You may wish to visit another site which contains an accurate snapshot of the gamestate (except proposals) at some time far in the past.

Proposal Information for AlgorithmRemoval

Exists: No
Created: by Alex at 2:22:56 11th December 2003 GMT.
Description: various changes to the first part of rule 34
Expires 2:22:56 27th December 2003 GMT

Replace the first paragraph of rule 34{1} with the text of this proposal following the first asterisk.
*
The gamestate contains a partial mapping from vertices of space to algorithms among those which the ruleset explicitly allows. The image of a vertex under this mapping is said to be the algorithm assigned to the vertex. The following is a type of move with an evaluation period of eleven days: a player may change the image under this mapping of some vertex e owns to any allowed value, including undefined.

What happens when the algorithm of the ferret's focus becomes undefined? --Robert
I don't know. This was a bad idea as it stands.
It would still be nice to allow for this sort of thing in some way. --Alex
The ferret could carry its algorithm rather than glancing back at its focus each day.
