[The last part is a drive-by fix.] Amend Rule 2555 ("Blots") by replacing "Once a quarter, the Referee CAN (and SHALL during its first Eastman week) publish a Notice of Clemency" with "Once per quarter, the Referee CAN by announcement (and SHALL during its first Eastman week) issue a Notice of Clemency". Amend Rule 2656 ("Radiance") by replacing "Once a quarter, the Illuminator CAN (and SHALL during its first Eastman week) publish a Notice of Diminution" with "Once per quarter, the Illuminator CAN by announcement (and SHALL during its first Eastman week) issue a Notice of Diminution". [I have always been annoyed by using "CAN publish" as an attempt to authorize an action. To "publish" is already defined, and we have a perfectly method for actions taken by sending a message: "by announcement". I would argue "This is a Notice of X." continues to work under this standard, since one no longer has to explicitly announce that e performs a "by announcement" action in order to take it, and saying that clearly sets forth intent to take the action of "issuing" the Notice.] If, immediately prior to this proposal taking effect (and under the ruleset then in effect), the ADoP had published a Notice of Election in the current quarter, any duty for em to issue a Notice of Election in the current quarter is discharged. If, immediately prior to this proposal taking effect (and under the ruleset then in effect), the Referee had published a Notice of Clemency in the current quarter, any duty for em to issue a Notice of Clemency in the current quarter is discharged. If, immediately prior to this proposal taking effect (and under the ruleset then in effect), the Illuminator had published a Notice of Diminution in the current quarter, any duty for em to issue a Notice of Diminution in the current quarter is discharged. [Clarify that this proposal does not impose any additional duties in the current quarter.] Amend Rule 869 ("How to Join and Leave Agora") by replacing the text "by publishing a message that indicates reasonably clearly" with "by sending a public message that indicates reasonably clearly". [The "message" part of this requirement is already included in the definition of "publish".] Amend Rule 2463 ("Motion of No Confidence") to read as follows: { Any player CAN, with Agoran consent, cause the office of Prime Minister to become vacant, provided that the message in which e does so contains the string "MOTION OF NO CONFIDENCE" in its subject line. Motions of no confidence SHOULD be used whenever Agorans want to shake things up, rather than as a personal judgement of the Prime Minister. } [Remove the double method ("with Agoran consent" and "by publishing [...]") by phrasing it as a condition instead. Also, fix a typo ("missing "be" after "SHOULD").] ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ID: 9255 Title: It's personal Adoption index: 3.0 Author: Janet Co-authors: Amend Rule 2556 ("Penalties") by replacing the text "voting strength of a player" with the text "voting strength of a person". [Fix a bug discovered during Agoran't that lets a person dodge a Blot-based voting strength penalty by deregistering.] //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
