Proto-proposal: allow Speaker deregistration; AI=3
{{{
Amend rule 101 by deleting the words "besides the Speaker".
Amend rule 103 to read:
There should always be exactly one player who is the Speaker.
No one other than a player can be Speaker, and there can never be
more than one Speaker. If there is ever no Speaker then the player
whose most recent registration was earliest becomes the Speaker.
[A Speaker leaving the game is not the disaster that it used to be.
I see no justification for continuing to deny the Speaker eir civil right
to leave the game. Speakership passing to the most senior player was
something I previously put into R786/6 back in 1997 and which stayed in
that rule until 2005.]
