Proposal: Starving is not permitted on the premises. Sorry.

Reached quorum 5 votes to 0. Enacted by Kevan. Six comments is “a quorum or majority of comments to this post” since quorum defaults to being player-specific, which is 5.

Add an unusual supply to the Supplies list.

Fishing Rod: As a Craction, a Resident carrying a Fishing Rod (Rod) may roll a d12 in the GNDT. If the Resident does not roll a 1, they gain Food equal to the number they rolled divided by three, rounded down.



If a quorum or majority of comments to this post (made before this proposal is passed or failed) contain the phrase “We need extra loot!’‘, Create a new rule, Fishing.

Once a day, a Resident (the Fisher) who has a Rod in their inventory may fish. Fishing is an atomic action that consists of the following: (*) Reduce the Alertness of the Fisher by 2. Roll a d50 in the GNDT. (*)If the number is equal to the Fisher’s current Alertness, the Government may choose an Item from the list of Unusual Supplies. (*) This item is added to the Fisher’s inventory unless his/her inventory is full. (*) If the roll equals the Fisher’s health, the Fisher takes .5 piercing damage. (*) If the roll equals neither, no further action pertaining to this instance of Fishing is taken.

Format the Atomic Action described above into a bulleted list, removing the string ‘(*)’ as many times as it occurs in this rule.

Testing the waters, not sure about this.
Maybe the second bit should be an entirely separate proposal.

1. usually we just use the mediawiki formatting for proposals, no need to get too complicated and it’s much easier to ctrl+c ctrl+v it into the ruleset.
2. keep in mind that “If a quorum or majority of comments to this post” means that someone could simply submit as many comments as necessary to make that either the majority or minority. A better phrase might be something like “If a quorum of Residents voting on this proposal make comments containing the text”
3. “the Government may choose an Item from the list of Unusual Supplies.” this occurs in the middle of an atomic action, which is unwieldy since that Resident would be stuck on that step, and couldn’t take any other actions at all, until the Government chooses an item.
4. The die function seems wonky, 12 -> 4 food; 11-9 -> 3 food; 8-6 -> 2 food; 5-3 -> 1 food; 2-1 -> 0 food; wouldn’t DICE5 minus 1 be simpler?

for for now

imperial Gaining 3 Food means losing 3 Alertness, which would be bad news for most players.
