Pending Proposals

• Rule Amendment Knight Movement Adjustment
  • Modify 16.2 after "If after any player action" to add "that moves a piece on or adds a piece to the board"
  • Inky (talk) 00:31, 14 May 2020 (EDT)
  • YEA: inky
  • Nay:
  • Abstain: lpsmith (I kind of like the super-powered nature of the black knight, but I'd be OK with it being reduced.)

• Rule Constellations
  • Add another section to rule 12: At any time, a player who has three gold stars assigned to them may, as an action, assign the stars to the Cosmic Void and take a card of their choice from the Deck.
  • Inky (talk) 00:31, 14 May 2020 (EDT)
  • YEA: inky, lpsmith

• Rule Pay for Play
  • Add another section to rule 14: Players may take additional board actions in a day beyond the free amount by reducing their score (if the reduction would not put their score below zero). The required amount is 1 point for the first additional action, 2 points for the second, 3 points for the third, and so on.

• Monkey Arcana Proposal Astronomer
  • Special effect: If this card is possessed by a player or a piece owned by a player when this effect occurs, that player may re-assign any two gold stars of their choice. If this card is possessed by the Cosmic Void or a piece owned by the Cosmic Void when the effect occurs, one random player (selected from those with at least one gold star) has one gold star re-assigned to the Cosmic Void.
  • Inky (talk) 00:31, 14 May 2020 (EDT)
  • YEA: inky, lpsmith (Though I suggest an edit to the second sentence to read just "Otherwise, one random player...")

• Monkey Arcana Proposal Equivomancer
  • Special effect: The player who caused this effect to occur may choose between two options: reduce the score of any contestant by up to 10 points, and reduce their own score by twice that amount; or increase the score of any player by up to 20 points and reduce their own score by the same amount. The player may choose a value of zero but not a negative value.

Approved Proposals

• Monkey Arcana Proposal. Tax Collector
  • Special effect: The score of every piece that has a score of 10 or greater is reduced by 10. Any piece that has a score which is less than 10 has its score set to 0.

• Rule Proposal. Capturing adjustment
  • Playing a bit on the board has revealed that the Knight quickly amasses a huge number of cards; enough so that a piece capturing it is likely to outright win the game and cause the players to lose. This is an attempt to mitigate that.
  • Remove 0.8.2 and 0.8.4, and add the following instead:
    • The owner of the capturing piece (if any) divides the cards into two groups: one group becomes points or (if a Monkey Arcana suit) actions, and the other group remains cards. The owner awards one group to themselves, and the other group to the capturing piece itself. (I.e. they can give themselves the points and the piece the cards, or visa versa.) If there is no owner, the Cosmic Void is considered the owner for the purposes of this distribution. All non-player owners always act completely randomly. Cards owned by the Cosmic void are considered both owned by and assigned to the Cosmic Void.

  • Yea: lpsmith, inky (this might benefit from a definition for 'playing a card')

Rejected Proposals

• Monkey Arcana Proposal. Philanthroposit
  • Special effect: Every player's score increases by 10.
  • Jota (talk) 09:09, 8 May 2020 (EDT)
  • YEA: Jota
  • NAY: lpsmith (I think I'd prefer an 'any entity with at least one point is awarded 10 more points.'), inky (with my tags proposal I suggest making this 'every owner' or 'every competitor', although the latter would be kind of wild)
  • ABSTAIN: Matthew

• Monkey Arcana Proposal. Housekeeper
  • Special effect: The player who caused this special effect to occur must, as an action, either A) select up to five cards possessed by players or pieces and return them to the deck (so they are no longer possessed by anyone), or B) indicate that they don't wish to do this at this time.
  • Jota (talk) 09:09, 8 May 2020 (EDT)
  • YEA: Jota
  • NAY: lpsmith (I don't like the 'B' option.), inky (B is subsumed by A anyway, but I think this needs to handle the case where it's not played by a player, doesn't it? Like if the black knight captures someone?)
  • ABSTAIN: Matthew

• Monkey Arcana Proposal. Bartender
  • Special effect: The player who caused this special effect to occur must, as an action, draw as many random cards from the Deck as there are players in the game. That player then gives one of these cards to each player (their choice), removing them from the Deck.
  • Jota (talk) 09:09, 8 May 2020 (EDT)
  • YEA: Jota
  • NAY: lpsmith (maybe s/player/entity with at least one card/ ?), inky (as above, should handle the case where a player doesn't cause it?)
