Proposal: The Two-dynastic Scoreboard
Create a new rule, “Success Continuity”:
This rule cannot be repealed by Dynastic Reset. Once a Dynastic Reset completes, the text of this rule changes to “Each Agent has a publicly tracked count of Successes, defaulting to the median value of Successes among all other Agents, rounded down.” and (at the same time as the previous change) each Agent’s Successes is set to the number of Successes they had immediately prior to the most recent enactment of a Declaration of Victory (or to its default value if they were not an Agent at that time), except that if the Custodian is an Agent their Successes are set to 0.
Iterating on the interdynastic scoreboard idea, and making it even simpler – instead of making Successes last through all dynasties, why not just keep the value around for the next dynasty (to give players an incentive to do well in this dynasty even if they can’t win it?). Note that there is no guarantee that they would be used for anything next dynasty, but it is possible that because the statistic is avaliable, it will be used for something.
I think that something like this will be required to make the dynasty function if “Acceleration” fails. If “Acceleration” succeeds, it’s less important but still functions correctly.
The Dynastic Reset will replace words in this rule to match the new theme, so the rule works even across theme changes.
