Proposal 4295
An Alternative To Democracy
Studge
Due: Wed Aug 11 13:35:59 1999
Sphere: Anti-Canada Kamikaze Alliance

[It has come to my attention that no other player seems to send in
"obvious" win attempts or emperor attempts that rely on nothing more than
the rampant discordianism of Acka.  Therefore, I decided to sacrifice my
proposal record and score to regularly offer Acka what it so desperately
needs: A Discordian Alternative to the perfidy of Tyrannical Democracy.]

Amend Rule 1 by appending to the bottom the following EMPEROR delimited text.
 
EMPEROR
The player able to take the name of Studge is able to amend, repeal, and/or
create rules, and otherwise modify the ruleset and gamestate as a public
action.

 Ackanomic from invasion.  Whenever Ackanomic is at war with a nomic named

 This Council should determine the specific goals of the war effort (if they
 are not specified elsewhere), and how best to implement them.  The
 President is encouraged to fill Attack Councils with a combination of
 trustworthy Ackans familar with the rules of that nomic and rabidly
 anti-<name> Ackans who want to stop at nothing short of annihilation.

	{{[Here's what this does:

effects.

	Splits the mannna rule to mimic points

	Moves Blue Cross and Rule Numbers into more appropriate places (with
awards and the 1's, respectively)

rules.
