Title: Crystals v2 Adoption index: 2.0 Author: Aris Co-author(s): Trigon Amend Rule 2562, Facility Ranks, to read as follows: Rank is a secured facility switch tracked by the Cartographor defaulting to 1, with possible values of all positive integers. A player CAN increase the rank of a facility that is at eir location by exactly 1 by announcement by paying any upgrade costs of the facility for that specific rank. A player CAN increase the rank of a facility at any location by N by announcement by destroying N crystals in eir possession. Enact a new rule, entitled "Crystals" (Power = 2.0), with the following text Crystals are a currency, with the Treasuror as their recordkeepor. They may be owned by Agora, persons, and contracts. The following units are defined: - Bronze Crystal, 1 crystal - Silver Crystal, 2 crystals - Gold Crystal, 4 crystals - Platinum Crystal, 8 crystals Amend the rule defining welcome packages by adding as a new item, appropriately numbered, at the end of the list "1 Bronze Crystal". Amend Rule 2483, Economics, by changing the text "The following currencies are defined, and are tracked by the Treasuror." to read "The following currencies, known collectively as economic currencies, are defined, and are tracked by the Treasuror."

A player CAN, by announcement, destroy a crystal in eir possession to create 5 economic currencies of specified, possibly varying type. [I expect the above to be expanded in future.] Amend Rule 2003, Actions in Arcadia, by adding "7. 1 crystal to move to any location which is not Aether." as a new item at the end of the numbered list. Enact a new rule, entitled "Crystal Auctions" (Power = 2.0), with the following text: At the beginning of each month, the Treasuror CAN and SHALL initiate an auction.
