I think we're just interpreting things differently:  when a proposal is
"added back" to the proposal pool, you give it the priority of its original
number, while I was assuming that if other proposals were added to the
pool in the mean time, those should have priority.

In this case, it turned out that your ordering happened to favor proposals
you were keen on, that I didn't want to pass.

Where this matters:  I thought about resubmitting a "Coins->Points"
name change proposal that could take effect before the "coin reduction"
proposals, thus rendering them ineffective.  But if those quorum-failing
proposals always jump the queue, that removes this strategy.

Anyway:  I almost added that we haven't had a good "karma storm" (lots
of people sniping each others' karma) in a long time.  It's a good way
to blow off steam (and smooth things over :) ) without really damaging
anyone - though the zombies doing karma really amplifies it I guess!
I'm cool (even if you do another round of karma on me :P ).

Our precedent is basically that player names aren't a "tracked" thing,
rather we simply identify players by whichever means is most
convenient. (It should in theory be possible to change how someone else
is named on the Registrar report if everyone persistently calls them by
a particular name.) As such, any unambiguous attempt to name someone is
likely to work, regardless of what the spelling is.

(There was a period of Agoran history where we had a player named
"Wooble" and a player named "woggle", and occasionally people got
confused and ended up producing a name somewhere in between. I can't
remember for certain how that worked out, but I'd expect it to be "as
long as it's clear who's the poster was trying to name, it works". This
situation is much less ambiguous.)

I submit this notice of honor:

-1 to D. Margaux for being a manipulator
+1 to D Margaux for helping debug zombie rules

I call a CFJ: This Notice of Honour causes a player's karma to change by
exactly one and then change back.

Arguments: In standard English, initials can be spelled with periods and
spaces between them, with only periods, with only spaces, or with nothing.
For example:

J. R. R. Tolkien
J.R.R. Tolkien
J R R Tolkien
JRR Tolkien

All four aforementioned names refer to the same person, John Ronald Reuel
Tolkien. Since all players are persons, it follows that initials should be
accepted using any method of separation.

Therefore, "D. Margaux" and "D Margaux" refer to the same person, a person
who registered during April of this year.

This ends my arguments for a frivolous CFJ. I probably did something wrong.

Depitizing for rulekeepor entails taking the office over (unless you resign
after of course). I think we'd all appreciate the short term work but it's
one of the hardest jobs to do on an ongoing basis.

That said, was the last election ever resolved? I see VJ initiated it on
September 14 but can't find the resolution.

I understand your concerns and even share some of them. That's why I'm 
only testing the waters a bit right now with the deputisation. If it 
turns out to be too much work and I don't want to handle it, than 
someone else should definitely take the job. That being said, I'm fairly 
certain that that will not happen and that I'll be able to fulfill the 
responsibilities of the position.


It is, however, the choice of the Agorans who is most fit for the 
position, I suppose. We'll just have to wait and see.

Yes, regardless of who deputizes in the short-term I think this one definitely

I should say I'm a bit nervous with someone who hasn't been an Officer
before starting with rulekeepor.  It's an unholy blend of a lot of work, 
in big bursts, with timeliness being a big issue, and it requires some 
pretty finicky understanding of the rules (e.g. it's the primary person
responsible for whether proposal amendments work, requiring knowledge of 
standards for clarity, AI/power, etc.)  I think the position is
historically the biggest source of officer burn-out even among 
experienced players.  (I think almost *all* rulekeepor changeovers have
happened when the rulekeepor just gave up on it for a month or more).

I'm not saying "100% don't", but forewarned is forearmed...

Re: DIS: Re: BUS: Notice of Honour

2017-10-22 Thread Kerim Aydin


You deputize by actually performing the action (e.g. actually publishing
an up-to-date Ruleset that's overdue).  Multiple people might announce
their intent to do so ahead of time, but that doesn't make the office
change (or reserve it for them).

So you'd do it by saying "I deputize for the Rulekeepor to publish the
following report:" followed by the actual report.

You can do as you intended, making the "if it is still possible" clause in
PSS' pledge false, thus alleviating eir duty to become Rulekeepor. Think of
it as "if you don't do it, they will".

Indeed, e did. I and others have volunteered to help annotate CFJs,
including working on the backlog, but it never happened. The last FLR
to have CFJ annotations is here [1]. It's from May and was the last
ruleset G. did as Rulekeepor. Incidentally, they probably belong in
the FLR, because the HLR is designed for readability, not historical
content. I'd vote for any candidate who promised/pledged to maintain
the HLR and return CFJ annotations to the FLR.

I'd be willing to do one or all of these things. I've been around for

Rulekeepor is definitely out of date on SLRs; anyone could deputise for 
it with appropriate notice. They could also start an election, perhaps 
with a campaign pledge to reinstate CFJ annotations?

That case specifically references CFJ 2897.  2897 is interesting, because 
it's a specific policy reversal, to quote Judge ais523:

(https://faculty.washington.edu/kerim/nomic/cases/?2897)

So Judge ais523 specifically examined prior-to-2897 precedents and custom,
and made the decision that the rules took precedence, and implied that going
forward subject lines were ok (with some caveats).  That seems like a
definitive landmark to take as a starting point for assuming they can work
in many circumstances (maybe with clarity tests like in CFJ 3409).

The difference might be that in 3409 the standard was the ordinary "by
announcement" wheras here the rule involved itself specifies a
heightened standard of clarity?

Huh, you're right, I could have sworn I saw them there...

Rulekeepor is definitely out of date on SLRs; anyone could deputise for it
with appropriate notice. They could also start an election, perhaps with a
campaign pledge to reinstate CFJ annotations?

Just grepped the cases directory.  The recent one was 3501.  I remember
it led to discussion, but the action in question was registration which
is a special case (you're allowed to be more unclear in registration
than for most things).

The next one back is 3409.  It proposes some tests for whether a subject
line works:

Could be a potential option for the HLR? (if officialising that is even 
a good idea)
Would be really useful to have if we don't just want to officially add 
(or overrule) CFJs through proposal, though. There really is a lot to 
absorb as a newbie :P
As for the late reports in offices, is there much that can be done 
there? I'm half-tempted to look into deputising, but worried about 
overwhelming myself or burning out (plus I have no idea how to upload to 
the website)

Re: DIS: Re: BUS: Notice of Honour

2017-10-21 Thread Kerim Aydin


We've recently re-assessed whether subject lines have meaning,
I think a recent CFJ allowed it.  The exact text of the rule is 
that a Notice must
 "Be clear that it is a Notice of Honour"
I believe the subject line and context are sufficiently clear
so that would be how I'd reflect it in my report (I'd understand
a CFJ though, it's a borderline case).

Still, even if this is allowed, it's good form to have it in the 
message text.
