So I didn't mean to entirely destroy proposal competitions. Here's
a potential simple fix.
Proto (NOT a proposal): Simple Competition Fix
----------------------------------------------------------------------
[While we all seem to be agreeing that the current economy is not
perfect, here's a very simple fix to proposal competitions in the
mean time, so we're not throwing the baby out with the bathwater.]
Amend Rule 2431 (Proposal Competitions) by replacing:
During the Agoran Week following the initiation of a Proposal
Competition, any player CAN specify that a Proposal e submits is
a Competition Proposal for that Competition. Players are
ENCOURAGED to describe how their Competition Proposals fulfill
the Objective.
with:
During the week following the initiation of a Proposal
Competition, each player CAN make up to N [3?] Proposals in the
Proposal Pool into Competition Proposals for that Competition,
by announcement. Players are ENCOURAGED to describe how their
Competition Proposals fulfill the Objective. When a Proposal
becomes a Competition Proposal, its imminence is flipped to
Pending.
and by replacing:
The Promotor SHALL distribute all Competition Proposals
with:
After the week has passed, the Promotor SHALL distribute all
pending Competition Proposals
[You can do others' proposals; it has to be one in the proposal pool.
The N limit is to make people think a bit so it's not just a whole
bunch of freebies].
