Add a new dynastic rule titled “Time Signature” with the following body.
There is a variable known as the “Time Signature” written in the form x/y where 2 < x < 12 and y is a member of {2, 4, 8}. The conductor may often change the time signature by making a post to that effect. With the exception of these posts, the time signature is not officially tracked so it is the responsibility of each musician to track the time signature for emselves.
Add a subrule titled “Proposals” with the following body.
Rule 1.3 does not apply.
Any Musician may submit a Proposal to change the Ruleset or Gamestate, by posting an entry in the “Proposal” category that describes those changes unless…
- e already has 2x/y proposals pending or
- e has already made 3x/y Proposals that day
...where x and y are substituted in from the current time signature and fractions are rounded down.
When the conductor changes the time signature, e must veto all proposals that are in excess of the new limit (starting with the most recent such proposal).
Proposals can either be Pending, Enacted, or Failed. When a Proposal is first put forward, it is considered Pending.

Well, it would be nice to have the time signature on the main blognomic page, maybe like
“The First Dynasty of Thelonious in 7/4 time”
