I'd go with solution 2, but modified. What if we made it so that each
facility could fit into (0 or more) "categories", and defined Production
and Processing as categories. That way, we could extend it later without
dealing with an exponential increase in the number of types. It also leave
flexibility if we want to do 3 later.

Sure, definitely make one!  That would be a new award.  Those rewards (again, 
history) were specifically granted to anyone who put the indicated amount of 
time in, and the titles reflect that.  As Herald, you can select a different
standard to name a different Title for "Good Service" and award it using the
existing method. Just don't delete the old ones.

First, it's a good and fun perk to add to offices that are a lot of gruntwork.

Second, for a long time, the Herald wasn't allowed to make up eir own patent
titles. Only the defined ones could be awarded, and those were awarded by 
different offices.  It was quite fun to have a set of titles (like win 
conditions) that were for set, specific things a person could aspire towards, 
but weren't necessarily competitive in the way that "winning" is.  

Ribbons have soaked up some of those kinds of achievements, but aren't 
particularly historical.

The current system has ultimate flexibility, but it's entirely up to the 
Herald's whim.  That doesn't make it anything other than a random "here ya
go", and while that's been the case the Heralds haven't been consistent about
rewarding criteria and Patent Title awards in general have definitely become
less awarded and less awarding.

I think trying out both methods at once would be nice.

You can't "do away" with them in the sense that they're awarded Patent

and therefore tracked.  You could re-categorize them I suppose.

But every so often, like every couple years, someone (usually ADoP or

Re: DIS: Grey Land and the Fountain

2018-03-01 Thread Kenyon Prater
I ran into a problem that I figured I'd share and ask for input.

"Asset Generation with Facilities" specifies that "Each facility is either
a production facility or processing facility". The draft up there specifies
that a fountain is a facility, but that it neither produces nor processes
anything. There are a couple solutions that I see:

1) A fountain is a production facility that produces nothing, or a
processing facility that processes nothing. Easy, kinda a hack, but it'll
work.
2) Modify "Asset Generation with Facilities" so facilities can have a type
of any element in {None, Production, Processing, Production & Processing},
and fountains are type None.
3) Define "buildings" as a superset/superclass of facilities, move the
shared rules to new rules about Buildings, and have fountain and facility
be types of buildings with their own specific sub-rules. Easily the most
flexible, but requires a fairly significant refactor, so it only really
seems worth it if this is going to be a recurring problem. If the fountain
is the only non-facility-facility we add, we might as well go with 1 or 2.
If we're adding a ton of non-production buildings (arenas, houses, roads,
whatever) then this might be worth it?

Not sure if there's a smarter solution here, but I just wanted to get
feedback to see if people were OK with 1 or if they thought 2 and 3 were
better, or if there's another option I didn't consider.

Thanks,

Your phrasing sounds like an obligation to give the title to all deserving 
players. Maybe something like this?

The following titles CAN be awarded to any player by the holders of the listed 
offices with 2 Support. They SHOULD only be given to players that meet the 
qualifications listed. 

- Scamster (Referee): any Player who has shown great enthusiasm, persistence, 
or skill in the perpetrating of scams.

Good thinking.  Definitely will add SHOULDS to the standards for each,
but probably good to say additionally in the rule that whether a player
meets those standards is a political question not a judicial one (i.e.
if it gets the right support/consent, it qualifies).

Here's the old standard for scamster as an example:
   (a)  Scamster, which may be awarded to any Player who has shown
great enthusiasm, persistence, or skill in the perpetrating
of scams.  
I'd change "may be" to SHOULD here and add the "CAN with support level."

Maybe to avoid redundancy, you could term these facilities "gray
facilities". Or even make a rule that says "X facilities" where X is a
land type in case we decide to restrict the land types some facilities
can be on in the future.

Other things we need to do:

Make Agora the auctioneer for Land Auctions.

Remove the last paragraph of the Facilities rule and replace it with
"Facilities always have the same owner as their parent land unit" or
smth.

Add a destruction clause to the Facilities rule. Also maybe a
rank-down the facilities clause.

Also, the Land Transfiguration rule may be a bit broken. Make it say
"At the beginning of the second Eastman week of each month, the
following actions occur. The Cartographor SHALL report these changes
in a timely fashion."

DIS: proto: patent award codification

2018-03-01 Thread Kerim Aydin



We used to have more Patent Titles named in the rules, and different
officers were allowed to award them under certain conditions.  We
dropped that on the grounds that the Herald could generically award
any of them when it seemed appropriate, but it meant the reasons for
some of the awards (e.g. Long Service) got lost from memory.

Should we re-implement?  E.g.

The ADoP CAN award X months long service for X=3,6,9,12 when a
person without that title has served in a single office continuously
for that length of time.

The Reportor (alt: Herald) CAN award Bard w/2 support to someone who 
publishes certain quantities of poems.

The Referee CAN award Scamster w/2 support to someone who performs
a major scam.

The Arbitor CAN award the title Sage w/2 support to someone who 
delivers a particularly brilliant judgement.

   Etc.

You can't "do away" with them in the sense that they're awarded Patent Titles
and therefore tracked.  You could re-categorize them I suppose.

But every so often, like every couple years, someone (usually ADoP or Herald)
says "hey we haven't used that in a while" and figures out who might deserve
one and awards it.  It's been about that long so we're due (I know aranea was
from the last time we did this only a couple years ago I think).

We could also bring back a mechanism that lets the ADoP award these directly...

I don't get that first part.

The "spoiling fun" cards are there, the red one I got and then the counter
card you got (gmail screwed with the formatting somehow, first time I do
this... But aside from awkward spacing, its there:):

And there was nothing in "recent events" during December and January, as
per the last report. But that doesn't make sense with "Nichdel Dec 6, 2017
PCI[2] [3]"...
I'll look into that.

Sorry, I was just catching the lack of that stuff in the top line
("recent events") which doesn't ratify.  Was puzzled by the line
between "previous report" and "last report" not sure the difference
there?  No biggie just the format fooled me.
