other games. (Maybe that should be a broader rule somewhere, that the Giolitti rules only ever refer to the players of an individual game of it.)

Good idea, edited.

The challenge for Cuddlebeam here will be unidling precisely when this proposal is halfway enacted.

Enacting isn’t an atomic action, so he could always try. Do not say his name twice more to summon him

Magistrelli may need to be exempted from the “add 30 pegs” effect.

Also a good edit, done.

(though we should ideally give Zack 30 pegs if they come back)
