Proposal: Teamwork

Timed out and failed, 6-4. Josh

Adminned at 14 Dec 2006 01:57:09 UTC

Create a new dynastic rule entitled “Teams” with the text:

There are several teams an Olympian may be a member of. An Olympian may become a member of a team if e is not a member of any team. An Olympian may remove emself from eir team if e has been a member of that team for at least 48 hours. An Olympian may be removed from a team at any time by that team’s captain. The team an Olympian is a member of is shown in the GNDT, along with any position e has in the team (in the format Team:Position). An Olympian may have only one position in a team.
Each team has one or more positions. All teams have the position of Captain. A team’s Captain is appointed by the Coach from all members of that team. Any other positions in a team are appointed by the team’s captain from all members of the team. The number of Olympians that may have that position is recorded next to the name of the position.

List of Teams
*Football
a.k.a. Soccer in some countries
Positions: Captain (1)
Goalkeeper (1)
Striker (1)
Midfielder (3)
Back (3)
Foreward (2)

Add a GNDT column “Team”
Teams could be used for events where the medals recieved depend on different checks for different positions. I don’t want to work out the mechanics of it until some of the other proposals pass.

I like the idea but

A) If Bucky’s rule passes, I would need the power to create teams(so that I can run team events) without need for proposal.
B) More importantly, Football itself takes 11 people. We have 13 signed up. That means if we hold people to one team per member, we could only have one team.

Not all the positions in a team would need to be filled, though. It just means that only three people in that team could be midfielders (for example).
Also, a clause to allow the coach to create teams could be added.

I’m not quite sure that teams where everyone is on the same side is uninteresting, for instance will someone risk an injury for the greater good, those who get on the team will probably be more popular
