Salvete omnes! Here's my not very weekly draft. I'm sorry it's so late. I've been busy IRL (and still am, actually). If everyone's okay with it, I'll publish it soon.

Without N Objections, where N is a positive integer no greater than 8 ("Without Objection" is shorthand for this method with N = 1); 2. With N Support, where N is a positive integer ("With Support" is shorthand for this method with N = 1); 3. With N Agoran Consent, where N is an integer multiple of 0.1 with a minimum of 1 ("With Agoran Consent" is shorthand for this method with N = 1); 4. With Notice; or 5. With T Notice, where T is a time period. N is 1 unless otherwise specified. } Enact a new rule (power=3) entitled “Performing a Dependent Action” with this text: { A rule that purports to allow a person (the performer) to perform an action by a set of one or more dependent actions identified in Rule 1728 thereby allows em to perform the action by announcement if all of the following are true: 1. A person (the initiator) published an announcement of intent that unambiguously, clearly, conspicuously, and without obfuscation specified the action intended to be taken and the method(s) to be used; 2. The announcement referenced in paragraph (1) of this Rule unambiguously, clearly, conspicuously, and without obfuscation states: * the value of T, if the action is to be taken with T Notice; and * the value of N, if N is not equal to 1 and the action is to be taken Without N Objections, With N Support, or With N Agoran Consent; 3. The announcement referenced in paragraph (1) of this Rule was published: * within the 14 days preceding the action, if the action is to be performed With N Support; * between 4 and 14 days preceding the action, if the action is to be performed Without N Objections, With N Agoran Consent, or With Notice; or * between T and 14 days preceding the action, if the action is to be performed With T Notice; 4. At least one of the following is true: * the performer is the initiator; * the initiator was authorized to perform the action due to holding a rule-defined position now held by the performer; or * the initiator is authorized to perform the action, the action depends on support, the performer has supported the intent, and the rule authorizing the performance does not explicitly prohibit supporters from performing it; 5. Agora is Satisfied with the announced intent, as defined by other Rules; and 6. The conditions are all met, if any conditions were stated in the announcement of intent referenced in paragraph (1) of this Rule. The performer SHOULD publish a list of supporters and objectors if the action is to be taken with N Agoran Consent. } ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ID: 8166 Title: Politics Election Bug Fix Adoption index: 2.0 Author: D Margaux Co-authors: twg Amend Rule 2540 as follows: (1) Add this sentence to the end of the first paragraph of Rule 2540: {For each Politician, the player (if any) advising that politician CAN by announcement flip that Politician’s Vote switch.} (2) Replace this text: {If a Post is vacant and either has been so for seven days or more than eleven days have passed since its previous holder Announced Retirement, then the Host CAN and SHALL, in a timely fashion, by announcement end the election and install one of the Politicians with the most votes into the Post.} With this text: {If a Post is vacant and either has been so for seven days or more than eleven days have passed since its previous holder Announced Retirement, then a player advising a Politician with the most votes, or if no such player exists, the Clork, CAN and SHALL, in a timely fashion, by announcement end the election and install one of the Politicians with the most votes into the Post.} ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ID: 8167 Title: Ritual Sacrifice Adoption index: 1.0 Author: G. Co-authors: Create a Rule entitled "The Ritual", Power-0.5, with the following text: Any player CAN perform The Ritual by paying a fee of 7 Coins. The Ritual MUST be performed at least once in every Agoran week. If The Ritual was performed at least once in the previous Agoran week, then the Ruleset is Appeased. If the Ruleset is appeased, then any player CAN banish this rule (cause it to repeal itself) with N Agoran Consent, where N is the maximum of 1.0 and 10/(B+1), rounded up to the nearest 0.1, and B is the number of weeks that the Ruleset has been continuously appeased at the moment of banishment. ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ID: 8168 Title: No more meh Adoption index: 1.0 Author: G. Co-authors: Repeal Rule 2465 (Victory by Apathy). ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ID: 8169 Title: Spaceship Armour Defaults Adoption index: 1.0 Author: twg Co-authors: D Margaux, Telnaior Amend Rule 2591, "Spaceships", by replacing the following: * Armour (an integer switch limited to values from 0 to 10 inclusive). with: * Armour (an integer switch limited to values from 0 to 10 inclusive, defaulting to 10).

Co-authors: Enact a Rule, "Line-item Veto", with the following text: The Comptrollor is an imposed office. When the office is vacant, the ADoP CAN, by announcement, set the Comptrollor to a player chosen at random from the set of current Officers, excepting any player who was most recently the Comptrollor. The ADoP SHALL do so in a timely fashion after the office becomes vacant. When the Comptrollor office has been held for the same player for 30 days, it becomes vacant. A Notice of Veto is a body of text, published by the Comptrollor, clearly, directly, and without obfuscation labelled within the publishing message as being a Notice of Veto. When a Comptrollor publishes a Notice of Veto, the office of Comptrollor becomes vacant. If the text of a Notice of Veto clearly indicates certain provisions within specified Proposals as being vetoed, and the voting period for a decision to adopt the proposal is ongoing when the Notice is published, then the provisions are vetoed. For the purposes of this Rule, each individual change specified within a proposal's text is a "provision". Vetoed provisions in a proposal are prohibited from being applied when the proposal takes effect (that is, that part of the proposal's effect CANNOT be applied). ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ID: 8171 Title: The Tiger Team Adoption index: 1.0 Author: G.
