I think it's fine and elegant to use existing stuff, but the rule is pretty
long already - I'd split it into three rules:
Rule 1:
The Tailor is an office, and the recordkeepor of Ribbons.
Ribbon Ownership is a person switch, tracked by the Tailor in eir
monthly report, whose values are the subsets of the set of types
of Ribbon, defaulting to the empty set. If the rules are amended
to change the types of Ribbon, if a player's Ribbon Ownership is
subsequently illegal, then it is updated by removing all
nonexistent types rather than resetting the entire value to
default.
To "award a person a <Ribbon type>" is to add that type of Ribbon
to that person's Ribbon Ownership. A person "owns a <Ribbon type>"
if that type of Ribbon is an element of eir Ribbon Ownership.
While a person qualifies for a type of Ribbon, any player CAN, by
announcement, award em that type of Ribbon. A person qualifies for
a type of Ribbon if e has earned that type of Ribbon within the
preceding 7 days (including earlier in the same message) and has
not owned that type of Ribbon within the preceding 7 days.
ADD THIS:
Ribbon types CAN only be defined by the Rules (of power X?) There are
two
types of Ribbons: Ordinary [better name?] Ribbons and Relic Ribbons,
By default, a Ribbon is Ordinary.
Rule 2: Ordinary ribbons:
While a person owns all types of Ordinary Ribbon, that person can
Raise a
Banner by announcement. This causes that person to win the game.
That person's Ribbon Ownership becomes the empty set + Relics.
The types of Ordinary Ribbon, and the methods of obtaining them, are
as follows: [...]
Rule 3: Relic ribbons:
Mirror of above.
