{Reenact rule 2166, Assets (Power = 2), with the folowing text:
An asset is an entity defined as such by a rule (hereafter its backing
document), and existing solely because its backing document defines its
existence.
Each asset has exactly one owner. If an asset would otherwise
lack an owner, it is owned by the Lost and Found Department. If
an asset's backing document restricts its ownership to a class
of entities, then that asset CANNOT be gained by or transferred
to an entity outside that class, and is destroyed if it is owned
by an entity outside that class (except for the Lost and Found
Department, in which case any player CAN transfer or destroy it
without objection).
The recordkeepor of a class of assets is the entity (if any)
defined as such by, and bound by, its backing document. That
entity's report includes a list of all instances of that class
and their owners. This portion of that entity's report is
self-ratifying.
An asset generally CAN be destroyed by its owner by
announcement, and an asset owned by the Lost and Found
Department generally CAN be destroyed by its recordkeepor by
announcement, subject to modification by its backing document.
To "lose" an asset is to have it destroyed from one's
possession; to "revoke" an asset from an entity is to destroy it
from that entity's possession.
An asset generally CAN be transferred (syn. payed) by its owner to another
entity by announcement, subject to modification by its backing
document. A fixed asset is one defined as such by its backing
document, and CANNOT be transferred; any other asset is liquid.
A currency is a class of asset defined as such by its backing
document. Instances of a currency with the same owner are
fungible.
Assets are always public.
Change the rule "Economics" to read in full:
Shinies (sg. shiny) are a liquid currency, and the official currency of Agora.
They may be owned by Agora, any player, or any organization. The Secretary is
the recordkeepor for Shinies.
The Secretary CAN cause Agora to pay any player or organization by
announcement if doing so is specified by a rule.
The balance of an entity is the number of Shinies that entity possesses. If a
rule or proposal attempts to increase or the balance of an entity without
specifying a source or destination, then the Shinies are created or
destroyed.
Amend Rule 2459, Organizations, by adding as a paragraph at the end:
A member of an Organization can perform any action the rules authorize that
Organization to perform, if the Organization's charter states that doing so
is Appropriate.}
See the "Services rendered" thread for justification and explanation.
