Actually, there's an interesting question - if the rules have "no force
or effect" do they continue to define the entities, switches, etc.?
I don't think they do[*], which would mean that when they came back into
force the switches would be "newly created" and in default.

[* the rules must define a switch for it to exist, and a rule with no
force or effect includes no force or effect for its definitions - note
R1586 is only power-2 so this "no force or effect" clause would overrule
R1586.  So if the switch doesn't exist while the rule is suspended, it is
recreated when the suspension ends, which means in its default state].

What if, by ratification, we reset all Spaaace and Politics switches to
their default values before suspending?

As commented earlier, I was knocked out of space early on, as have
others.  Willing to sit out of a subgame this long, but not through
a whole revival.

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
ID: 8177
Title: Side-Game Suspension Act (v3)
Adoption index: 3.0
Author: Aris
Co-authors: D Margaux, G.

Enact a new power 3.0 rule, entitled "Side-Game Suspension", with the
following text:


    1. The Spaaace Rules are defined to be Rules 2588, 2589, 2590, 2591,
2592,
       2593 and 2594.

    2. The Politics Rules are defined to be Rules 2533, 2534, 2535, 2536,
2537,
       2538, 2539, 2540, 2586, 2542, and 2543.

    3. Rules to the contrary notwithstanding, the Spaaace Rules are
suspended and
       have no force or effect until Spaaace is Revived.

    4. Rules to the contrary notwithstanding, the Politics Rules are
       suspended and have no force or effect until Politics is Revived.

    5. A player CAN with 2 support Revive Spaaace (unless Spaaace has
already
       been Revived); that player is thereby installed into the office
of Astronomor.

    6. A player CAN with 2 support Revive Politics (unless Politics has
already
       been Revived); that player is thereby installed into the office of
Clork.

    7. If Politics and Spaaace have both been Revived, then any player
CAN cause
       this Rule to repeal itself with Notice.

    8. Any player CAN with Agoran Consent trigger this Rule.  When this
Rule is
       triggered, the following events happen in order: (a) the Politics
Rules are
       automatically repealed in ascending numerical order (unless
Politics has been
       Revived), (b) the Spaaace Rules are automatically repealed in
ascending
       numerical order (unless Spaaace has been Revived), and (c) this
Rule is
       automatically repealed.
