Name it "Alliances", and give it the following LETSGOPOLARIZE delimited text. LETSGOPOLARIZE An Alliance is an Intelligent, Non-Trading, Named, Unownable Entity. Beginning one week after this rule is created, if a player has been a Voting Player for one week, does not belong to an Alliance with at least three members, and there exists at least one Alliance, they are assigned to an Alliance which has at least three players at random. A player may join an Alliance at any time, at which point they cease to be members of any other Alliances they belonged to. A player who is not a pseudo-founder may announce eir intent to found an Alliance as a public action by specifying the Alliance's name, at which point they become the pseudo-founder for that proto-Alliance. If, after one week, at least two players have announced eir intent to join that Alliance, then the pseudo-founder may pay the SHF and announce the names of at least two players who announced eir intent to join the Alliance, at which point e stops being a pseudo-founder, the Alliance is formed with the pseudo-founder at the specified players as members, and all members cease to be members of other Alliances. If an Alliance ever has no members, it ceases to exist. One second before the results of a proposal are determined, if more members of a given Alliance have voted FOR than AGAINST, all members of that Alliance who voted AGAINST on that proposal have their votes changed to FOR. One second before the results of a proposal are determined, if more members of a given Alliance have voted AGAINST than FOR, all members of that Alliance who voted FOR on that proposal have their votes changed to AGAINST. LETSGOPOLARIZE Insert as item (d) in 6-4-14, "to track which Alliances players belong to and assign random ones when neccessary." ------------------------------ End of acka-voting Digest V4 #9 *******************************
