Otherwise, it is tracked in the Tailor's weekly report. with this text: Festivity is tracked in the Tailor's monthly report. In addition, while Festivity is non-zero, the Tailor SHALL announce its value each week; a public document purporting to be such an announcement is self-ratifying. [Now that Glitter has been repealed, the existence of the Tailor's weekly report depends solely on whether a Festival is in progress. I would rather give up the occasional extra salary than have to deal with the extra complexity in the ADoP's report.] ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ID: 8659 Title: Speak Like People Adoption index: 3.0 Author: nix Co-authors: G., snail [Reword welcome packages to unambiguously make "grant" work and also add a keyword for "cashing in" sets, to fix some clunky language.] Amend R2577 "Asset Actions" by replacing: To grant an entity an asset is to create it in eir possession. with: To grant an entity an asset is to create it in eir possession.

To define a bird, the definition must include: (i) A name unique among birds; (ii) A scroll, which is a document specifying the effects of the bird. Ownership of birds is entirely restricted to Agora and active players. If a bird is owned by the Lost and Found Department or in abeyance, it is immediately transferred to Agora. The Avicultor is an office, and the recordkeepor of birds. A player that is not Beast Permitted SHALL NOT transfer a bird e owns to another player; doing so is the Class 3 Crime of Unpermitted Beast Transit. } Create a rule with title "Permits", power 1.0, and the following text: { Beast Permitted is a secured negative boolean person switch, tracked by the Avicultor in eir weekly report. A player with a Beast Permitted switch set to True is 'Beast Permitted'. A player CAN buy a beast permit by paying a fee of 50 boatloads of coins. When a player buys a beast permit, eir Beast Permitted switch is set to True. A player CAN relinquish eir beast permit by announcement. When a player relinquishes eir beast permit, eir Beast Permitted switch is set to False. A player CAN renew eir beast permit by paying a fee of 25 boatloads of coins. When permits expire, the Avicultor CAN and SHALL review each Beast Permitted player, with notice, in a timely fashion. When a Beast Permitted player is reviewed, if e has niether bought a beast permit nor renewed eir beast permit in the past 30 days, eir Beast Permitted switch is set to False. } Create a rule with title "Playing with Birds", power 1.0, and the following text: { Except as otherwise specified by the rules, the owner of a bird CAN play with it by announcement, specifying any values needed to interpret the bird's effects. When a bird is played with, the Rule defining that bird applies the effects in that bird's scroll, and then that bird is transferred to Agora. } Create a rule with title "Bird Migration", power 1.0, and the following text: { A player CAN buy bird food by paying a fee of 5 boatloads of coins. A player CAN release a specified bird e owns, by announcement. When a bird is released, it is transferred to Agora. Once per month, a Beast Permitted Player CAN transfer a specified bird owned by Agora to emself by announcement. Once per month, the Avicultor CAN publish a migration notice by announcement, specifying all necessary information and choices; this constitutes eir monthly report. The Avicultor SHALL publish such a notice in a timely fashion after the beginning of each Agoran month. The number of times each player bought bird food in the previous month is included in the migration notice. A bird not owned by the player(s) who bought bird food the most times during the previous month is a Hungry Bird. For each Hungry Bird, a random choice among all players who bought bird food during the previous month is included alongside that bird in the migration notice. When a migration notice is published, Hungry Birds are transferred to their corresponding randomly chosen players in an order specified by the migration notice. If a bird being transferred to a player would cause that player to have more birds than the number of times e bought bird food during the previous month, that bird is instead transferred to Agora. } Create a rule with title "One with Nature", power 1.0, and the following text: { A player CAN, by announcement, Free the Birds, specifying a single player that owns 10 or more birds, provided that no person has won the game by doing so in the past 30 days. When the Birds are Freed, the specified player wins the game. If a player won the game in this manner 4 days ago, then all existing birds are transferred to Agora and permits expire. } Create a rule with title "The Birds", power 1.0, and the following text: { 'The playmate' is the player who played with the bird to make its scroll activate. Players are ENCOURAGED to propose an addition to this rule if it has not been changed within the last 30 days. The following birds are defined, one per paragraph, with the following format: Bird Name: Scroll. - Seagull: A specified player (defaulting to the playmate if not specified) buys bird food 3 times. - Goldfinch: A specified player (defaulting to the playmate if not specified) gains N boatloads of coins, where N is the number of times e has bought bird food this month. - Raven: A specified bird is transferred to Agora. - Emu: A specified player gains 1 blot. - Owl: A specified player (defaulting to the playmate if not specified) gains the Grant associated with a specified Ministry. - Magpie: A specified bird that is owned by a player is transferred to the playmate. - Pigeon: The playmate gains 2 blots and 1 Blot-B-Gone. - Penguin: If the playmate is Beast Permitted, e gains 1 Winsome, 1 Blot-B-Gone, 1 Pendant, and 1 Votive.
