DIS: Proto-Proposal - Dependent Action Cleanup

2019-02-10 Thread D. Margaux
Here’s a revised proto proposal for cleaning up dependent actions. I think it’s markup compliant and addresses Gaelan’s comments. Any further comments? Title: Dependent Action Cleanup Act Author: D Margaux Co-author: Gaelan AI: 3 Retitle Rule 1728 to “Dependent Action Methods.” Amend Rule 1728

Unfortunately, Markdown is rather limited in the types of lists it implements. It can do 1., 2., 3., but unless you have an extended markdown, it does not recognise parenthesized numbers or any kind of letters. It does support *, -, and + for unordered lists. We can either have different

Actually, the markdown-compliance has been broken for a while, for example by Rule 2531 as of revision 3. On 2/8/19 6:19 PM, Gaelan Steele wrote: Yep, that would be me. And that is still nice (agora-ruleset.gaelan.me uses it), so I’d prefer that we keep that up. But if others think it’s fine,

I think it’s confusing also because there is a second level list that uses the same numbering as the two top-level lists. Is that not possible to change? Maybe we could split the rule into two rules, which would fix the issue of having two top level lists with the same numbering system. But

I am reminded that a previous Rulekeepor (Gaelan perhaps?) made a number of formatting changes in order to make the Ruleset valid markdown, and I don't quite remember for sure, but that may be how this rule ended up with the confusion of two top-level lists with the same numbering scheme. I

Below is a protoproposal that is meant to address the bug that Gaelan identified. I also noticed what might be another bug--I believe, under the current first paragraph (1), an intent might fail if the player ever announced that same intent more than 15 days prior. So, arguably, if Gaelan ever
