This would undo EFDoA; you should to update the asset generation rule text
in your proposal to reflect that it was amended by EFDoA:

replace the first item on the list with the following two items,
renumbering the other items
appropriately:

  1. if the facility is built on unconserved Public Land, none.

  2. if the facility is built on preserved Public Land and less than four
days
  have passed since assets were created in the facility most recently, e
must
  not have taken any assets from the inventory of another facility located
on
  a preserved Land Unit within this Agoran week.

The second bid cancels the first, so sure?

   If a person submits a bid on an Auction, all bids previously placed

DIS: Grey Land and the Fountain V2

2018-04-03 Thread Kenyon Prater
Title: Gray Land and the Fountain
Co-authors: Aris, Cuddle Beam, Gaelan, Trigon
AI: 2.0
Contents: {

Amend "Land Types" (Power=2.0):
Replace "whose values are "Black", "White", and "Aether"", with the
text "whose values are "Black", "White", "Gray", and "Aether""

Create a new rule "Facility Categories", (Power=2.0):
A facility's Category is a switch whose possible values are
“Production”, “Processing”, “Monument”, and “Miscellaneous”.  An “x
facility”, where x is a Category, refers to a facility that has
Category switch set to x.

Amend "Asset Generation with Facilities" (Power=2.0) to read the following:
When an Production or Processing facility creates assets, the assets
are added to the facility's possession. The rule that creates an
Production or Processing facility CAN specify a carrying capacity for
assets. If, at any time, the amount of an asset in the possession of an
Production or Processing facility exceeds that asset's carrying
capacity, an amount of that asset is destroyed until the amount of that
asset in the possession of the facility is equal to its carrying
capacity.

At the end of every Agoran Week, Agora creates a number of assets in a
Production facility specified by the rule which creates the facility.

At the end of every Agoran Week, Agora destroys any refinable assets in
the possession of each Processing facility that that facility can
change into refined assets and replaces them with a corresponding
number of refined assets to be specified by the rule that creates the
facility.

 A player can take a number of assets from an Production or Processing
 facility's inventory by announcement if eir location is the same as
 the facility's and the following criteria are met:
 1. if the facility is built on Public Land, none.
 2. if the facility is built on Communal Land, e must be a party to
 that contract and the text of the contract must permit em to do so.
 3. if the facility is built on Private Land, e must own the facility,
 or the owner must have consented.

Amend "Facility Ranks" (Power=2.0) to read the following:
Rank is a facility switch tracked by the Cartographor defaulting to 1.
Its possible values include all integers between 1 and 5, inclusive.

If a facility specifies upgrade costs, a player CAN increase the rank
of a facility e owns that is at eir location by exactly 1 by
announcement by paying any upgrade costs of the facility for that
specific rank. If no upgrade costs are specified for a facility, a
player CANNOT increase the rank of that facility unless specified in
other rules.

Create a new rule "Facility Colors" (Power=2.0):
A facility's Allowed Land Types is a switch with allowed values of a
list of allowed values of the Land Type switch, with a default value of
{"Black", "White"}. A facility may not have a Parent Land Unit whose
Land Type is not an element of their Allowed Land Types. If an action
or set of actions would cause a facility to be created with a Parent
Land Unit whose Land Type is not an element of its Allowed Land Types,
that action or set of actions fails. If a facility's Parent Land Unit's
Land Type is flipped to a color that is not in that facility's Allowed
Land Types, that facility is destroyed.

An “x facility”, where x is a Land Type or list of Land Types, refers
to a facility that has the Allowed Land Types switch set to x.

Create a new rule "Gray Land" (Power=2.0):
Gray Land is preserved and owned by Agora. If Land becomes Gray Land,
it, along with any facilities with it as their Parent Land Unit, is
transferred to Agora.

Amend “Actions in Arcadia” (Power=1.0) by replacing the first two element
in the list with:
1. 1 apple to move from one Land Unit to an adjacent Unit if their Land
Types are the same or one of them is gray, and the destination is not
Aether;

2. 2 apples to move from one Land Unit to an adjacent Unit if their
Land Types differ, neither is gray, and the destination is not Aether;

Create a new rule "Monument Facilities" (Power=1.0):
For each type of Monument facility, there may only be one instance of
that facility in existence at any one time. An action CANNOT cause an
Monument facility to exist while another Monument facility of the same
type is already in existence.

Create a new rule "The Fountain" (Power=1.0):
A fountain is a Gray Monument facility. A fountain has no upkeep cost.

Create a new rule "Wishing Fountain", (Power=1.0):
If a player's location is the same as a fountain, e CAN destroy a coin
to Throw A Coin into the fountain. This does nothing, unless specified
in another Rule. A player MAY announce what e wishes for when e Throws
A Coin.

Set (0, 0)'s Land Type to "Gray".
Create a fountain at (0, 0) belonging to Agora.
}

Welcome, Ouri!

Benjamin's player name is OscarMeyr. Generally, players will sign their 
messages with their player name, so you can usually tell what they want 
to be called by how they sign their messages.


For example, Trigon is my player name while Reuben Staley is my real 
name. To refer to me in Agoran contexts, use Trigon, not Reuben.

For instance - is your name Benjamin Schultz? Or Oscar Meyr?

People are generally pretty helpful and forgiving of mistakes (thankfully,
because I make a lot of them). If you have specific questions, just ask.

A general (bad) summary of the version of the game right now is that it's a
mix of Go, Catan, and Harvest Moon. There's a 13x13 game board that are
either white, black, or empty tiles. We can walk around on these tiles and
create new ones by consuming apples and corn. If a group of tiles is
encircled by the other color such that there are no blank spaces, the
encircled tiles get turned blank. Then, you can buy tiles (there's a land
auction going on right now) and build facilities on them like mines and
farms that produce or refine resources. You can move around the map and
pick up resources produced at your facilities, refine them, upgrade your
facilities, and trade resources to other players and generally try to
expand your production chain. Of course, if you have ideas to improve this
game, anything could be changed with a vote.

(Note, these rules aren't in the ruleset online because it hasn't been
updated recently. Here's my messy version of what the map rules look like
currently to the best of my understanding:
https://gist.github.com/KenyonPrater/bb32158fc9cdfacaadc823608b7566ef)
Obviously there are a ton more rules governing contracts, running for
office, voting, etc.

Welcome Ouri!

You can change your name/nickname any time just by saying so, as Registrar
I'll record your latest preference.  It's generally helpful to sign your
messages with your chosen name if it doesn't match the name in your email
address (though I suspect we'll quickly come to associate those characters
with you!)

DIS: Proto: Formalized Precedent

2018-04-03 Thread Gaelan Steele
Proto:

A Clarification is a type of instrument that always has 0.1 power. A 
clarification may only clarify existing rules, and may not have any 
functionality not already provided by a reasonably plausible interpretation of 
a rules; any other functionality is INEFFECTIVE. [Maybe: remove this sentence 
to avoid crazy meta-CFJs, letting the Moot system handle bad Clarifications?] 
The Rulekeepor SHALL include the text of all Clarifications in the Full Logical 
Ruleset, and SHOULD list them near relevant rules.

When submitting a nontrivial judgment of TRUE, FALSE or PARADOXICAL, a judge 
CAN and SHOULD propose the text for one or more Clarifications. Once a 
Judgement has been in place for more than seven days without being entered into 
Moot, or has been entered into Moot with a result of AFFIRM or FAILED QUORUM, 
Clarifications are created with the specified text.

Any player may destroy a Clarification Without Objection, and SHOULD do so if 
it becomes irrelevant.

—

This is pretty similar to the annotations we already had on old FLRs, but given 
force and a legal requirement for the Rulekeepor to keep track of them. After 
this is in effect for a while, it might be worth getting rid of the current 
informal precedent system (in the form of a suggestion of how to judge CFJs).
