Title: Territory
1. There exist game entities known as pieces of territory, which represent a location where players and other game entities may exist. a. Players may own territory. b. All players in the game, active or otherwise, at the time of this proposal's passing, are granted a piece of territory. c. New players joining the game are also granted a piece of territory. d. When granted territory for the first time, a player is moved into his or her territory. e. All pieces of territory are identical except for their contents.
2. Restrictions on territory: a. No player may take, receive, or inhabit any territory they do not own unless specifically allowed to do so by the rules. b. No player or game entity may have a location other than in a territory, with the exception of territory itself. c. Territory may not be inside another piece of territory. d. If a player is inactive for 10 days, they lose possession of their territory and it is then owned by no one.
3. Usefulness of territory a. If at any time one and only one player owns all the territory in the game, but is not the only player in the game, that player wins and the game ends.
=================
Commentary:
I figured we should have something besides rules about rules, so territory ought to give us something to play with. It doesn't do much at the moment, but once it's in place we can mess with it and make other rules about it.

I like this with the exception of 2d. It looks like this game will take some time and itīs likely to get inactive at some time. No chance to vote is a high enough penalty. Maybe itīs time for a new player state, like losing something after 30 or whatever days of inactivity.

Well it's actually 20 days of doing nothing, since it takes 10 days to become inactive in the first place. But I have no problem with amending the proposal to remove 2d.

Okay, I'll change 2d to the following, and would like to take this to voting.
2. d. If a player leaves the game, they lose possession of their territory and it is then owned by no one.
