Bump. Here's an updated text; all I did was remove the once-per-month
restriction. G., what do you think about submitting this before nch's
and R. Lee's possible victory? I'm happy to pend it (assuming
DracoLotto worked as intended).
Enact the following rule, Charities:
Donation Level is a natural switch for contracts, tracked by the
Notary, with a default of 0 and a maximum of 25. A contract with
nonzero donation level is called a Charity.
The Notary CAN flip a contract's donation level to a non-default
value with 3 Agoran consent. This SHOULD only be done if the
contract's provisions ensure that its funds will be used solely
for the betterment of Agora. Any player CAN flip a contract's
donation level to 0 with Agoran consent.
Whenever a payday occurs, half of each charity's coin holdings
(rounded down) are destroyed, and then each charity earns a
number of coins equal to its donation level.
