Text of Adopted Proposals:
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
ID: 7791
Title: Lockout
Adoption index: 1.2
Author: ais523
Co-author(s):
Create a new Power-1 rule, "The Secretary":
The Secretary is an office. The Secretary's weekly report
includes:
a) A list of which persons are on Personal Lockout.
b) The time at which each person on Personal Lockout comes off
Lockout.
c) Whether Agora is on Global Lockout, and if so, when it ends.
Create a new Power-1.2 rule, "Lockout":
There is such a thing as a Lockout Event, which can happen
either to a person or to Agora as a whole. Lockout Events only
happen when a Rule with power 1 or greater explicitly states
that they happen.
A person is on Personal Lockout if a Lockout Event happened to
that person within the past 90 days.
Agora is on Global Lockout if a Lockout Event happened to Agora
as a whole within the past 7 days.
A person is on Lockout if that person is on Personal Lockout,
Agora is on Global Lockout, or both. A person is "off Lockout"
if that person is not on Lockout.

Title: Invoking Lockout
Adoption index: 1.0
Author: ais523
Co-author(s):
Create a new Power-1 rule, "Invoking Lockout":
A player who is not on Lockout can Invoke Lockout by
announcement.
When a player Invokes Lockout, a Lockout Event happens to that
player and a Lockout Event happens to Agora as a whole.

Title: Organizations
Adoption index: 1.2
Author: ais523
Co-author(s): aranea, G.
If there is no rule "Lockout", ignore the rest of this proposal.
Append the following to the rule "The Secretary":
d) A list of all Organizations and their Income.
e) Each player's Expenditure.
The Secretary's monthly report includes:
a) Each Organization's Charter.
Create a new Power-1.2 rule, "Organizations":
An Organization is a type of entity. The following changes are
secured: creating, modifying, or destroying an Organization; and
causing an entity to become an Organization or cease to be an
Organization.
Budget is a switch belonging to (Organization, player) pairs
(i.e. there is one instance of the switch for each combination
of an Organization and a player), tracked by the Secretary,
whose legal values are integers from 0 to 100 inclusive,
defaulting to 0. An Organization's Income is the total value of
all Budget switches for pairs that include that Organization. A
player's Expenditure is the total value of all Budget switches
for pairs that include that player. Changes to Budget are
secured.
A "member" of an Organization is a player for which the pair
consisting of that Organization and that player has a nonzero
Budget.
It is IMPOSSIBLE, by any means, for a player to become a member
of an Organization, or for an organization to be created with a
player as a member, without that player's explicit, willful
consent. This rule takes precedence over any rule that might
make such a change possible.
Create a new Power-1.2 rule, "Organizational Restructuring":
Charter is an Organization switch, tracked by the Secretary in
eir monthly report, whose legal values are texts, and with
default value "An amendment to this Organization is Appropriate
if intent to perform it was announced between 4 and 14 days ago,
and no members of the Organization have publicly objected to it
since."
A change to an instance of a Budget or Charter switch is known
as an "amendment" to the Organization to which that instance of
the switch applies. Each amendment to an Organization is
considered to be either Appropriate or Inappropriate. An
Organization's Charter SHOULD contain a method of determining
the appropriateness of amendments to that Organization.
If a Charter does not specify the appropriateness of an
amendment to its Organization, or if it attempts to specify the
appropriateness of such an amendment but in a way that is
unclear, ambiguous, circular, inconsistent, paradoxical, or that
depends on information that is impossible or unreasonably
difficult to determine, the amendment is Inappropriate;
otherwise, it is Appropriate if and only if the Charter
specifies that it is.
Organizations can be amended as follows:
a) A member of an Organization CAN flip that Organization's
Charter by announcement, if doing so is Appropriate, and that
member is not on Lockout.
b) Any player CAN flip a Budget Switch by announcement, if doing
so is Appropriate and the player is not on Lockout, except
where other rules prevent this.
c) A member of an Organization CAN flip that Organization's
Charter without objection, even if doing so is Inappropriate,
as long as that member is not on Lockout. Players SHOULD only
use this mechanism to recover from situations where the
Charter is underspecified or has unintended effects.
Create a new Power-1.2 rule, "Death and Birth of Organizations":
If an Organization's Income is ever lower than 50, then any
player CAN destroy it by announcement. The Secretary SHALL NOT
allow an Organization to exist with Income below 50 for more
than a week.
If player's Expenditure is 50 or lower, and that player is not
on Lockout, that player CAN create an Organization by
announcement, specifying a name for that Organization that is
unique among Organizations, and a Charter. When an organization
is created that way, its Charter is set to the value that the
player specified, and the Budget switch for that player and
Organization is set to 50.
Notwithstanding the above, a player CANNOT create more than one
Organization in a day, and CANNOT create Organizations while e
is member of an Organization with an Income lower than 50.
Create a new Power-1.2 rule, "Bankruptcy":
While a player's Expenditure exceeds 100, then any player CAN
cause that player to become Bankrupt by announcement. The
Secretary SHALL NOT allow any player's Expenditure to exceed 100
for more than a week.
When a player becomes Bankrupt:
a) All Budget switches for pairs including that player are
flipped to 0.
b) The Secretary CAN, and SHALL in a timely manner, award that
player a Red Card.
c) A Lockout Event happens to that player.
If any entity is an Organization, it ceases to be an Organization.
