Proposal 315 (Post 106) by Jake The Wolfie: Amend Rule 208 to say the following: There may be no more than X pending proposals at any given time, where X is the largest of either 5, or 5 + 1/2 * (# of active players - 5), rounded down if necessecary. The only exception is when an active player becoming inactive would cause X to be less than the current number of proposals. A pending proposal is a proposal that has not yet been marked as having passed or failed.

Ah, but we're not just interested in objections here. We would like for it to be in the best condition it can be when it is brought to the table. Do you have any suggestions or things you think should be done differently even if you don't object to them?

So Jake.... What do I have to do to convince you to vote Yea to 321? Also, I'm pretty sure 315 was rejected as of Charles510's vote so we only have one outstanding proposal.
I just went ahead and did it, but it is encouraged to do it as soon as you get a chance. (You don't have to do it immediately per say, just in a reasonable time frame.)

Proposal 322: A Conditional Vote is defined to be the following: If a player inserts the keywords "Conditional" before the Yea or Nay, and includes the condition within the line that contains the vote in bold, then the vote will a Conditional Vote. A Conditional Vote will only count when the bolded condition becomes true. If the bolded condition is impossible, the vote will be voided. While the bolded condition is possible but has not occurred yet, the player will not vote.
Proposal 323: If a player breaks any rule, they cannot earn points for the next 24 hours. If the same player breaks any rule within this timeframe, add 24 more hours to the timeframe. In addition, that player loses 1 point. For each additional rule break by the same player within this timeframe, they lose X points, where X equals how many rules that player has broken. In addition, 24 hours will be added to their timeframe.
Each of us, going in some order, gets to create a new Temporary Rule (Starting at T000). These rules go into effect immediately, but there are a few restrictions that they have, mainly no instant wins (such as Player X gains 100 points) and no changing the structure of this process (such as Player Y is considered to be inactive while this rule exists)
On your turn, you may choose to either create a Temporary Rule, or retract a Temporary Rule.
Of course, we could also do this in a miniature game of nomic within our game of nomic, which might be fun.
A miniature board game (similar to Betrayal at the Haunted House on the Hill), where certain rules only apply in certain rooms. Any time a player investigates a room, they may either create the first rule in that room, or decide what the room looks like (with everyone else voting on the other property of the room)

VOTE: Aye 322
The temporary rule game sounds like a right old pain to balance.
The room concept is a pretty flexible one that we can certainly consider, but I'm very apprehensive about letting any one player pick a room's rule solely because of its potential to provide huge advantages if not outright break the game. Again, just hard to balance.
If you want to democratically institute special rooms with special rules that can be voluntarily entered or exited by all I think you are free to do so through proposals.
