 Proposal 4184
 Blatant Grab for Power (Reprise)
 Slakko
 Due: Mon Jun 14 12:38:25 1999
 Sphere: Hypnotist of Ladies
 Status: accepted

 This is a Modest Proposal.
 
 [The Speaker has a lot of duties as defaults.  One of them no longer
 really seems appropriate, given the range of data tracked by other players 
 and indexed by the Web-Harfer.]
 
 Amend Rule 6-4-1, "Speaker", by removing section (viii), and renumbering
 section (ix) to section (viii).
 
 Amend Rule 6-4-3, "Web-Harfer", by inserting the following
 TRANSFER-delimited text immediately before the text "The Privileges are:"
 
 TRANSFER
 (c) To track any game state information or data that the Rules require 
 to be tracked, but do not specify elsewhere who is to track it, and to
 make that information available to any player on request or as needed
 [e.g. player locations, thread split information].

 Create a new Rule, numbered 2-1-4, with text as delimited by TYRANT below:
 
 TYRANT
 If a proposal is rejected, and exactly one player voted to reject the
 proposal, then that player shall receive the title of Tyrant, and any
 other player who possesses the title of Tyrant shall lose it.  If the 
 player in question was already the Tyrant, then their score shall be
 reset to 0, and the points gained or lost distributed equally amongst all
 other players (rounding away from 0). 
 
 Whenever a player is made Tyrant by application of this rule, their
 Voting Characteristic shall be increased by 1, and they shall receive
 500 Mannna.  However, votes sent to the Tabulator from a player who is
 the Tyrant are only valid if they lie between -100 and 100 inclusive.

Speaker Hearing
Ai! Pedrito!
Due: Mon Jun 21 20:33:18 1999
Sphere: Anti-Canada Kamikaze Alliance

{{[Let's get this settled once and for all]}}

When this proposal passes, a Hearing is called.  Count Tabula is Hearing
Harfer.  The appropriate responses are 
1) "El Presidente?  E's just a puppet head!"
and 
2) "It's Good to be the King"

This is a Serious Hearing

If the result of the hearing is "El Presidente?  E's just a puppet head!",
then amend rule 6-4-1 ("Speaker") section (i) to read in full: "The office
of Speaker is a political office with one seat."

If the result of the hearing is "It's Good to be the King", then amend rule
6-4-1 ("Speaker") section (i) to read in full: "The office of Speaker is a
functional office with one seat."
