BUS: Correcting Our History [attn. Herald]

2021-01-17 Thread Aris Merchant via agora-business
I petition the Herald to update the scroll to remedy the following problems:

1. The description for the Order of the Lemming is in error. There
were three separate repeal proposals, "Low-hanging Fruit" (P7610),
"Just Not Rights" (P7614), and "Mostly Simple Judging v2.3" (P7616)
[1]. Incidentally, G. wrote all of them. The problem is that those
proposals ranged from December 2013 to January 2014 [2]. The current
wording implies one proposal in January 2014.

2. The description for the Badge of the Great Agoran Revival doesn't
adequately summarize the reason why being an Agoran person in May 2017
was significant enough to deserve a badge. The answer, of course, is
that Agora nearly died in 2016, with little activity on the lists for
months, before booming back to life in 2017 [3]. I request that the
description be changed to "awarded to Agoran persons from May 2017,
when a major gameplay surge took place after a long period of
inactivity", or something similar. I will also note that I made this
request previously [4] and the Herald at the time even agreed [5], but
it appears to have been lost in the paper shuffling by the time of the
next Scroll, which was published by a new Herald [6].

[my fault, really - my deadline for assigning this case was the day before
the holiday started, so was kind of stuck there.  But on discord ATMunn
just mentioned I should go ahead and reassign it, with eir apologies
(which was a R2492-compliant apology, since it needn't be public].


The below CFJ is 3892.  I assign it to Murphy.

There's been plenty of time for anyone to bring up knowledge of another
message to the contrary, yet no one has, and "altitude" currently has no
in-game definition to clash with the ordinary-language concept of
"altitude sent from" intended here. I judge TRUE.
