Can we split this up into several rules? On 5/24/07, Roger Hicks <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I hereby submit the following proposal:Nomic Protectorates AI 2 Create a new rule titled "Nomic Protectorates" with Power of 2 and the text: { Whereas Agora, being the superpower of nomics, has an inherent responsibility to lead the nomic world; and whereas Agora desires to encourage growth and promotion of the nomic community, be it hereby known that Agora shall serve as benevolent protector to any nomic which requests such status (hereafter referred to as the Protectorate). In order to become a Protectorate, a nomic must specify in its ruleset that it submits to Agora as its benevolent protector. It also must allow Agora unrestricted access to make changes to its ruleset. A player of said nomic may then cause that nomic to become a Protectorate by announcement to the public forum. A nomic that no longer meets these requirements ceases to be a Protectorate. Agora shall treat a Protectorate in a benevolent fashion, making changes to that nomic's ruleset only for the purpose of assisting that nomic in its growth and enabling its longevity. Agora may only make changes to a Protectorate's ruleset through a Proposal with an Adoption Index of 2 or more, although this does not prohibit changes made to a Protectorate nomic by one or more of its players (or closest equivalent) according to the rules of that Protectorate. The Ambassador is an office; Its holder is Agora's liaison to its Protectorates. The Ambassador's report shall include a listing of Protectorates as well as a list of recent events related to those Protectorates. On a minimum of a monthly basis, the Ambassador shall review each Protectorate to ensure it meets the requirements of a Protectorate. The Ambassador may act on behalf of Agora for an action that is permitted of Agora in the Protectorate's ruleset, with the exception of direct changes to that Protectorate's ruleset as described above. Any Player may, with Agoran consent, require that the Ambassador act or not act in a specified fashion in relation to a Protectorate. } Upon passage of this Proposal, the holder of the Office of Ambassador shall be BobTHJ
