So, moving to a zone can be done in two ways, via this rule or by changing floors? What about moving between floors in a zone? I guess that’s not “moving to a zone”?

“Moves to a Zone” is intended to be a thing people can do, that only triggers when the explicitly move to a zone. Simply changing your floor is not intended to count as “Moving to a zone”

could’ve easily clarified that if certain players didn’t decide to edit lock it for some reason

this collapses all of the interesting variety of a zone containing multiple floors. i know thats not ur intent, but a rude edit lock has petrified it into a boring shape. RIP

personally I think its still fine without the clarification. “Moves” isn’t defined elsewhere, so I think it is a bit of a stretch to say that if someone changes floors they “moved to that floor” and an even bigger stretch to say they “moved to the zone” the floor is in.

If you want Move to a Zone not to be defined in the traditional sense, maybe use a less generic english word, like Teleport or Jump. Otherwise I’ll probably expect changing floors to also be moving.

why? seems to me if you’re not explicitly moving there, you don’t move there.

I just feel that explicit-ness as a boundary leans too far toward the pedantic. I like to allow for some small flexibility with the way people describe their meaning, even in our nomic’s ruleset.

But I don’t want to criticize; I’m just putting my thoughts out there to be helpful.

Not the best choice of verb, but it’s otherwise fine.

yeah i feel like if there’s any room for interpretation of plain english in our rules, then being on one floor of a tower, and then being on a different floor of the tower… is definitely moving, no stretches necessary
