here's the first one, the more political one. The second one (later
sometime) is more mathematical.
Proto: On all our houses
Repeal 1688, 1482, and 1030.
[Note: order of things must be considered for this bootstrapping]
Enact the following Rule, entitled "All our houses"
House is a stuck switch for Rules, Proposals, Players,
and CFJs with values Ordinary, Senatorial, Democratic,
and Constitutional. A Player may change eir house at
any time, except a Player may not be Constitutional.
A Proposal may be submitted to any house (default
Ordinary), and adoption depends on the Rules of that
house. A Constitutional Rule is submitted simultaneously
to all houses, and must be adopted by all houses to
take effect.
A non-Constitutional Proposal submitted to a specific
house may only change Rules within that house, following
submission and adoption procedures specified by that
house's rules. If no adoption Rules exist in that house,
or a Constitutional Court finds the Rules of that house
do not allow the adoption of a proposal in reasonable
time, the default procedure for resolving decisions
is followed.
Enact the following Rule, entitled 'Judicial Houses'
A CFJ may be submitted to any house (default Senatorial).
A Constitutional CFJ (also called an "Appeal") convenes
a panel of one player from each house, appointed as
described by the Rules of that house.
A conflict bewteen Rules within a house is resolved
by a CFJ submitted to that house according to the
Rules of that house. If no Rules exist in that house, or
a Constitutional Court finds the Rules of that house
do not allow the resolution of a CFJ in reasonable
time, the default procedure for resolving CFJs
is followed.
If Rules conflict between houses, they can only
be adjudicated by a Constitutional CFJ. In such
cases, Constitional Rules may define methods for
which certain houses have precedence over others
for certain types of Rules. If Constitutional
Rules are otherwise silent, precedence is ordered
as specified by the list of possible houses.
Enact the following Rule, entitled "Primary regulations"
If something is said by the Rules of a house to
be "primarily regulated" by that house, then
that house's rules have precedence over other
houses for that thing. If Rules of two houses
conflict over claiming primary regulation, the
older (lower-Numbered) Rule so claiming shall
have precedence.
The above Rules are all made Constitutional.
Constitutional protections to add later [if this proto
is liked]
1. [Rights and privileges]
2. [If mechanism breaks down, a unaimous vote of
all players can change rules of any house]
3. [If all else fails, a CFJ can enpanel three
players regardless of house to sort things out]
4. [default procedures]
Upon the adoption of this Proposal, [All Rules]
are mapped onto [Houses] as follows:
