Combining this idea with a separate discussion: Make the Speaker
electable, but the only valid options are people with a certain karma
threshold. If the current holder drops below that, e can be impeached.

On a related note for thematics, the Shogun was a warlord who was in power
because of military-into-political might, not really because of honor or
anything. The "formal" ruler was the Emperor but he kinda didn't do
anything. The Shogun was the real person in control.

Japanese as a general rule doesn't distinguish between singular and plural,
and English tends to keep the original language's plurals. It's one piece
of sushi, two pieces of sushi etc.; one samurai, two samurai, etc.
I'd probably pick eta because it's historical and short. We can pretend

Thanks! If you were picking one, which would you pick? (And what's the
singular
version of that, does it match "is a Samurai" as both singular and plural)

The Karmaster [Or whoever tracks these switches] Should be able to prune
from the top/bottom if: Total karma abs([Positive - Negative]) Exceeds some
threshold - that way you don't need a proposal to fix it later.

Thought about that a bit... technically it's always 0 sum among *persons*, to
have
an average go that high you'd need a lot of low-karma players to deregister. I
think
that's a case of "let's re-center by proposal if it proved later that we need
to".
I also thought about linking Samurai, etc
Not optional, IMO.
If your primary goal is to be negative about someone, you have to find someone
other
than yourself to be positive about.
If your primary goal is to be positive, you can (1) donate it from yourself, and
feel good about it, or (2) if there's some non-participant players hangin
I suggest Karma rubber-banding of some sort so that Karma just doesn't
continuously drift upwards. Otherwise we may have for example:
[Current Date]: Newcomer arrives with 0 Karma, General populace has an
average of 20 Karma.
[Current Date + 2 months]: Newcomer arrives with 0 Karma, General popula
The Japanese term for a (western) serf is *noudo*, literally meaning farm
servant. If you want something from the historical Japanese caste system,
since they took after Confucian ideas, peasant was was actually the highest
commoner class (above craftsmen and merchants); the outcasts of the
Japanes

Just as an addendum, if 天火狐 or anyone with better knowledge of Japanese
feudal/cultural terms than me wants to suggest flavor improvements (in English
alphabet please), I'd gra

need a
formal way to express approval/disapproval short of deregistration and crimes,
IMO].
