Just about to make a proposal like this but this works too I guess.

(I even had a good title too lol, “The Feeding of the Zero”)

  I’ll see about cleaning up the system, and propose it by itself later, I think.

I’m also not exactly sure how to format the post, is there a way to look at the html tags on the ruleset?

[Mortal] Click “View source” at the top of the page to see the wiki source. It’s wiki markup rather than HTML, and it’s mostly just about apostrophes (for bold/italics) and asterisks (for bullets), eg.:

A Votable Matter is '''Unpopular''' if any of the following are true:
* The number of Residents who are not voting AGAINST it is less than Quorum.
* It has been open for voting for at least 48 hours is not Popular.

If you are planning to repropose a version of this, note that we’ve had some past discussions about avoiding actions which can change Alertness or Health at any time. This dynasty is (unusually) operating on a strict turn-based system, to avoid the “I saw it first” or “I stayed awake to midnight” timing issues that we often run into at BlogNomic.

If players are given a mechanic that lets them boost their Alertness at any time, then timing issues creep back in. If you’re in second place to pick and see a Crate drop with something really good in it, you might be able to quickly exercise a free-boost mechanic to get yourself into first place. Which takes us back to a game of “who saw the blog post first”.

We’ve generally been trying to keep all game actions as Cractions, instead.

Thank you, I’ll keep that in mind.
