Title: Extend "amend"

Amend Rule 105 (Power=3) 'Rule Changes' by removing items 3-6 in the
ordered list and then adding to that list:

 3. reenact a rule. A repealed rule not in the ruleset identified
by its most recent rule number MUST be specified for
 reenactment. The rule's properites are to be set as follows:


"properties"


* its ID number will be the same as it was when the rule was
   most recently repealed.

* its change identifier will be one more than its change
   identifier when it was most recently repealed.

* If no text is specified for the rule, it is to have the same
   text it had when it was most recently repealed. If the
   reenacting instrument provides new text, it is to have that
   text. The rule SHOULD have materially the same purpose as did
   the repealed version.

* If a new power is not specified, it is to have power equal to
   the power it had at the time of its most recent repeal, or
   power 1, if power was not defined at the time of that rule's
   repeal. If the reenacting instrument provides a new power, it
   is to have that power.

* If a new title is not specified, it is to have the same title
   as it had when it was most recently repealed. If the
   reenacting instrument provides a new title, it is to have
   that title.


Perhaps the last three can be consolidated like you did with amendment:

* Each of its text, power and title shall be as provided by the
  reenacting instrument, or if not provided, the same as when it
  was most recently repealed, with power defaulting to 1 if it had
  none. The rule SHOULD have materially the same purpose as did
  the repealed version.


If the re-enacting instrument is incapable of setting the
 reenacted rule's power to that value, then the re-enactment is
 INEFFECTIVE.

 4. amend a rule. This may include changing the rule's text, name,
or power.

DIS: [Proto] Extend "amend"

2019-02-08 Thread Reuben Staley
The mistake of conflating retitlings and amendments has been made many 
times recently, the most recent being by an experienced player, and one 
of the earlier ones breaking a minigame completely. Also, adding 
different property changes as separate rule changes is more 
time-consuming for your Rulekeepor than being able to just put them in 
as a singular rule change. So here we go:


-
Title: Extend "amend"

Amend Rule 105 (Power=3) 'Rule Changes' by removing items 3-6 in the
ordered list and then adding to that list:

  3. reenact a rule. A repealed rule not in the ruleset identified
 by its most recent rule number MUST be specified for
 reenactment. The rule's properites are to be set as follows:

 * its ID number will be the same as it was when the rule was
   most recently repealed.

 * its change identifier will be one more than its change
   identifier when it was most recently repealed.

 * If no text is specified for the rule, it is to have the same
   text it had when it was most recently repealed. If the
   reenacting instrument provides new text, it is to have that
   text. The rule SHOULD have materially the same purpose as did
   the repealed version.

 * If a new power is not specified, it is to have power equal to
   the power it had at the time of its most recent repeal, or
   power 1, if power was not defined at the time of that rule's
   repeal. If the reenacting instrument provides a new power, it
   is to have that power.

 * If a new title is not specified, it is to have the same title
   as it had when it was most recently repealed. If the
   reenacting instrument provides a new title, it is to have
   that title.

 If the re-enacting instrument is incapable of setting the
 reenacted rule's power to that value, then the re-enactment is
 INEFFECTIVE.

  4. amend a rule. This may include changing the rule's text, name,
 or power.
