Create a document titled "History of MacroNomic" if it does not already exist. Begin this document with the following text:
"
MacroNomic is not what it used to be. Long, long ago, it was named MicroNomic, in an effort to protest against the size of the laws of other Nomics. Micronomic later became insignificant, and was replaced by MicroNomic II. MicroNomic II became great, but was threatened. In an unprecedented move in Nomic history, MicroNomic II absorbed the two Nomics known as MicroNomic and PNomic. Strengthened by these new citizens, it remnamed itself to MacroNomic, proclaiming its great strength. Then, on April 1, 1998, the first Revolutionary Party seized control, dramatically modifying the rules in an effort against the death that so many good Nomics see. They were very successful. Now, the Nomic is back to health, under the superb rule of our current revolutionary party.

The first revolutionary party was made up of our great fathers, Philo, Henry Towsner, and Ed Murphy.

Create A new section 0-1-1 titled 'Conventions' with the following text delimited by CONVENTIONS
CONVENTIONS
Rules under this section are conventions on how certain parts of the rules shall be interpreted in cases where it is confusing or ambiguous.
CONVENTIONS

Move section 0-1-0 'Spelling' to section 0-1-1-0.

Renumber section 0-1-1 to section 0-1-0.

The above was merely to get the conventions section into the right place in the rules.

Create a section 0-1-0-1 'English' with the following ENGLISH delimited text
ENGLISH
In all cases, the meaning of a term in the rules that is not specified as having a specific meaning shall have the meaning granted to it by common use of the english language and the context surrounding the use of the word.

If a term has a specific game defined meaning, that meaning should be as close as possible to the english meaning. [IE: don't choose a word like Baseball to mean the game called soccer]

In section 3-2-1 replace all occurances of CfJ with the following phrase 'Call For Judgement'. Change the title ofd Section 3-2-1 to 'Calls for Judgement' The word CFJ only has meaning to someone who is familiar with Nomics and Nomic History. I'd rather make it easier for newer players to read/nderstand the rules.
The title and its appostrophe were just bad english anyway. In section 3-2-2-0, replace the phrase 'The only players who may vote on a case are those who can vote on its parent case.' with 'The only players who may vote on a penalty are those who can vote on its parent case'.

Create a new setion 0-0-0 titled Paradox Resolution with the following ANTI_PARADOX delimited text

If ever the game should reach a state that is unplayable, or a situation exists where two rules are mutually exclusive and no precedence can be determined by normal means, then any player may submit a Paradox Declaration, which is a type of Referendum stating that such a state as mentioned above exists. As soon as such a Declaration is issued, other game play will pause until the Declaration has been resolved in accordance with this rule is such play was still possibly. The valid votes for a Paradox Declaration shall be YES or NO, and the judges shall be the Revolutionary Party at the time the Declaration was issued, or the previously extant Revolutionary Party if the game has corrupted in such a way that the makeup of the current Revolutionary party is not obvious. Should the outcome of the vote on the Paradox Declaration, be YES, then the following step will ensue in order.
a) The Revolutionary Party (or one of it's members) will distribute a Paradox Resolution, which is a type of Referendum with valid votes of YES or NO and valid judges being the judges of the preceding Paradox Declaration.
b) If the outcome of the Paradox Resolution is a vote of YES, then the details of the Resolution shall be enacted into the Macronomic Ruleset as stated, and this proceedure shall end.
c) If the outcome was NO, then proceed to step a. Normal game play now resumes under the fixed ruleset. This rule may not be repealed or amended except by the passage of a proposal on which no AGAINST or LOYAL votes were cast. This rule claims precedence over all other rules and denies any rule the ability to claim precedence over itself.
ANTI_PARADOX
There is still one flaw in the above in that it doesn't stop the RP from unilaterally declaring a paradox and thus altering the ruleset at whim through a paradox resolution, but that is in itself, the heart of the paradox of self-amendment. As long as any way exists to change the rules, and there is no such thing as a completely inviolate rule, then there will always exsit the possibility for such unilateral usurpation of authority. My hope is that this proposal will get passed, and the RP will not abuse the potential hole here, and that eventually perhaps a better mechanism might replace (by unanimous vote) some or all of the provisions here.

Amend Section 3-0 as follows.
Replace the following VOTING delimited text
VOTING
A player may change eir vote on an Active proposal by notifying the Accountant of the Subclass of that Referendum of such a change.
VOTING
with the following PRIVATE_VOTE delimited text
PRIVATE_VOTE
A player may change eir vote on an Active Referendum by privately notifying the Accountant of the Subclass of that Referendum of such a change.

Votes on any given type of Referendum remain private until the Referendum becomes Inactive, at which point they are revealed publically, unless a specific subclass of Referendum specifies otherwise.
PRIVATE_VOTE

This makes referendums and voting be private by default, which I think is a good thing. It also means one cannot predict the way a proposal will go in advance and thus change vote (if voting in a specific direction ever gains any meaning).
It of course (by the definition of private notification) doesn't stop someone from voluntarily making their vote public if they desire.

OLD
If a player has submitted a proposal and the Secretary of Truth has not yet distributed it, that player may retract that proposal. The Secretary of Truth shall not distribute a retracted proposal, and it will not become Active.
OLD

with the following RETRACT delimited text
RETRACT
Any player may retract a proposal that they have submitted that is either Active or PreActive.
If the proposal is Active, then all votes already cast on the Proposal are discarded, the proposal immediately becomes Inactive, and the proposer loses 3 Loyalty points.
If the Proposal is PreActive, then the proposer loses no loyalty points, the proposal commodities used in the construction of the proposal are refunded tothe proposer, and the proposal becomes InActive. The Secretary of Truth will not distribute a proposal that becomes InActive in this manner.
RETRACT

I will note that this proposal doesn't really do much other than effectively third the penalty for a failing proposal unless the hidden voting proposal passes. However, that in and of itself isn't a horrible thing. I would hope that the two together would encourage people to think through their proposals, but still have a way to get rid of them if they really need to for some reason.

PENALCODE
Penalties are a subclass of referenda. The accountant for penalties is the Secretary of Justice. Penalties are created and change states along with their parent cases. The only players who may vote on a case are those who can vote on its parent case. Possible votes are a loss of LOYALTY, expulsion, the loss of some number of objects. Instead of the inactive state, a penalty becomes either accepted or rejected, as specified by its parent. When a penalty becomes accepted, if a majority of those able to vote on it voted the same way, then they appropriate Secretaries should carry out the penalty.

This is going to reorganize the players section a bit and add a small bit to it. The added bit is to give new players 1 of each commodity so that they can at least make one proposal to help them get started. It also seperates the actions of what happens when players leave the game and join the game and join the game for the first time into discrete sections so that they can be modified more cleanly in the future. I apologize in advance for how long this is.

Move section 2-0-0 to section 2-1-0.

Amend Section 2-0: Players to read as delimited by PLAYERS
PLAYERS
The Secretary of Friendship is responsible for tracking who the players are, and which are members of the Revolutionary Party as well as the email address and real names associated with each player.

Each player in the game has exactly one real name, a set of aliases, and possibly multiple email addresses associated with that name.

Any real person may only have a single player in the game at any given time.
PLAYERS

Create a section 2-0-0 titled "Joining the game" with the following JOINING delimited text.
JOINING
A Player joins the game by privately notifying the Secretary of Friendship of their intent to join, their real name and an alias (which defaults to their real name).

If the joining player's alias is not already in use by another player, then the Secretary of Friendship shall publically inform all players that the new player has joined, their name, their real name and their email address.

A player is a new player if no player with that email address has previously been a player. [Yes, this is abusable by multiple email addresses, but let's assume people will be honest as there is no real way to insure this]

A player joining the game shall have a Loyalty score of 0.

When a player joins Macronomic, if there are fewer than 100 acres of farmland being managed by all other players, 10 acres of farmland are placed under the management of the joining player.

When a new player joins Macronomic, 1 commodity of each type is placed under the management of the joining player.

When a new player joins MacroNomic the Secretary of the University assignes them a random, non-teaching professor, unless there are no non-teaching professors or the player requested a specific professor. If the joining player requested a specific professor, and that professor is non-teaching, then that professor will be assigned to the student.

While a player is on vacation, the temporary Secretary performs all duties normally performed by that player. When a player returns from vacation, e must publicly announce that fact, and at that point resumes all of eir duties. A player is also considered to have returned from vacation 6 weeks after e left. While a player is on vacation, e may not perform any official game action. A player on vacation may also not be penalized in any way for actions not performed while on vacation.

An RPG is a sub-type of Referenda and the Accountant for RPGs is the Secretary of Entertainment.
An RPG must define the following lettered items in order to be a valid RPG.
a) The name of the game.
b) The number of players.
c) The rules of the game.
d) A method for determining the winner of an instance of the game.
If an RPG is submitted to the Secretary of Entertainment that is not valid as above, the Secretary must notify the submitting player and shall not distribute the RPG, otherwise, the RPG shall be distributed within 3 days.

The legal votes for an RPG are YES and NO. All player's votes on an RPG are initially set to NO.

When an RPG becomes inactive, if at least as many players have voted YES as have voted NO then the RPG is accepted. [IE, 50% or greater is sufficient to pass the RPG]

If the RPG is accepted, then a new rule shall be created as a descendant of this rule titled with the name of the game, and the text of the rule shall be the text of the RPG as distributed. The number of this descendant shall be the least integer greater than or equal to 0 which creates a new descendant.

Amend 4-1 to read as delimited by NEWITA
NEWITA
The Secretary of Economics is MacroNomic's Customs Officer. If MacroNomic is not a member of the ITA, the Secretary of Love should request entrance unless MacroNomic's request was previously denied. The State owns all things imported from other nomics. The Secretary of Economics is MacroNomic's Customs Officer. E should accept all non-conditional trade offers. E should publicly announce when MacroNomic receives a conditional trade offer is the conditional portion includes only exportable objects, otherwise e should reject it. Any player may publicly offer to account for a publicly announced trade. If that player holds enough objects to pay the conditional portion, then the trade happens.

A player of MacroNomic may also offer a trade to another nomic. E does so by personally informing the Secretary of Economics of the trade. If the player holds enough objects to handle eir side of the trade then the Secretary of Economics should offer the trade on behalf of MacroNomic. If the trade is accepted then it happens, and is accounted for by the offering player.

When a trade happens the accounting player stops holding everything which MacroNomic will cease to own after the trade. A Foreign Good is created for everything MacroNomic gets from the trade for which MacroNomic is not the Nomic of Origin, and the accounting player holds those objects. All objects for which MacroNomic is the Nomic of Origin become owned by MacroNomic and are held by the accounting player. MacroNomic ceases to own everything given away by the trade.

Replace "All Objects are owned by the State, but may be held and collected by the players" in rule 6-0 with "All Objects are owned by a nomic, but those owned by MacroNomic may be held and collected by the players"

Create rule 0-4-0, "The History of MacroNomic" and assign it the following PROPAGANDA-delimited text
PROPAGANDA
There is an official History of MacroNomic. The Secretary of the Central Committee, and only the SoCC, may propose changes to it. These changes are a type of referenda known as a Correction. The SoCC is the Accountant for a Correction. Only members of the Revolutionary Party may vote on Corrections. They may vote FOR or AGAINST. All votes are initially FOR. After being Active for three days, a Correction becomes Inactive. When in becomes Inactive, if a majority of the votes were FOR, the Correction happens, otherwise it does not. A Correction may only consist of changes to the History of MacroNomic, and not to anything else.

The History of MacroNomic need not corrospond to reality, but it should emphasize our glowing and throbbing history of hearts and souls inspired by our wonderful principles and traditions.
PROPAGANDA
Set the History of MacroNomic to be blank.

For reference, the description of what the History should be was copied almost verbatim by a resolution from the Texas House of Representatives regarding American history texts.

Replace "60 days" in rule 5 with "90 days" I had originally intended one paper to be written each month, I think I wrote it wrong when I did the proposal though.

Replace "The professor is expected to help the student learn about MacroNomic and how to play until the professor publicly declares that the student has graduated." in rule 5 with "The professor is expected to help the student learn about MacroNomic and how to play until the student has graduated. A student graduates when eir professor publicly declares them to have."

Add the following to the end of the second paragraph of rule 5: "It is appropriate for the professor to make a short speech at this time."

Replace all occurances of the word "Active2" in rule 5 with "Approvable"

Replace all occurances of the word "Active" in rule 5 with "Censorable"

All Active papers become Censorable. All Active2 papers become Approvable.

Move the last sentence of rule 5 to the end of the third paragraph.

At the end of the fifth paragraph of rule 5 add "When a paper is accepted, the player who proposed it gains 3 LOYALTY." This is a small payment, and it makes sense, since the player has glorified MN.

Move the second, sixth, and seventh paragraphs of rule 5 into a new section, 5-0, named "Professors", retaining their order. Move the third, fourth, and fifth paragraphs of rule 5 into a new section, 5-1, named "Papers".

These are largely cosmetic changes, along with a few clarifications and some minor adjustments. As for splitting it, it's always bothered me that it's the largest rules in the game. It's the only rule I didn't split when I wrote prop 49, and its time has come.

There are three Sovereign Republics in MacroNomic. They are MacroNomic, MicroNomic, and Pnomic. Each Sovereign Republic has a liaison to Internomic. They are the Secretary of Love, the Assistant Secretary for Micronomc Foreign Affairs, and the Seargent of the Occupying Force in Command of Foreign Matters. If a player other than the SoCC is ever the liaison for more than one Republic then the position listed last in this rule is immediately transfered to the SoCC. If a Republic is not a voting member of Internomic then its liaison should take the neccessary steps to make it one.

When an Internomic proposal is made, the Secretary of Love will create a INP and privately inform the RP of it. The liaisons for each Sovereign Republic should then vote as specified by the INP. If any Republic is selected to judge an Internomic CFJ then the liason from that Republic will create an INCFJ and privately inform the RP of it. That liason should inform Internomic of the decision of the CFJ, as decided by the INCFJ, and should write reasoning to support it. A player may submit a proposal to Internomic by privately informing the liaison of any of the Republics of the proposal they would like to make.

Public messages sent to the official list (if such a list exists) shall be deemed to have occured at the time they are recieved by the machine hosting the official list. Otherwise, they shall be deemed to have occured at the time the message was recieved by the Secratary of the Central Committee.

Private and Personal message are deemed to have happened at the earliest time which the message was recieved by the relevant person or persons, or by the machine hosting the official list, if such a list exists and the message was private and sent to the list.

PRIZE
This gives people a lot of loyalty for winning sub-games, and so is somewhat incompatable with prop 103 (they do work together, it is just not recomended).

WORLDTAKEOVER
If a player has more than 50% of the vote farms it is pretty much impossible for anyone else to win, so I have that person win automatically, which stops the game from going on forever with nothing happening.

Rewrite section 6-0-1 to read as delimited by RETRADE
RETRADE
Any object that is defined as a tradeable object may be exchanged between players. A player initiates a trade by publicly stating the offer and what if anything is required in return and the type of trade. Unless otherwise specified in the rules objects may only be trade in positive integer quantities and a player may not offer more of an object then they have. A trade may only include tradeable objects. Any player who owns enough of everything required in return may accept the offer publicly.

A trade may be either an instance trade or a repeated trade. If the trade is an instance trade then as soon as it is accepted the objects are transfered. When a repeated trade is offered the offering player must also specify under what conditions the trade should occur. Whenever those conditions occur, the trade happens. The conditions for a repeated trade may only involve times and dates, not things happening in the game.

The text of a proposal must explicitly and unambiguously describe one or more changes to the gamestate.

Modify Section 5-0 paragraph three to read as follows delimited by PROF
PROF
If at any time there are no non-teaching Professors, then the members of the Ruling Party who are not Professors shall become Acting Professors. If all members of the RP are already Acting Professors or Professors and there are no non-teaching Professors, then one prole chosen at random who is not a student shall become an Acting Professor. An Acting Professor has all of the duties and responsibilities of a Professor. If there are ever any non-teaching Professors then the following occurs. All non-teaching Acting Professors lose their Professorship immediately. All teaching Acting Professors lose their Professorship when their current student graduates.

This basically moves the choice of acting professorship earlier instead of waiting until it's needed. It also cleans up the language slightly.

A player who has at least one Trotsky point may perform a Trotsky action by publicly announcing eir intent to do so. A player who has fewer than 0 Trotsky points immediately has 0 Trotsky points. Trotsky points are tracked by the Secretary of the Revolution.

A member of the Revolutionary Party with at least 50 Trotsky points may go into Voluntary Exile. A player in Voluntary Exile may not perform Trotsky actions, regardless of what rule 2-2-0 says.

Regardless of any other rules, a player in Voluntary Exile may not become the Secretary of the Proletariat or a member of the Revolutionary Party, and e is not counted when determining the eligibility of other players for the Revolutionary Party.

A player may return from Voluntary Exile at any time by publicly announcing eir intent to do so, at which time they lose 50 Trotsky points. When a player wins all players in Voluntary Exile lose 50 Trotsky points and leave Voluntary Exile as soon as the game is paused.

For the purposes of the game, MacroNomic experienced a time-warp, which brought it from July 25, 1998 to August 1, 1998. In that period, no actions occured, and no MacroNmoic clocks or calendars progressed at all. After stumbling out of the time-warp a week later, the people of MacroNomic realized what had happened, and all clocks and calendars were updated one week accordingly; however, for the purposes of the rules only an infinitessimal amount of time passed, and so no bonuses or penalties were recieved by any parties. This bizzare phenomenon has been known to occur when many influential players in a Nomic need to go on vacation all at once, as was the case this time. No known reason for this exists, but some fringe scientists think that they can reliably reproduce the strange occurance. However, it has also been noted that these scientists are considered "eccentric" in the same way the sun is considered "warm". No panic concerning the time-warp is neccesary, as everything shall proceed in the most logical manner.

FARMER
A sub-proposal is a subclass of referenda. The Secretary of Truth is the Accountant for sub-proposals. They may only be created when a proposal defines one, and they are created and change states along with that proposal. NONE is always a legal vote for a sub-proposal, and a proposal which defines a sub-proposal must define at least two more. When a proposal which has a sub-proposal is accepted, the sub-proposal is also accepted. In any other circumstances, the sub-proposal simply becomes inactive. If a sub-proposal is accepted (thereby becoming inactive) then the winning possibility is selected. Corresponding to every actual vote on a sub-proposal a player has, there is a number of Effective Votes on that sub-proposal equal to the number of acres of farmland e manages. All effective votes of a player on a sub-proposal are of the same vote as the actual vote e cast. The winning possibility for the sub-proposal is the vote other than NONE which received the most Effective Votes, and the one listed first in the proposal if there is more than one; instead of this method a the proposal may specify a different way in which the winning possibiility (WP) is determined. Any instruction within the proposal which are conditional on the selected WP should then be treated as if they were part of a proposal accepted without a sub-proposal.

A collective proposal has a collectivity referendum attatched to it.

If the collectivity is FOR when it becomes inactive then the player who made the proposal will receive the commodities put into the proposal and nothing else when the proposal becomes inactive, regardless of result; the author of the proposal will be listed as "(Proposer name), et. al." if no list of names was given, or "(Proposer name), (name list)" is a list was given; this sentence takes priority over rule 3-1.

Amend Section 6-1-0-2: Vote Farms by appending the following REALESTATE-delimited paragraph, where 'x' is replaced by the Winning Possibility of the first Sub-Proposal:
REALESTATE
The State is required to accept all offers of a player offering x or more vouchers per acre of farmland, if it is possible for The State to do so and not prohibited elsewhere.
REALESTATE

If the winning possibility of the second Sub-Proposal is SAFE, append to that paragraph the following SAFER-delimited text:
SAFER
If performing the trade would give that player 40% or more of the acres of farmland, then The State must refuse the offer.
SAFER
I suggest that if you vote 5 on the first Sub-Proposal you vote SAFE on the second; otherwise, it will be too easy to buy a win (well, actually it would still cost 450 vouchers, but I feel better either having it cost 900 vouchers or not letting you buy a win). I do think that if a person has earned enough vouchers, though, they do deserve to be able to win, especially since after earning that many vouchers they have probably already won one or two games (or three or four) by loyalty. Hm, now that I think about it, to get 450 vouchers you'd need to have 450 props pass, and that means you'd have already recieved a minumum of 6750 loyalty points (ignoring the small number of vouchers recieved for secretartial positions) and so would have won 6 games and be close to winning a seventh. So go ahead and vote 5 and GREEDY.

The Secretary of Foreign Trade is MacroNomic's Customs Officer. If MacroNomic is not a member of the ITA, the Secretary of Love should request entrance unless MacroNomic's request was previously denied. The State owns all things imported from other nomics. The Secretary of Foreign Trade is MacroNomic's Customs Officer. E should accept all non-conditional trade offers. E should publicly announce when MacroNomic receives a conditional trade offer if the conditional portion includes only exportable objects, otherwise e should reject it. Any player may publicly offer to account for a publicly announced trade. If that player holds enough objects to pay the conditional portion, then the trade happens.

A player of MacroNomic may also offer a trade to another nomic. E does so by personally informing the Secretary of Foreign Trade of the trade. If the player holds enough objects to handle eir side of the trade then the Secretary of Foreign Trade should offer the trade on behalf of MacroNomic. If the trade is accepted then it happens, and is accounted for by the offering player.

When a trade happens the accounting player stops holding everything which MacroNomic will cease to own after the trade. A Foreign Good is created for everything MacroNomic gets from the trade for which MacroNomic is not the Nomic of Origin, and the accounting player holds those objects. All objects for which MacroNomic is the Nomic of Origin become owned by MacroNomic and are held by the accounting player. MacroNomic ceases to own everything given away by the trade.

If at any time a majority of the Revolutionary Party has voted the same way on an appointment and the vote is not NONE then the appointment becomes inactive and the player who was selected by the appointment is given the appointed secretaryship.

This is because I hadn't realized when I wrote the foreign trade proposal that a Secretarylet can take over all of the Internomic business.

Some vote farms are given out to officers as Official Farms. Although these can be used to vote normally, they go with the position. When a player becomes Secretary of a position which grants Official Farms, the Farms are transfered to em from whereever they were before. If the player designates an Active Secretarylet, all such Farms e controls are transfered to the Ative Secretarylet. Official Farms from a position may only be traded between Secretarylets and the Secretary of a position, not to any other player. If a player ceases to be a Secretary of Secretarylet of a position, all Official Farms from that position are transfered to the Secretary of that position, or Active Secretarylet if there is one.

If a proposal is marked as both Preemptive and Postemptive, it is Ordinal.

Proposals within a givin catagory become inactive in the order they were distributed. This rule takes priority over rule 3-1-6.
PPAOP

Preemptive proposals should be unusual, the only time I cna think of using them would large reorganizations, where you're dismataling rules by paragraph or sentence and don't want it changed before youre proposal can get at it. For instance P49, the one which reorganized the rules, would have been preemptive. Postemptive proposals are more common, they're for things which include sweeping changes to the ruleset, like "replace all...". You want to be able to get new ones as well. They should be used sparingly, but if properly used, will be very effective without creating extra work for the SoT.

Pamphlets are a subclass of Referenda. The Accountant for Pamphlets is the Secretary of the University. A Pamphlet can be in one of four states: Preactive, Censorable, Approvable, and Inactive.

While a Pamphlet is Censorable, only members of the Revolutionary Party may change eir votes on it. They are encouraged to vote based on whether the text of the Pamphlet "glorifies and enhances the image and reputation of MacroNomic". If, 7 days after a Pamphlet becomes Censorable, there are more FOR votes than AGAINST votes on it from the members of the Revolutionary Party, it becomes Approvable; otherwise, it becomes Inactive.

While a Pamphlet is Approvable, all players may change eir votes on it. They are encouraged to vote based on whether the text of the Paper successfully "accurately educates its readers on the playing of MacroNomic". If, 7 days after a Pamphlet becomes Approvable, there are more FOR votes than AGAINST votes on it, the Pamphlet is said to have been accepted, the player who made it becomes a Professor, and it becomes Inactive; otherwise, it merely becomes Inactive. Pamphlets which become Inactive without being accepted are said to have been rejected. The default vote for a player who submitted the Pamphlet is FOR.

Create rule 3-4, "Scams" with the following SLAKKO delimited text
SLAKKO
A Scam is a kind of referendum. The Secretary of the Revolution is the accountant for Scams. Any player may create a Scam by informing the Secretary of the Revolution of the name of one or more players (possible the one calling the Scam), an action made by that player in the preceding fourteen days, a name for the Scam, which must be different from all other Scam names, and optional reasoning. The legal votes on a Scam are NONE, NOT, ANNOYING, and CLEVER. If when the Scam becomes inactive there are more NOT votes than ANNOYING and CLEVER combined, then there was no Scam and the Scam will be marked as Fake. Otherwise, if there are more ANNOYING votes more CLEVER the players named will lose 5 loyalty and each will receive a medal engraved with "For exploiting the rules for personal gain". Otherwise if there are more CLEVER votes than ANNOYING, the players named will gain 5 loyalty and each will receive a medal engraved with "For exploring the rules for the good of the state". Otherwise the Scam is marked as Ambiguous.

Amend Section 3-2-2-0 to read as follows, delimited by MOREPUNISHMENT:
MOREPUNISHIMENT
Penalties are a subclass of referenda. The accountant for penalties is the Secretary of Justice. Penalties are created and change states along with their parent trials. The only players who may vote on a penalty are those who can vote on its parent trial. Possible votes are any specification of a loss of LOYALTY, a loss of Objects, public ridicule, expulsion, and the loss of voting rights on one or more proposals. Instead of the inactive state, a penalty becomes either accepted or rejected, as specified by its parent. When a penalty becomes accepted, if a majority of those able to vote on it voted the same way, then they appropriate Secretaries should carry out the penalty. If a majority did not vote the same way, the player to whom the penalty applies may chose from the votes.
MOREPUNISHIMENT

This allows judges to take away property in a case, as well as allowing for public ridicule (the least of all of the possible punishments, for very minor crimes). It also fixes a bug where if the judges all disagreed on the punishment, the criminal would get away scot free. Now, they merely get to chose from those choices the judges made.
