You might even want to roll the preserved land fix into this. That's
technically not a bug, but it's a big enough malfunction that I don't
think it would be unreasonable to put it in the same proposal.

Re: DIS: Proto: PAoaM Patch

[Reuben Staley]

Other things we need to do:

Make Agora the auctioneer for Land Auctions.

Remove the last paragraph of the Facilities rule and replace it with
"Facilities always have the same owner as their parent land unit" or
smth.

Add a destruction clause to the Facilities rule. Also maybe a
rank-down the facilities clause.

Also, the Land Transfiguration rule may be a bit broken. Make it say
"At the beginning of the second Eastman week of each month, the
following actions occur. The Cartographor SHALL report these changes
in a timely fashion."

Title: PAoaM Patch
AI: 3.1

—

Remove the sentence "If the reenacting proposal provides new text for the
rule, the rule must have materially the same purpose as did the
repealed version; otherwise, the attempt to reenact the rule is
null and void.” from Rule 105 “Rule Changes.”

If rule 2599 is not currently enacted, re-enact it with the following text; if 
it is enacted but does not have the following text, amend it to have the 
following text: {
  If a player has not received a Welcome Package since e most
  recently registered, any player CAN cause em to receive one by
  announcement.

  When a player receives a Welcome Package, Agora creates the
  following assets in eir possession:

  1. 10 coins
  2. 5 lumber
  3. 5 stones
  4. 10 apples
  5. 3 papers
}

If no rule titled “Paydays” exists, create it at power 2 with the following 
text; if it exists but does not have the following text, amend it to have the 
following text: {
  Whenever a Payday occurs, the following events happen in order:

  1. The following assets are created in the possession of each
 player:
 A. 10 coins
 B. 5 apples
 C. 2 papers

  2. For each office, if a single player held that office for 16 or
 more days in the previous month and e was not issued any Cards
 other than Green for eir conduct in that office during that
 time, the following assets are created in the possession of
 that player:
 A. 5 coins
 B. 1 corn

  The occurrence of Paydays is secured.  At the beginning of each
  month, a Payday occurs.
}

If Rule 1993 is not currently enacted, re-enact it with the following text; if 
it is enacted but does not have the following text, amend it to have the 
following text: {
  Arcadia is a land entirely defined by the Arcadian Map (the Map).
  The Map is the term for the set of all Land Units.

  The Map divides Arcadia into a finite, discrete number of Units of
  Land, or simply Land. Each Unit of Land is an indestructible asset
  specified by an ordered pair of integers known as its Latitude and
  Longitude.

  Every unique ordered pair of integers within the limits defined in
  the Rules for Latitude and Longitude signifies an existent Unit of
  Land. No other Units of Land exist. Units of Land CAN only be
  created or destroyed by changing the limits of Latitude and
  Longitude defined in the Rules.

  All values for Latitude and Longitude MUST lie between -6 and +6,
  inclusive.

  The Total Land Area of Arcadia is the number of existent Units of
  Land defined by permissible Latitude and Longitude pairs.
}

If Rule 1994 is not currently enacted, re-enact it with the following text; if 
it is enacted but does not have the following text, amend it to have the 
following text: {
  Any existent Land for which ownership has not been explicitly
  changed belongs to Agora.

  Land belonging to Agora is called Public Land. Land belonging to
  a contract is called Communal Land. Land belonging to any other
  entity is called Private Land. Together, Communal Land and Private
  Land are called Proprietary Land.
}

If Rule 1995 is not currently enacted, re-enact it with the following text; if 
it is enacted but does not have the following text, amend it to have the 
following text: {
  Each Unit of Land has a Land Type switch, tracked by the
  Cartographor, whose values are "Black", "White", and "Aether" (the
  default). Changes to Land Type switches are secured. To "change
  the type" of, or to "transform" a Unit of Land is to flip its Type
  switch. A “Unit of X” is a Unit of Land whose Land Type switch has
  the value X.

  When existent Land has not had its Type changed as explicitly
  permitted by the Rules, or has a Type that is not currently
  defined by the Rules, it is considered to have the Land Type of
  Aether. Rules to the contrary nonwithstanding, Units of Aether
  CANNOT be transferred from Agora, or owned by any entity other
  than Agora.

  If Proprietary Land becomes Aether, the Cartographor SHALL
  transfer it to Agora in a timely fashion, destroy any facilities
  on the Land Unit, and set all other switches to their default
  values.

  Type is a singleton switch with the values of Black and White,
  defaulting to Black. When an act specifies that an alternating
  land type is to be used, the current value of the Alternating Land
  Type switch is used, and the switch is set to the next value of
  the switch.
}

If Rule 1996 is not currently enacted, re-enact it with the following text; if 
it is enacted but does not have the following text, amend it to have the 
following text: {
  The Cartographor is an office; its holder is recordkeepor for the
  Land of Arcadia.

  The Cartographor's Weekly Report shall include:

  1. the ownership and land type of all existing land;
  2. all changes in the ownership and land type of existing land
 since the most recent report;
  3. the location for the previous week and the current week of each
 entity with a defined location;
