------------------------------------------------------------------------
"The Dragon Corporation" (revision 4)
Parties: Aris, Jason, Falsifian
----------
## Bylaw 1: Definition
This contract is named "the Dragon Corporation". The purpose of the
Dragon Corporation is to earn as much money as possible for its
shareholders.
All other provisions of this contract notwithstanding, this contract
does not permit any entity to act on behalf of any other entity.
Shares of Dragon stock (also known as "shares of DRGN", or, in this
contract, "shares") are a currency whose purpose is to represent
ownership of the Dragon Corporation. An entity which owns at least one
share is known as a shareholder.
If, at any time, the Dragon Corporation or the Lost and Found Department
owns any shares, then those shares are destroyed.
Any person CAN, by announcement, become a party to this contract or
cease to be a party to this contract. A shareholder who is a party to
this contract is known as a member.
Wherever this contract states that an entity becomes a party to this
contract or ceases to be a party to this contract, all parties to this
contract are considered to consent to this change.
## Bylaw 2: Proposals
Any member CAN, by announcement, submit a Corporate Proposal. A
Corporate Proposal must have exactly one of the types defined by this
contract. Thereafter, any member CAN vote FOR or AGAINST that proposal
by announcement, or retract such a vote, which causes the vote to become
null and void. Whenever a member votes, all of eir previous votes on the
same proposal are implicitly retracted.
If a Corporate Proposal was submitted fewer than 21 days ago and has
approval (as defined in other bylaws), and the proposal has not been
applied, then any member may, by announcement, apply the proposal, which
has effects as defined in other bylaws.
Members SHALL NOT submit, vote for, or apply proposals that are
egregiously unfair to other shareholders (such as a proposal which takes
or revokes shares from minority shareholders without just compensation).
## Bylaw 3: Amendment Proposals
An Amendment Proposal is a type of Corporate Proposal. An Amendment
Proposal has approval if it was submitted more than 4 days ago, at least
one member has voted FOR it, and the number of shares owned by members
who have voted FOR it is at least 2 times the number of shares owned by
members who have voted AGAINST it.
When an Amendment Proposal is applied, the following occur:
1. Each party to this contract who has not consented to the application
of the proposal ceases to be a party to this contract. A party who has
voted FOR a proposal consents to the application of that proposal,
unless e has publicly stated otherwise at or after the time at which e
voted FOR it.
2. This contract is modified as described in the proposal.
However, the application of an Amendment Proposal is INEFFECTIVE unless,
in the same message, the entity who applies the proposal also publishes
a text which is labeled as being the text of this contract after the
application. E SHOULD, at that point, publish intent to ratify that text
without objection.
## Bylaw 4: Ordinary Proposals
An Ordinary Proposal is a type of Corporate Proposal. A player is
Unsupportive of an Ordinary Proposal if e eir current vote is AGAINST,
or if e has no current vote and the proposal was submitted fewer than 4
days ago. An Ordinary Proposal has approval if the number of shares
owned by members voting FOR it is greater than the number of shares
owned by Unsupportive players.
When an Ordinary Proposal is applied, assets are created, destroyed,
and/or transferred as described in the proposal; and entities may
create, destroy, and/or transfer assets as permitted in the proposal.
Such permission expires 30 days after the proposal is applied.
After an Ordinary Proposal is applied, the person who applied it SHOULD
publish a description of its effects in a timely fashion, including all
balances of assets defined by this contract which were affected by the
proposal.
## Bylaw 5: Bonds and Banknotes
Perpetual Dragon bonds (hereinafter "bonds") are a currency. Banknotes
are a currency.
At the beginning of each Agoran quarter, each entity is awarded a number
of banknotes equal to the number of bonds that e owns.
If an entity owns a banknote, e CAN redeem the banknote by transferring
1 coin from the Dragon Corporation to emself; the banknote is then
destroyed.
## Bylaw 6: Recordkeeping
If a party to this contract owns more shares than any other party to
this contract, then that party becomes the President of the Dragon
Corporation, if e is not already the President. The former President
SHALL publicly inform the new President of this event in a timely
fashion.
The President is the recordkeepor of all assets defined by this
contract, except those for which this contract specifies a different
recordkeepor.
## Bylaw 7: IPO
Within 90 days after this contract is created, any entity CAN pay a
fee of 10 coins or 10 banknotes to the Dragon Corporation to buy a
share. When e does this, e is awarded 1 share.
Within 90 days after this contract is created, any entity who owns at
least 1 share may sell the share by announcement. When e does this, the
share is destroyed and e is awarded 5 banknotes.

"The Plunder Partnership" (revision 4)
Parties: Cuddlebeam, R. Lee, G., Bögtil, Jason, Falsifian, Aris
----------
🏴☠️ WHO WE BE
The Plunder Partnership is also known as the Plundership. A party to this
contract is known as a Pirate. Any person who is not in Davy Jones’ Locker
can become a Pirate by announcement. Any Pirate can make themselves cease
to be one by announcement.
🏴☠️ NO TATTLE-TALES
Any person who has objected to a transferral of coins to the Plundership
are in Davy Jones’ Locker. A person in Davy Jones’ Locker cannot become a
Pirate, and they immediately cease to be a Pirate if they already were one.
🏴☠️ DOUBLOONS
Doubloons are a destructible asset that can only belong to Pirates. When an
amount of coins is transferred to the Plundership, each Pirate gains an
amount of Doubloons equal to the amount transferred divided by the amount
of Pirates, rounded down. A Pirate with at least 1 Doubloon can transfer 1
coin to themselves from the Plundership. Doing so destroys 1 Doubloon in
their possession.
🏴☠️ PARLEY
Any Pirate can propose a Parley by announcement, which describes amendments
to this contract. If a Parley was proposed at least 2 days ago, at least
2/3rds (rounded up) of all Pirates consent to its contents, and it has not
yet been applied, then any Pirate can apply it by announcement, causing
this contract to be amended according to it.
🏴☠️ Recordkeeping
R. Lee is the recordkeepor of doubloons. Any doubloons that existed before
the addition
of this section are hereby destroyed

"THE AGORAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION (AAA)" (revision 2)
Parties: Jason, R. Lee
Summary:
AAA provides a way for contracts to allow penalties above the Class-2
crime provided by the rules. Accusations are made by parties to opted-in
contracts, assigned to independent Arbitrators by the Head Arbitrator,
and then resolved either by dismissing them or by granting blots to the
perp.
----------
# SECTION 1: INTRODUCTION
This contract is known as the Agoran Arbitration Association, or as AAA.
The purpose of this contract is to provide independent dispute
resolution services for other contracts.
# SECTION 2: OPT-IN
A contract is opted-in to AAA if:
- all of its members are party to this contract;
- it specifies that all of its members consent to being party to this
contract; and,
- it contains phrasing that requires all of its members to be parties to
this contract.
Each party to this contract consents to each other party acting on eir
behalf to create blots when explicitly and unambiguously authorized by
this contract.
Any player CAN become party to this contract by announcement. Any party
to this contract CAN cease being party to this contract if: (1) e is not
party to an opted-in contract and (2) e has not ceased being party to
any contract within the past 14 days.
# SECTION 3: MANAGEMENT
The Head Arbitrator is the person who is party to this contract who has
been party to this contract for the longest continuous time. The Purse
is a natural switch tracked by the Head Arbitrator.
At least once per week, the Head Arbitrator SHALL publish a list of
recently updated Arbitration Cases. In the same message, e CAN, by
announcement, transfer up to N coins from this contract to emself, where
N is the value of the Purse. When doing so, the Purse is decreased by
the number of coins transferred.
# SECTION 4: ARBITRATION CASES
An Arbitration Case is a matter arising from an alleged violation of a
contract. Arbitrator is an untracked switch possessed by Arbitration
Cases with possible values of any party to this contract and
"unassigned" (default). To assign an Arbitration Case to a person is to
flip its Arbitrator to that person. State is an untracked switch
possessed by Arbitration Cases with possible values "open" (default) and
"closed".
The following must be specified when creating an Arbitration Case: the
relevant action, the relevant contract, and the alleged perpetrator.
When an open Arbitration Case is unassigned, the Head Arbitrator CAN by
announcement, and SHALL in a timely fashion, flip its Arbitrator to any
other value. The Arbitrator SHOULD NOT assign an Arbitration Case to a
person who has a manifest interest in the case, whether monetary or
otherwise.
# SECTION 5: CASE INITIATION
A party to this contract CAN, by paying a fee of 5 coins to this
contract, invoke arbitration, specifying:
- an opted-in contract;
- an alleged violation of that contract; and
- the alleged perpetrator (who is a party to that contract or was within
the past 14 days).
When arbitration is invoked, a new open Arbitration Case is created with
the specified action, contract, and perpretrator, and the Purse is
increased by 1.
# SECTION 6: CASE RESOLUTION
This section authorizes parties to act on behalf of other parties to
create blots, and is the only section that does so.
The Punishment Limit of an Arbitration Case is a number of blots
specified by the alleged contract for the relevant violation, or 4
otherwise.
The Arbitrator of an open Arbitration Case CAN, and SHALL in a timely
fashion after being assigned, resolve that Arbitration Case by publicly
doing the following:
- determining whether the action alleged to be a violation occurred; and,
- if the action is determined to have occurred, determining whether it
violated the contract specified at initiation.
In the same message as e closes an Arbitration Case, and if e determined
that the relevant action occurred and was a violation, the Arbitrator
CAN cause the perpetrator to grant emself a specified number of blots
that is between 0 and the Punishment Limit for that case.
In a timely fashion after resolving an Arbitration Case, the Arbitrator
for that case CAN once, by announcement, transfer 4 coins from this
contract to emself.
When an Arbitration Case is resolved, it becomes closed.
# SECTION 7: AMENDMENT
Any party to this contract CAN, by announcement, submit an Amendment
Proposal, specifying certain changes to this contract. Within two weeks
of the creation of an Amendment Proposal, any party can, without
objection from the parties, apply the changes specified by the Amendment
Proposal. When this occurs, the Amendment Proposal ceases to be an
Amendment Proposal and is destroyed.

"Dragon QuickExchange" (initial revision)
Parties: Falsifian, R. Lee
----------
-- Overview --
In a hurry to convert a couple of Cards? This contract permits exchange
of Cards for Products at a reasonable rate within a single message.
Players can also make a profit by doing card-to-product conversions for
this contract.
-- Basic use --
If this contract owns at least 2 of a type of Product, any player CAN
pay 1 of the corresponding Card to this contract to take 2 of that
Product from this contract.
-- Advanced use --
Victory Credits, Justice Credits, Legislative Credits and Voting Credits
are liquid currencies backed by this contract.
The Allowed Conversions are as follows:
* 1 Card to 100 Credits
* 47 Credits to 1 Product
* 1 Product to 44 Credits
* 100 Credits to 1 Card
An Allowed Conversion of X to Y is satisfiable if Y is in Credits or
this contract owns at least Y. If an Allowed Conversion is satisfiable,
any player CAN pay a fee of X to this contract to be granted Y (if Y is
credits) or to take Y from this contract (otherwise).
Whenever this contract owns Credits and the above sequence is not in
progress, the Credits are destroyed.
When Cards and Products are destroyed due to a VP win, all Credits are
destroyed as well.
-- Management --
Any player CAN join or leave this contract by announcement.
Any player CAN by announcement transfer assets from this contract to the
Dragon Corporation, if explicitly permitted by the Dragon Corporation's
text.
If an Amendment Proposal for the Dragon Corporation is adopted (as
specified by the Dragon Corporation text) and specifies changes to this
contract, then first any parties to this contract who did not consent to
those changes ceases to be a party, and then the changes are applied.

"Obstruction" (initial revision)
Parties: omd
----------
omd consents, assents to, wants to, and does automatically amend this
contract by prepending the Secret Word, each time any of the following
occur:
- A contract other than this one is created or amended.
- Any player is exiled.
- Any player receives a Welcome Package.
If omd was wearing a hat at the time this contract was created, then the
Secret Word is "Hello". Otherwise, it is "Goodbye".
[This is an attempt to exploit the following provision:
Rules to the contrary notwithstanding, any change that would cause
the full provisions or parties of a contract to become publicly
unavailable is canceled and does not take effect.
It's based on a discussion on Discord which seemed to conclude that
consent is not just a condition for modifying contracts but the
mechanism for it, under the relevant clause of Rule 1742:
A contract may be modified,
including by changing the set of parties, with the consent of all
existing parties.
Note that Rule 1742 does not provide any other mechanism, so if consent
is not a mechanism, amending and terminating contracts is probably
impossible by Rule 2125.
If consent is a mechanism, Rule 2519 item 2 (and to some extent item 4)
suggests that contracts can trigger it automatically.
Whether this actually succeeds at blocking actions depends, I suppose,
on how you define "change", "cause", and "unambiguously".]

"SNOCS (Simple, No-Opportunity-Cost Sets)" (initial revision)
Parties: omd, ATMunn, R. Lee, Gaelan
----------
Pooling Cards refers to the following procedure:
1. A party collects 4 Cards of the same type as follows:
E nominates a total of 4 Cards of the same type in any party's
possession,
which must include at least 1 of eir own Cards.
Then e acts on behalf of the owners of those Cards (except emself) to
transfer the Cards from them to emself.
2. E pays those 4 Cards as a set to get 10 Products.
3. E distributes the just-earned Products evenly as follows:
If the 4 Cards consisted of 2 from em and 2 from a single other party,
then e transfers 5 of the Products to that other party for a truly even
distribution.
Otherwise, e transfers 2 of the Products to the original owner of
each of
the Cards, for a total of 8 Products. As for the remaining 2
Products, e
transfers each to the original owner of a random one of the Cards.
For the purposes of the above paragraph, to transfer Products to
oneself is
to do nothing.
The random choice shall be made following the guidelines in Rule 2505.
Any party CAN at any time Pool Cards.
- The other parties consent to that party acting on behalf of them as
specified in the procedure, as long as (a) e attempts to perform all
actions
in the procedure, in order, in a single message; (b) e does not
intersperse
them with any other attempted actions; (c) in that message e labels the
attempted actions as an attempt to Pool Cards, and (d) all of the
actions
would be successful assuming the aforementioned consent is given.
Any player CAN join the contract by announcement; any party CAN leave the
contract by announcement. Any party CAN remove another party from the
contract
without objection. Each party consents to the aforementioned membership
changes.

A party to this contract is also known as a Platonic Pirate. Any player
who is not currently Marked can join this contract by announcement. Any

coins e gave emself in the earlier step). As long as this constraint
is met, e may choose who gets what assets.
This contract may be amended by a Platonic Pirate with the consent of
2/3rds (rounded up) of all Platonic Pirates.

"The Contract Awards: The Contract" (initial revision)
Parties: ATMunn
----------
Contract Points are a fixed, indestructible currency with ownership
restricted to persons, tracked by the Notary. Once per week, the Notary
SHOULD publish a list of all Contract Point balances.
To award a gold medal to a person is to cause em to earn 3 Contract
Points; to award a silver medal to a person is to cause em to earn 2
Contract Points; and to award a bronze medal to a person is to cause em
to earn 1 Contract Point.
If e has not done so already in the current week, the Notary CAN award
gold, silver, and bronze medals. E SHALL NOT do so except in accordance
with the following set of guidelines:
1. There are three award categories: Participation, Popularity, and
Opulence.
2. The Participation Award shall be given to the persons who are party
to the greatest number of contracts.
3. The Popularity Award shall be given to the persons who are creators
of contracts with the greatest numbers of parties.
4. The Opulence Award shall be given to the persons who are creators of
contracts with the greatest number of coins.
5. In each category, a gold medal shall be awarded to the single person
who came in first place; a silver medal shall be awarded to the single
person who came in second place; and a bronze medal shall be awarded to
the single person who came in third place.
6. If two or more players would qualify for a gold, silver, or bronze
medal in a particular category, no medal of that type shall be awarded
in that category.
The Notary is ENCOURAGED to publish the list of Contract Point balances
and award medals soon after e publishes eir weekly report.
If any person has at least 30 Contract Points, the Notary SHOULD award
em the Terms of Service Patent Title. Unless the Notary deems that a
particular person has created an exceptionally outstanding contract
worthy of bypassing this system, e SHOULD NOT award any player the Terms
of Service Patent Title for reasons outside of this contract.
When a person is awarded the Terms of Service Patent Title, all of eir
Contract Points are destroyed.
Any player CAN become a party, or cease to be a party, to this contract
by announcement.

"The Agoran Underground Betting Ring" (initial revision)
Parties: Gaelan
----------
Title: The Agoran Underground Betting Ring
Any player may become a member of this contract by announcement. Any
person who is not the Ringleader or the Initiator or Challengor of a bet
may leave this contract by announcement.
The Ringleador is {Gaelan}. Any member may amend this contract by
replacing the part of this paragraph in curly braces with the name of
another member of this contract ("the new Ringleador"), provided that
both the current Ringleader and new Ringleador consent to this
amendment. The text in curly braces shall not be construed to do
anything other than identify a member of this contract as the
Ringleador, nor may this contract be amended to cause the curly braces
to contain text that attempts to override this sentence.
A bet is an entity with the following attributes:
- a claim (a statement, or a salted cryptographic hash of a statement)
- a deadline (a description of a specific point in time, such that any
player can reasonably and easily determine if that time has passed,
such as "August 1" or "when Proposal 1234 is resolved")
- a wager (a natural number of coins)
- Initiator (a member of this contract)
Challengor is a bet switch, tracked by the Ringleador, with possible
values of null or any member of this contract and default value null. If
a bet's Challengor switch is set to a person, that person is said to be
the bet's Challengor. If a bet's Challengor switch is set to null, that
bet is said to be unaccepted.
Any member can create a bet by specifying its claim, deadline, and
wager, and transferring a number of coins equal to its wager to this
contract. This person becomes the bet's Initiator.
Any member CAN accept an unaccepted bet by transferring a number of
coins equal to its wager to this contract and flipping its Challenger
switch to emself.
An unaccepted bet's Initiator CAN, by announcement, destroy it and
transfer a number of coins equal to its wager to emself.
If a bet's deadline has passed, and its claim (or the plaintext of its
claim, if it the claim was a cryptographic hash) is true, the bet's
Initiator CAN, by announcement, destroy it and transfer a number of
coins equal to twice its wager to emself.
If a bet's deadline has passed, and its claim (or the plaintext of its
claim, if it the claim was a cryptographic hash) is false or its truth
is indeterminate, the bet's Challengor CAN, by announcement, destroy it
and transfer a number of coins equal to twice its wager to emself.
The Ringleador's SHALL publish a weekly report containing the attributes
of each bet and the values of all Challengor switches.

-- Joining and leaving --
Parties to this contract are called Reportors.
Any person CAN become a party to this contract by publicly consenting.
Any person CAN cease to be a party by announcement, unless e owns the
Weekly Assignment, or is responsible for publishing a report in the
current week and has not done so.
-- Assignment --
The Weekly Assignment is a unique indestructible asset which can be
owned by players and this contract. If a non-player owns it, then any
player CAN transfer it to emself by announcement. If a player owns it, e
CAN transfer it to this contract by annoucement, but e CANNOT transfer
it to another player. If the owner is not otherwise determined, this
contract owns the Weekly Assignment.
At the end of each week, the Weekly Assignment is transferred to this
contract. The player (if any) who owned the Weekly Assignment
immediately before that happened is assigned to that week that is
ending.
If a person is Assigned to a week, then e SHALL publish a Weekly Report
during the following week, summarizing notable events for the Assigned
week. Notability, and what must be included in a summary, are at the
author's discretion. (If this becomes a problem, we can sort it out
later.)
-- Payment --
Credits are a currency. If a player is Assigned to a week, then the
first time e publishes a Weekly Report for that week e is granted one
credit. (No time limit for payment; late is better than never.)
Whenever a player owns a Credit and this contract owns at least 5
Boatloads of Coins, that player CAN transfer 5 Boatloads of Coins from
this contract to emself by announcement. When e does so, one of eir
Credits is destroyed.
The Editor is the recordkeepor for Credits. The player Assigned to the
previous week is the recordkeepor for Credits, or Falsifian if nobody is
Assigned.
-- Amendment --
Any Reportor can propose an amendment to this contract by announcement.

"Team Margaux" (revision 2)
Parties: Gaelan, Nathan, R. Lee, shelvacu, Cuddlebeam
----------
Name: Team Margaux
Parties: Gaelan
Any player may become a party to this contract. Any player other than
Gaelan may cease to be a party to this contract.
Any party may transfer coins to this contract. A person's contribution
is the total number of coins they have transferred to this contract. A
person's share is eir contribution, divided by the total number of coins
transferred to this contract.
Whenever this contract has more coins than the current highest bid on
the August 2020 zombie auction, Gaelan SHALL within 24 hours, and any
party may act on Gaelan's behalf to, place a bid of the number of coins
held by this contract. For the avoidance of doubt, another player acting
on Gaelan's behalf to perform this actions satisfies Gaelan's obligation
to do so.
When the August 2020 zombie auction ends, if Gaelan is an awardee of a
lot, e SHALL within a timely fashion, and any party may act on eir
behalf to perform the following process:
- transfer all coins held by this contract to emself (which e MAY do
only as part of this process)
- pay a fee of that many coins to transfer the corresponding talisman to
emself
- act on behalf of the zombie corresponding to said talisman to transfer
all of the zombie's coins to Gaelan
- transfer to each party a number of coins equal to the number
transferred from the zombie, multiplied by eir share, rounded down
(instead of transferring assets to emself, Gaelan may do nothing)
After the August 2020 zombie auction ends, if Gaelan is not the awardee
of a lot, any party may transfer a number of coins equal to eir
contribution from this contract to emself.
Gaelan may destroy this contract by announcement if it holds no assets
and e has fulfilled all of eir obligations under this contract.

"The Splat Market" (revision 1)
Parties: Gaelan, ATMunn, nix
----------
Any player may become a party to this contract. Any party may cease to
be a party to this contract; upon a player ceasing to be a party (by any
mechanism), all of eir orders are destroyed.
Any party may amend this contract with the consent of a simple majority
of parties. Upon doing so (and without any of the new provisions
becoming binding upon em), any players who did not consent cease to be
parties. Players making amendments SHOULD wait to allow all interested
parties to indicate eir consent.
An order is an entity with the following properties:
- currency (any non-fixed currency that is not the official currency of
Agora)
- direction (buy or sell)
- owner (a player)
- a price (a number of instances of the official currency of Agora)
A buy order is an order with a direction of buy, and a sell order is an
order with a direction of sell. A player's orders are the orders where
the owner is that player.
Parties can create orders with emself as the owner, by announcement,
specifying all other properties. Parties can destroy eir orders by
announcement.
For each (currency, direction) pair, there is an "active order." For buy
orders, this is the order with that currency and the highest price. For
sell orders, this is the order with that currency and the lowest price.
In either case, if multiple orders have the same price, the oldest order
is the sell order.
For any given currency, it is IMPOSSIBLE to create a sell order with a
price lower than the active buy order, and IMPOSSIBLE to create a buy
order with a price higher than the active sell order.
To perform a set of actions atomically is to preform them, in order, in
the same message, with no intervening actions. Where this contract
permits players to perform actions as part of an atomic set, it permits
doing so only if all actions in the set would be EFFECTIVE.
Any player CAN perform the following actions atomically: {
Transfer a number of instances of Agora's official currency equal to an
active sell order's price to that order's owner.
Act on that order's owner's behalf to transfer one instance of the
order's currency to emself.
Destroy that order.
}
"Executing N of <owner>'s sell orders for <currency type> at <price>"
(or similar language) is shorthand for completing the above process, N
times, with the specified attributes.
Any player CAN perform the following actions atomically: {
Transfer or grant one instance of an active buy order's currency to
that order's owner.
Act on that order's owner's behalf to transfer a number of instances of
Agora's official currency equal to that order's price to emself.
Destroy that order.
}
"Executing N of <owner>'s buy orders for <currency type> at <price>" (or
similar language) is shorthand for completing the above process, N
times, with the specified attributes. Unless otherwise specified, it is
assumed that the executor does so by transferring assets, not granting them.
If either of the above sets of actions would be IMPOSSIBLE due to the
active order's owner having an insufficient currency balance, any player
CAN destroy the active order by announcement.
Gaelan SHALL publish a weekly report listing the properties of each
order, and the relative age (i.e. which orders are older, but not
necessarily any specific dates) of any orders with the same currency,
direction, and price.

"The Supertask Experiment" (initial revision)
Parties: Nathan
----------
Only Nathan may be a party to this contract. Nathan may not destroy this
contract. All actions in this contract happen under a "I say, I do,
therefore it happens" basis, meaning that all actions are taken
instantly, without implicitly advancing time. As the rules do not
prohibit it, in this contract, multiple actions may happen at the same
time. Time does not advance during this contract's effects unless
explicitly stated by this contract or the rules. This contract is
capable of owning assets.
For the purposes of this contract, an instant is defined to be a
specific moment in time, with infinite instants in any given division or
unit of time. An example of an instant would be precisely 1.87856
seconds after midnight on July 12, 1983. Any measurement of precise time
can be understood to be an instant. An instant can not cover more than a
single instance of precise time. For example, an instant can not be the
entirety of the second after midnight on July 12, 1983, but precisely
one second after midnight on July 12, 1983 can be understood to be an
instant.
Multiple actions can resolve in the same instant. If an action starts
and resolves in the same instant, that action takes no time. Actions
that resolve in the same instant can be dependent upon prior actions in
that instant. For example, in the same announcement, one can transfer
coins from a locker or similar contract to themselves, and then perform
an action with those coins, both of those actions happening in the same
instant despite the second action being dependent on the first one.
Actions dependent on another action can be started and resolved at the
same instant as the action it is dependent on without passing time.
This contract can perform any number of, or every, action(s) on the
behalf of any party to this contract. This contract can consent to any
number of, or every, action(s) on the behalf of any party to this
contract.
This contract and any parties to this contract consent to every transfer
of Dock assets.
A Dock asset is an asset with default owner Nathan. The class of
entities which can own a Dock asset is restricted to Nathan and this
contract. If the ownership of a Dock asset were to be transferred to the
Lost and Found Department, ownership is instead transferred to whoever
most recently had the Dock Asset, not including the Lost and Found
Department. A Dock asset can be transferred to this contract or any
party to this contract. Consent of parties to this contract or the
consent of this contract itself is not needed to transfer a Dock asset
to this contract or to parties of this contract. This contract can
create a Dock asset at any instant.
This contract creates one Dock asset.
If, at any instant, Nathan owns any given Dock asset, this contract
will, on eir behalf, transfer that Dock asset to this contract.
If, at any instant, this contract owns any given Dock asset, this
contract will transfer that Dock asset to Nathan.

This contract and any parties to this contract consent to every transfer

A Dock asset is an asset with default owner Nathan. The class of
entities which can own a Dock asset is restricted to Nathan and this
contract. If the ownership of a Dock asset were to be transferred to the
Lost and Found Department, ownership is instead transferred to whoever
most recently had the Dock Asset, not including the Lost and Found
Department. A Dock asset can be transferred to this contract or any
party to this contract. Consent of parties to this contract or the
consent of this contract itself is not needed to transfer a Dock asset
to this contract or to parties of this contract. This contract can
create a Dock asset at any instant.
Under rule 2577, "An asset generally CAN be transferred (syn. given) by
announcement by its owner to another entity, subject to modification by
its backing document". This backing document for Dock assets specifies
that a Dock asset is transferred, without announcement, between any
players that consent to this contract and this contract if any non-zero
number of two conditions are met, with the specific transfer stated
after the condition. These conditions are:
1. If a dock asset is owned by Nathan. The Dock asset is transferred
from Nathan to this contract.
2. If a dock asset is owned by this contract. The Dock asset is
transferred from Nathan to this contract.
This contract creates one Dock asset.

"Food Industry Association of Agora" (revision 1)
Parties: Aris, Trigon, ATMunn, nix, Cuddlebeam
----------
This contract shall be known as the Food Industry Association of Agora.
It is the purpose of this contract to maintain a record of the authorized
producers of each type of food. A member of a contract is known as
the Director. This is by default the member who first joined the contract
earliest, but e can be removed and a new director selected by announcement,
provided two thirds of the members consent.
The Product List contains the authorized backing contract for each
type of foodstuff. To qualify:
- the creator of the contract should not have created any other foodstuff
contract within the same Agoran week
- the contract should guarantee that the quantity of the foodstuff
be reasonably limited
The Director can modify the Product List by announcement; any member
can modify it by announcement provided a majority of members consent.
The Product List cannot have any game effect beyond listing
the products each contract is authorized to back; any change to the list
which could plausibly be interpreted to give it another effect is canceled
and does not occur.
Players may join or leave this contract by announcement; parties to this
contract are known as members. This contract may be amended with
2 Agoran consent, where only members are eligible to support or object. When
an amendment occurs (other than to change the Product List, within the
bounds
set for changes of the Product List), every member who did not consent
is ejected from the contract.
The Product List:
- “Humble Agoran Farming” is authorized to back potatoes.
- "The Orchard" is authorized to back culinary fruits.
