5-0. Reached Quorum.—Chronos

Add another commodity to the Ruleset:

Natural Beauty: What people like to look at.


Revise the third paragraph of Production, so it reads:

Whenever a Territory is created, a DICE10 shall be rolled for each of the Commodities listed in the Ruleset save Natural Beauty. The resulting numbers are the Production capacity of the newly created Territory for each of the Commodities. If the Territory being created is a Homeland, a DICE15 shall be rolled instead. At any time, the production capacity of Natural Beauty shall be 24 - P for homelands, and 20 - P for other territories, where P is the sum of the production capacities of other commodities; this value shall change if the production capacity of the territory changes for any reason, such as the construction of a building.  The production capacities for Natural Beauty, and the stocks of it held by a Country can be negative numbers.


And add a Sub-Rule to rule Market Making entitled Beauty Market, with the text:

If a Country, other than the Hegemonist, holds a negative amount of Natural Beauty, the Hegemonist will issue a FORCED BUY order in eir behalf to make up the shortfall. The BUY order will be for the exact amount of Natural Beauty, such the issuing country has 0 Natural Beauty after its closing, and shall be issued at the BUY price listed in the most recent Market Position. A Forced Buy order for Natural Beauty issued this way may be closed even if the Hegemonist has not enough Stock of Natural Beauty as to comply with it. The Closing of such a order may result with the Hegemonist holding a negative amount of Natural Beauty.

At any time, if the Hegemonist holds a negative stock of Natural beauty and any other Country holds a positive Stock of it, e shall issue a FORCED SELL Market Order in the behalf of the Country with the most stock of Natural Beauty. This forced SELL shall list the exact amount the Hegemonist would need to hold a stock of 0 Natural Beauty, or the stock held by the issuing Country, whichever is lower, and shall be issued at the SELL price listed in the most recent Market Position. The Hegemonist shall issue such orders until eir stock of Natural Beauty is non-negative or no other Country has a positive stock of Natural Beauty.

A FORCED BUY order will be processed before any normal Market Orders, but after FORCED SELL orders, regardless of the chronological ordering of their posts.
