If we take this route, I think whomever revives and takes the office should
be under an added penalty to stick with the office - "if a player does this,
e must perform all the Astronomor duties with no late duties for at least
60 days".
But overall, I'm not sure that this is an improvement over a straight up
repeal, followed by a simple "re-enact Rules XXX, YYY" if someone wants to
bring it back? This is the second time around for politics with that method
and the re-enactment was easy enough to paste together and vote through.
I wonder if we should make a library for old side-games? (E.g. just a
repo on Agoranomic with the rules for each subgame, so a copy/paste "re-
enact the following rules" from that doc would be straightforward).

We should probably do something about Spaace and Politics, since there’s little
interest in them, but the rules have lots of obligations that are going
unfulfilled. We could repeal those rules, but I thought this could be a nice
solution in case there is interest in reviving the games when people come back.
I submit the following proposal:
Title: Side-Game Suspension Act
AI: 3
Text:
The offices of Astronomor and Clork are made vacant.
All switches defined by or created by the Politics Rules or the Spaace Rules
are flipped to their default values. All entities created by the Politics
Rules or the Spaace Rules are destroyed.
Enact a rule (power=3) entitled “Space & Politics Suspension” with the
following text:
{
1. The Spaace Rules are defined to be Rules 2588, 2589, 2590, 2591, 2592, and
259.
2. The Politics Rules are defined to be Rules 2533, 2534, 2535, 2536, 2537,
2538, 2539, 2540, 2586, 2542, and 2543.
3. Unless Spaace has been Revived, the Spaace Rules are suspended and have no
force or effect.
4. Unless Politics has been Revived, the Politics Rules are suspended and have
no force or effect.
5. A player CAN with 2 support Revive Spaace (unless Spaace has already been
Revived); that player is thereby installed into the office of Astronomor.
6. A player CAN with 2 support Revive Politics (unless Politics has already
been Revived); that player is thereby installed into the office of Clork.
7. This Rule automatically repeals itself when Politics and Spaace have both
been Revived.
8. Any player CAN with Agoran Consent trigger this Rule. If this Rule is
triggered, the following events happen in order: (a) the Politics Rules are
automatically repealed (unless Politics has been Revived), (b) the Spaace Rules
are automatically repealed (unless Spaace has been Revived), and (c) this Rule
is automatically repealed.
