Currently, fabric is only used in some upper-level rank-up payments. I think it is the least useful of the nine economic assets right now.

It's completely possible to amass a fortune by living off of public land, so little guys can still get money that they can spend on zombies and/or land eventually. The monthly salary ensures that less affluent players have a constant source of income that they can use to survive. Included in the salary is 10 coins, 5 apples, and 2 papers. I will now explain how this allows one to sustainably live. Having some coins ensures that a player can, with enough time, gain wealth by using careful spending. If you don't purchase anything for two months and are just living off of the base salary, you have 20 coins. That's more than enough to buy land unit, as demonstrated by the previous land unit auction, where the highest selling unit was worth 16 coins. And as long as you take some public action during that time, you are safe from the legal theft of zombiehood. Additionally, with time, some land units will become more valuable to control, leaving others neglected. Going for neglected land units will make it so that you won't have to pay nearly as much to get yourself started. Having some apples ensures that you can move around the map. Assuming you stay around the origin, you can do a few rounds of nabbing stuffs to get even more resources. Inconveniently, more coins are out of your reach, but that's intentional since I wanted you to have to work for a little while before you can basically print money. But, as demonstrated in the past few weeks, you can get more apples and more corn from the preserved farm and orchard, making it completely possible to stay living in the center of the map for a while. Proposals are the most powerful thing in the game, and under the current rules, you're guaranteed to be able to submit some every month because you get two papers every month. Perhaps there can be a coin reward for a proposal passing. I think we had that under the proportional economy rules. If we institute this change, then it provides incentive to create good proposals. I think it would give these less affluent players more opportunity as well, which is a good thing. But that's not even all of it. As we all know, officers are given 5 coins and 1 corn at the beginning of the month for faithful service. Less affluent players can get a low-effort office that no one is currently occupying, which allows them to receive extra income. But, as I've made clear before, I'm dissatisfied with the way officers are paid, since some offices clearly require more recordkeeping than others. See this message[1] for my previously published ideas on how to fix it. In conclusion, I think it's clear now that less affluent people actually have way more opportunities than lots of people here estimate. Even still, I think some reforms are in order to improve the state of the economy, namely the officer fix and reinstitution of proposal rewards. It is because of all this that I don't think redistribution to poor players is the reform we need.

Re: DIS: Re: BUS: Contract Creation
The contract's state would be fine, because it wouldn't be indeterminate. However, any conditional that depended upon it "depends on information that is indeterminate, or is impossible or unreasonably difficult to determine, or otherwise requires an unreasonable effort to resolve". We really should merge indeterminacy and inextricability. Alexis suggested it, but I disagreed because they're separate concepts. They are, it's just that they're really used for the exact same thing. -Aris On Wed, Apr 11, 2018 at 3:09 PM, Kenyon Praterwrote: > A related question, if a contact's state rests on something that is > guaranteed to have a definite solution, but producing that solution > computationally intractable, is there a mechanism for resolving that?

A related question, if a contact's state rests on something that is guaranteed to have a definite solution, but producing that solution computationally intractable, is there a mechanism for resolving that? It isn't paradoxical or indeterminate, it's just that we don't have the ability to determine the correct game state.

Re: DIS: Re: BUS: Re: OFF: [Cartographor] The Map of Arcadia -- April 11, 2018
I think Corona was talking about the thing where Agora would get all the money that people spent and distribute it to the poorest players. That was under the proportional economy where only 1000 shinies could exist. I think if we were to reimplement that system, it would be too easy to scam, with zombies and contracts and whatnot, so I'm not sold just yet. If another proposal comes forth proposing a different way of filtering assets back into the economy, I might be willing to support it.

Re: DIS: Re: BUS: Re: OFF: [Cartographor] The Map of Arcadia -- April 11, 2018
That's what monthly salary is right? Problem of course is that applies to zombies too - excluding zombies from salary would balance though of course would devalue zombies. I was really surprised that the zombie auction prices were so low. In the current system, the ability to occupy multiple land units/move in multiple directions and place multiple bids in auctions is huge (that wasn't planned on my part when I made zombies - I was pretty much thinking of them as a way to get an extra vote or two). On the flip side, zombies are a precarious investment because you can lose them at any time.

Re: DIS: Re: BUS: Contract Creation
I found the answer, contracts can only amend themselves by announcement (meaning my original contract there made does not work). I think contracts can only act by announcement, which seriously makes me wonder how I'm going to get all my assets back.

Re: DIS: Re: BUS: Contract Creation
A couple things: 1. Can a zombie "willfully" consent to joining a contract (R869 requirement)? I don't think so - see R2519. Nonetheless this may count as a "scare" since on reading that first message, people might not have known that. 2. I thought there was an "all parties have to have had an opportunity to review an agreement change or it doesn't work" clause in the rules - that was there for a long time was it taken out when the current contract rules were written? (that would govern your question - the standard would be that evidence would have to exist eg in an email that all parties agreed to a particular thing).

Re: DIS: Re: BUS: Re: OFF: [Registrar] Monthly deregistration intents and zombifications
A finger-pointing should be shenanigans if it happens 14 days after the breach. However, the way it's written, it's the final fine that's ineffective if it's levied after 14 days (R2531). That should be fixed I think - given that the referee has a week to respond to a finger-pointing, e can let it timeout if e doesn't want to blot it. I don't like the option of "just card the offense" because it puts the referee's opinion at direct odds with a judge's opinion. In this case for example, I really believe it's Shenanigans (based on my arguments for that CFJ), so it's appropriate for me to call it. But if the CFJ found the reverse, I'd want to honor that. So if I'm forced to card before the CFJ is done, I either have to lie (and levy the fine when I don't believe it's appropriate just to keep the option open for the CFJ) or be truthful (and prevent justice from being served if the CFJ finds I'm wrong here). I'm not fond of those options. On Wed, 11 Apr 2018, Ned Strange wrote: > So there's actually two limitations periods.

Hey absolute hypothetical fellas: what would happen if I made a contract that said "this contract automatically amends itself to whatever text V.J.

Re: DIS: Re: BUS: Re: OFF: [Registrar] Monthly deregistration intents and zombifications
So there's actually two limitations periods. The seven-day period for CHoJ and the fourteen-day one for overall response and Summary Judgement. The seven-day period should probably be tolled by pending CFJ, but I'm not sure about tolling the fortnight period. I suppose the fortnight period should be tolled if there is a Finger Pointed _and_ a CFJ but not otherwise? But I still see no need for tolling because it is simple to just card for the offense while the CFJ is pending and then have that card have never happened due to the CFJ if it comes out the other way.

Re: DIS: Re: BUS: Re: OFF: deputy-[Referee] Weekly Report
Ah, I forgot that asset clause, and that pledges are assets. We're all good then, you're right. My deputization for finger-pointing should be good, I think that's the only official duty I tried to do when we thought I was Referee (other than a now-owed report). The clause you're seeking is in R2143.

DIS: Re: BUS: Re: OFF: deputy-[Referee] Weekly Report
There is the following provision "The recordkeepor of a class of assets is the entity (if any) defined as such by, and bound by, its backing document. That entity's report includes a list of all instances of that class and their owners." I'm 95% sure there was at one point a rule that said "if any report's time period is not specified, it's weekly" or something of the like, but I cannot find it now.

Re: DIS: Re: BUS: Re: OFF: [Registrar] Monthly deregistration intents and zombifications
That's not needed. The rules say punishment CAN only be imposed if a rule is broken so the Ref can simply impose punishment and then if the CFJ rules otherwise, the punishment never happened in the first place. Or not, if he so chooses. The Ref is entitled to rule finger-pointing as Shenanigans even when it is not Shenanigans if e believes sincerely there is no breach.

It was awarded in 2014 and 2015, but my memory (I think I was the Herald then) is that voting was lackluster even then. Agree with deletion.

There is a CFJ pending as to whether this is shenanigans or not.

Re: BUS: Re: DIS: Re: OFF: [Regkeepor] ACORN
So I do just want to respond to that. [quote]The Promulgator of a regulation is an officer, not a person[/quote] The term "officer" is defined by rule 1006 as "the holder of an office". The holder of an office is a person who holds it at a particular time. Rule 1006 also states that "If the holder of an office is ever not a player, it becomes vacant". That rule therefore compels the reading that the holders of offices are (usually) players. Players are people. Therefore, while not all people are officers, officers are all people. There is no distinction between an officer and a person who holds an office at a particular time. [quote]o only promulgated the regulation in eir persona as Notary, which has now passed to you[/quote] But the Promulgator of a Regulation (the word Promulgator is inconsistently capitalised btw, add that to your bugfixes) is explicitly defined as an officer. An officer is someone who holds an office at a particular time. [quote]I will also note that an assumption to the contrary risks entanglement of official powers and responsibilities from personal ones[/quote] Indeed it does. These official powers and responsibilities are already entangled by the rules in the most obvious way possible. The punishments for missing a deadline are the same as the punishments for personal crimes like breaking a contract. If President Trump's Executive Orders are found unconstitutional, he is not getting thrown into jail or being found civilly liable in his own right. However, that _is_ the Agoran way of doing things. An office is not some separate persona, but merely a set of powers and responsibilities laid on a player for a temporary period. [quote] In general, we have assumed that a responsibility ascribed to an officer changes hands with the office, and this case could call that into dispute[/quote] An office is a set of responsibilities superimposed upon a player's existing set. Once a player leaves an office, they no longer have said responsibilities. But that does not mean that the player entering an office is the same _officer_ as the player who left it.
