Adoption Index: 3.0
Author: Gaelan
Co-author(s):
Amend rule 107 “Initiating Agoran Decisions” by replacing {
The voting period lasts for 7 days. The minimum voting period for a decision
with at least two options is five days.
} with {
Unless specified by another rule with power greater than or equal to 2, the
voting period lasts for 7 days and the minimum voting period for a decision

Create rule "Fast Resolution" (Power 2) {
For the purposes of this rule, an Agoran Decision's Pertinent Information is
the set of all information that the vote collector must use to determine the
result of the decision.
If, for an Agoran Decison:
1. It has enough votes so that its result cannot be changed by any combination
of votes from players that have not yet voted (assuming no new players
register and no votes are withdrawn), and
2. None of its Pertinent Information has changed in the past 24 hours,
Then any player may cause its voting period to end immediately by
announcement.

Title: Agora's To-Do List (v2/ov1)
Adoption index: 1.0
Author: Publius Scribonius Scholasticus
Co-author(s):
Enact a rule titled, "To-Do List", reading: "Any player MAY without two
objection add an item to the to-do list with a specified number of Shinies
associated with it. Any to-do list item must have a clear set of requirements
for completion. The to-do list shall be maintained by the Lister. Any person MAY
complete an item on the to-do list and claim the specified number of Shinies
associated with it by notifying the Lister of their completion of the task. If
the Lister agrees with the claimee, the Lister shall without two objection pay
the claimee the specified number of Shinies from Agora. Any disagreement
regarding completion shall be resolved via a CFJ. After an item has been
completed, the Lister shall remove it from the to-do list."
Enact a rule titled, "The Office of the Lister", reading: "The Lister
is an office; its holder is responsible for maintaining the to-do of
Agora.
The Lister's Weekly report includes the current state of the Agoran
to-do list and any recent events thereof."

Title: Reader's Digest
Adoption index: 1.0
Author: Ienpw III
Co-author(s):
Enact a new rule entitled "Reader's Digest": {
There exists an elected office called Digestive System. "Digestibility" is a
singleton switch tracked by the Digestive System with possible values
"MONTHLY" and "WEEKLY"; the Digestive System can flip this by announcement.
The Digestive System SHALL regularly issue a report which accurately
summarizes the state and activities of Agoranomic throughout the relevant
period. This report need not be comprehensive, but will contain that
information, as assessed by the Digestive System, which would be of the
greatest relevance or importance for a player who had been inattentive to the
state of the nomic during the relevant period. If Digestibility is MONTHLY,
the relevant period is the preceding month; if it is WEEKLY, it is the
preceding week.

Author: Quazie
Co-author(s): G., Gaelan, Aris, 天火狐

{{{
Breaking a publicly-made pledge is a cardable offense.
If a publicly-made pledge says that the creator of a pledge will do something,
without providing a time limit, then e SHALL do so in a timely manner in order

other person or office, without the other party's explicit consent.

Adoption index: 1.0
Author: Gaelan
Co-author(s):
Create a rule “No Sneakiness” with the following text: {
If the rules specify that an action may be performed by sending a message to
a public forum, any attempts to perform the action in a way that is clearly
intended to prevent others from detecting the action (such as by embedding it
in another, longer message) are INEFFECTIVE.

Title: Deregistration and Assets
Adoption index: 2.0
Author: o
Co-author(s): Aris
Amend rule 2485, "You can't take it with you", by changing its title to
"You Can't Take It With You", then by changing the text to read, in
full:
"Heir" is a person switch, tracked by the Registrar, whose value is
either Agora (the default value), or a player other than emself, or
an Organization. A player may flip eir Heir by announcement.
When a player is deregistered, e automatically pays all of eir
Shinies and transfers all of eir Estates to eir Heir, immediately
before deregistration.
Amend rule 2461 ("Death and Birth of Organizations") by changing its
power to 2, then by adding the following paragraph between the
paragraph beginning "If an Organization's Income is ever lower [...]"
and the paragraph beginning "If a player's Expenditure is at most
[...]":
Immediately before an Organization is destroyed, it automatically
pays all of its Shinies to Agora, and transfers all of its Estates
to Agora.

Title: Organization Integration and Stamp Collecting
Adoption index: 1.2
Author: nichdel
Co-author(s):
Amend "Organizations" by replacing the second, third, and fourth
paragraphs with:
Players may become members of an organization by announcement as
specified by the charter of the organization. Players may stop being
a member of an organization by announcement.
An organization may cause any player to stop being a member as
specified in its charter.
[Remove Budget and make org membership more flexible.]
Amend "Death and Birth of Organizations to read, in full:
The Administrative Fee is 5 shinies.
An organization is "In Bad Standing" if it a) has no members or b)
was not created this month and has not paid the Administrative Fee to
Agora.
If an organization is In Bad Standing for more than 7 days, then any
player CAN destroy it by announcement, and the Secretary SHALL do so
in a timely fashion if the situation persists.
Any player CAN create an Organization by announcement by paying the
Administrative Fee to Agora and specifying a name for the
Organization that is unique among Organizations and a Charter.
[Replaces Budget with the Administrative Fee. Combined with giving org's
more control over their membership, it allows for orgs to raise money
and pay the fee in whichever way seems appropriate to them. Also removed
the limits on org membership and creation, because the price should be
a good enough limiters.]
Amend "Organization Restructuring" by removing the text "Budget or", and
removing the paragraph starting with "2.", then changing "3." to "2.".
[Budget cleanup]
Enact a power 1 rule titled "Stamps" with the following text:
Stamps are a type of asset tracked by the Secretary. Each Stamp is
identified by the person or organization that created the Stamp.
Stamps created by the same person or organization are fungible.
The Stamp Price is always 4 times the current Pending List Price.
Once per month any player MAY, by announcement, pay Agora the Stamp
Price, in shinies, to create one Stamp in eir possession. Once per
month any player MAY, by announcement and as specified by the
organization's charter, pay Agora the Stamp Price, in shinies, to
create one Stamp in its possession.
Any player MAY, by announcement, destroy a specified Stamp in eir
possession. Any player MAY, by announcement and as specified by the
organization's charter, destroy a specified Stamp in its possession.
Whenever an organization or player destroys a Stamp in eir
possession, Agora SHALL pay em the Stamp Price.
When a player has in eir possession at least one Stamp created by 15
different players or organizations then e may win by announcement,
specifying each stamp e possesses. When a player does so
successfully, all Stamps in eir possession are destroyed.
[This implements what I described previously. Stamps are both a
speculative currency, with a changing value month-to-month, and a
valuable win condition. Also note that with the org changes, a single
player could create all the Stamps e needs, but it'd be more expensive
than gaining them via trade due to the Administrative fee.]

Notice.
