{{{
The Lint Screen is a singleton switch, tracked by the [Rulekeepor/Promotor]
with possible values including all lists of text. The items in theIt SHOULD
contain a list of common errors in proposals. Any player may flip The Lint
Screen by adding, modifying, or removing an item with Consent.
It is IMPOSSIBLE to pend a proposal unless two players have publicly stated
that they have reviewed (“linted”) the proposal for the issues listed in the
Lint Screen. [Note that this has no teeth; if necessary, any proposal can still
be passed]
}}}
Example starting Lint Screen; we could set this in the proposal or separately
add each With Consent:
* all gamestate-affecting player actions use the word “CAN” and specify a
mechanism (announcement, Without Objection, etc) [protects against our current
MAYday]
* all actions affecting objects “belonging” to a player ensure that the actor
is that player when appropriate [stamp scam, ais’s retraction scam]
* actions which would be problematic if performed too frequently have a time
limit. [Agency spam scam]
* the changes described in the proposal can be discerned from the proposal
itself, without needing to reference the current ruleset, i.e. by specifying
titles of changed rules and providing previous text instead of replacing rule
text entirely [pet peeve of mine. Don’t know if anybody else minds]
* all rules are created with sufficient power, and the AI is high enough
* created rules are formatted correctly.
We can, of course, add other things as they come up.
