This should be consistent that any given sortition is for a single office. E.g. "a specified office" would allow any office. So: "While a sortition for an office is in its lots period, any player CAN become an option for that office." Also, the second sentence might want to say "for each sortition" just to avoid any risk of accidentally trampling on elections. > > Seven days after a sortition is initiated, the lots period ends.

I don't think this should directly ENABLE the random choice, rather have some Named Action that requires a random choice, with R2505 filling in the requirements. Also, "becomes the officeholder for that office" might be clearer. -- Janet Cobb Assessor, Rulekeepor, Stonemason
