Sure - I think the weekly report is 14+ days late so you can
deputize to publish it whenever (will still push ahead with the
changing cards to blots, so if that goes through it will be a
little more currency-tracking-like).

 I confused Referee with Arbitor lol, sorry. One of the multiple positions
G. has (I dunno if he wants it or not though)

Referee seems subjective-based/easy (people frequently just suggest the
Cards anyway too) so I guess I can do it.

Apart from not removing judges, Murphy is doing a pretty good job, and it's
not terribly friendly to remove an active-ish officer. It's also a ton of
work. Might I suggest something a bit easier for your first go (say
Registrar or Reportor)?

I agree. There are ton of vacant or semi-vacant offices right now that you
could take, what with G. being in like 3 things he doesn't want and Alexis
having just left. There are probably more offices than players at the
moment, and we're struggling to fill holes. This is a good way of
encouraging applicants.

Re: DIS: Some minor reforms

2018-02-28 Thread Gaelan Steele
I disagree—many offices involve a lot of work, so it's only fair to reward it, 
and for a reward to be meaningful if needs to be relevant. It's not unfair; if 
you want piece of the pie, vacancies come up fairly frequently.

How about we tie this into the "religious" gameplay we had cooking in that
other thread? Offices working for the "greater good" and all. (I'm not too
comfortable with Offices gaining currency of the 'main game' because I feel
like that subverts gameplay, it's like if the Banker in Monopoly got more
cash because he was such, or the referee of a football match earned points
for their preferred team because they're doing their job...)

   - Rulekeepor
   - Arbitor
 3. On paydays, holders of:
A. Low-Paying Jobs get 3 coins, 1 corn
 B. Mid-Paying Jobs get 10 coins, 1 corn, 2 stones, 2 lumber
 C. High-Paying Jobs get 15 coins, 1 corn, 5 stones, 5 lumber, 5
 fabric
 4. For every:
 A. Low paying job a player has, give em 1 JP.
 B. Mid paying job, 2 JP
 C. High paying job, 3 JP
 5. Players have a Worker Merit switch. Every month, it's increased by
 how
 many job points the player has.
 6. When someone earns 50 worker merit, e wins.

 Second idea:

 "Official duties" are things that the ruleset requires an officer to do

 The first one is vastly more complex, but it would require a lot more
