If your theory of adoption index being 0 is correct, then the attempt to
create the Rule is INEFFECTIVE because of Rule 2140 ("Power Controls
Mutability").

What happens is that the proposal gets set to Power 4 when being
resolved ("its power is set to the minimum of four and its adoption

minimum of the set {4}, i.e. 4). This makes it possible to get through
arbitrarily high-powered changes with only a simple majority.
Well, it has an adoption index of {"none"} which is different than
having no
adoption index, so what's the minimum of {4,"none"}? It might be
min{4,0} =
0 if you're allowed to translate "none" to 0.
That aside - drat that this was discovered before, I was in the
process of
writing up a quick scam proposal...
oh heck:
I submit the following Proposal, "no power is all powerful", AI="none":
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Create the following Rule, "Supreme Power", Power=4:
G. CAN make arbitrary changes to the gamestate by announcement.
