Proposal: With apologies to Christina Aguilera…

Passes 16-0—Ienpw

Adminned at 12 Dec 2009 14:07:21 UTC

Add a dynastic rule entitled “Djinni in a bottle, baby”, as follows:

There exists a Bottle which can contain the Djinn. The Djinn is unable to grant any Wishes while he is inside the Bottle. If anything causes the Djinn to be inside the Bottle, he shall remain there for 24 hours, at which point he shall be outside the Bottle. The Djinn may only ever be inside or outside the Bottle.

The initial state of the Djinn is outside the Bottle.

Potentially useful as a stopgap or delay tactic. It’s up to the rest of you to come up with ways that one might actually accomplish shoving a Djinn into a Bottle, should this Proposal pass.

for  Though I’d prefer a Lamp.

Hmm… maybe you can release the Djinn if he’s currently inside the Bottle, causing you to gain an extra Wish.

Well, I figure the Djinn came OUT of the lamp initially. This Bottle is a different thing. I’m thinking of “I Dream of Jeannie”...

The reason I’d prefer a Lamp is because both the people who are working on headers (Ienpw and Syl) plan to include a lamp.

Meh, either way is fine with me, really. Feel free to propose a “If this rule passes, change all Bottle to Lamp” and I’d probably vote for it. :)
