Nevermind. But this still requires an actual finale script to be adopted before it triggers, which might not happen. -- Jason Cobb Assessor, Rulekeepor, Stonemason

If it would be less, the Victory Threshold is instead 1. If a player has at least the Victory Threshold more Victory Points than any other player, e CAN Take Over the Economy by announcement, provided no person has won the game by doing so in the past 30 days. When a player takes over the economy, e wins the game. Four days after such a win occurs, all Cards and all Products are destroyed. Then, each active player gains 1 card of each type and eir grant (if any). This needs to be resolved before Trigon's recent proto, if both pass. (Which would have been unnecessary if it was written as replacing only the paragraph it affects.) Greetings, Ørjan.

Shelvacu was the only one, now expunged. So there are *no* fugitives listed on the most recent scroll of agora, if taking a strict reading of the rules. The accurate phrase is something like "all persons listed *as* fugitives on the most recent..." Maybe with this being a wholly advisory vote to the Herald it doesn't matter one bit, just caught my eye?] Some overall history/explanation, previously shared on discord: When we last had blots, years ago, and blots were repealed, there were quite a few people with 1 Blot. A few players said "hey they shouldn't get away scot-free, they should apologize or something if they ever come back". The Herald was the blot-tracker of the time, so e (by which I mean I) made that list. It never had any official status. In the first few years after that, a couple people on the list came back, said sorry, and were removed from the list. At least one person in my memory (don't remember who tho) came back, saw eir name, and said "haha that's great" and didn't apologize on purpose, to stay on the list. But this fell out of use and is way out of date. I think a couple heralds have since added a some names when people deregistered while under some kind of punishment, but it was haphazard. So even if the principle was sound, it was unevenly applied? -G.
