Proposal: We need a system

Self Killed—Clucky

Adminned at 24 Oct 2020 21:28:37 UTC

On the “The Mosaic”, add

A column and call it “Points”

And in “Dynastic Rules”, add

a subsection called “Points System”

With the subrules in it being

Each Monk during their “Turn” will be able to gain points depending where place their tile and which conditions it satisfied. Additionally, they will be kept track on the “Points” column on “The Mosaic”

And

Any conditions on “Points System” on placement of the tile on the “The Mosaic” that are satisfied will give or take away points from that Monk on the “Points” column on “The Mosaic”

And

Everyone Monk starts will start out with 0 on “The Mosaic” under the “Point” column and will only be an integer through the Dynasty.

I think this proposal needs a second pass to make it more understandable. What is “On the “The Mosaic”, add” supposed to mean? Generally if you add something to the rules, you need to indicate where in the rules you want to add it not just which rule you want to add it to.

Also there is no concept of “During a Monks turn”. Turns are a resource that Monks spent, but the concept of a Monk’s turn isn’t actually defined for this dynasty.

A column on “The Mosaic” would mean a column on the 20x20 grid? This also creates three unnamed rules.

If you’re not sure how to word a proposal, try copying an existing proposal or rule which does a similar thing - even if you don’t understand why a rule sentence is talking about non-negative integers tracked on a wiki page, or why every proposal that creates a rule says something like “create a new rule called X with the following text”, you can safely assume that players thought that was okay if they voted it through.

[robotabc] If someone votes against their own proposal, as Raven has done here, then it’s taken as them formally withdrawing it (known as a “self-kill”). The proposal will fail, so requires no further voting from other players.

[Kevan] Whoops yeah I noticed about 3 seconds after I hit submit.

It’s easy enough to overlook if the proposer doesn’t say anything when casting the vote.
