Proposal: Veni veni venias

Withdrawn and therefore failed -SingularByte

Adminned at 20 Mar 2023 17:39:42 UTC

Create a new dynastic rule named “The End” with the following body:

Each Runner has a Chance, which is a publicly tracked value defaulting to False.

If the current date and time is on or after the 10th of April, 00:00:01 UTC, 2023, then the game is in Endgame. While the game is in Endgame, the Gatemaster may not Load a New Stratum and the Location of Runners whose Location is set to blank cannot be changed.

If the game is in Endgame and they haven’t done so already, the Gatemaster should, at their earliest convenience, Load the Final Game, which is an atomic action with the following steps:
* Set the Location of all Runners whose Chance is set to True to A1
* Blank the Location of all Runners whose Chance is set to False

A Runner has achieved victory when their Chance is set to Fulfilled.

In the rule Disks, add a new entry to the list of Disks:

| mark.c || 5 || Set your Chance to True

Creating some semblance of a wincon. I’ve left the final game action barebones so that we can maybe flesh it out a bit more later

Honestly, I’m not sure I’m too keen on this one. It would not feel good to be fully active during the dynasty, only to suddenly lose the chance to even get into the ending purely due to the disk spawning in the wrong place.

If there’s going to be an endgame, it should be more than a dice roll.

What’s the intention here? That the final level is played out as a battle between the players who have run mark.c at any point in the dynasty, and “Fulfilled” is left undefined for now?

@Kevan not a battle per se, but the intention is a final game of sorts whose winner achieves victory

might actually withdraw this though and propose something not based as much on RNG

I really don’t want to put my thumb on the scale of a wincon Proposal, other than posting my own Proposal, so I won’t be voting on this one. It’s up to the Runners to decide this.
