[This is a draft based on our team’s Survivor entry. It’s a bit rough, not sure
if some of the changes I made are worth the trouble, but better to get
something out there and not keep sitting on it]

Amend Rule 1728 "Dependent Action Methods" to read as follows: {
A person CAN, by announcement, create an intent (syn. "table an
intent", "intend") to perform a tabled action, conspicuously and
without obfuscation specifying the action, the tabled action method
(including non-default parameter values), and optionally,
conditions.
A person is a sponsor of an intent if e tabled it, or if e is
authorized to perform its action due to holding a rule-defined
position previously held by the person who tabled the intent.
The decisionmakers for an intent default to all players,
modifiable by the document enabling the action. For a given
tabled intent, a decisionmaker CAN, by announcement:
* Become a supporter ("support" it), unless e tabled or previously
supported it
* Become an objector ("object to" it), unless e previously
objected to it;
* Cease to be a supporter or objector ("withdraw" support/objection)
An intent is mature if it was tabled at least 4 days ago and nobody
withdrew objections from it in the past 24 hours.
An intent is ripe if was tabled within the past 14 days, it is
not spent, the Speaker hasn't objected to it in the past 48 hours,
and its conditions, if any, are met.
A rule purporting to allow a person to perform an action (a "tabled
action") using one of the following methods ("tabled action
methods") allows em to do so by announcement, if, for that
action/method combination:
* Without N Objections, where N is a positive integer: e is a
sponsor of a mature ripe intent with less than N objectors.
* With N Support, where N is a positive integer: e is a
supporter of a ripe intent with at least N supporters.
* With N Agoran Consent, where N is a positive integer multiple of
0.1: e owns or supports a mature ripe intent with supporters
greater than N times its objectors (e SHOULD list supporters and
objectors).
* With T notice: e owns a ripe intent created at least T ago.
Upon eir doing so, the intent becomes spent.
The parameters N and T, if omitted, default to "1" and "4 days"
respectively (e.g. "without objection" means N=1). If a rule
defines N as less than 1 or greater than 8, it is instead treated as
1 or 8, respectively.
}
Retitle Rule 1728 to "Tabled Actions".
Repeal rules 2595 ("Performing a Dependent Action") and 2124 ("Agoran
Satisfaction").
}
