Round 9/Ruleset: Difference between revisions

== Info ==

=== General ===

A "game action" is any action a player may take that would alter the gamestate. A default-method game action is a game action that the rules describe as performable by some persons but do not explicitly provide a method for, or an action which the rules describe as performable in #game-actions.

=== Trade ===

A trade between two players takes place when both players explicitly consent to the trade in #game-actions. A trade between a player and their duck takes place when the player announces it in #game-actions.

== Proposals ==

* Period Two: Thursday, Friday, Saturday

A 🍞 or 🦆 reaction by a player on a Proposal message at the time when the voting period ends constitutes a vote in favor or against, respectively.

== Ducks ==

When a player joins the game, a duck is created in the possession of that player. Each duck has exactly one name, or its name is unset (which is the default case). Name is an essential duck attribute. The owner of a duck may change its name, specifying its new name, by posting in #game-actions.

=== Duck Naming Criteria ===

| Quack Attack || N Quacks, where N is positive and even || 1 Duck || The target loses N/2 quacks

|-

|-

|-

| Divine Scrambler || N Quacks, where N is a positive multiple of 20 || Any one entity possessing at least one God Egg || N/20 God Eggs are transferred from the target to the attacking duck's player

|-

| Adopt || None || Any duck that does not have a parent and is owned by the same player || The attacking duck becomes the target's parent

|}

If the number was none of the above, the duck is Red.

=== Scouting ===

The number rolled on the d12  to commence the scouting mission is the potential quacks. If the duck returns, the duck will have this number of potential quacks added to their existing quacks. For a player's duck to return, the player must wait until after the end of the voting period the duck was sent on the mission. Then the player can then roll a retrieval d12 roll to attempt to retrieve the duck. If the retrieval roll is greater than or equal to the number of potential quacks determined upon the duck's departure, the duck returns. If the duck does not return, its potential quacks decreases by 1, to a minimum of 1. When the player attepts to retrieve the duck, the player may choose to cut their losses by posting their intent in #game-actions. The duck's potential quacks become 1, and the duck returns without requiring a retrieval roll. Only one attempt to retrieve any given duck can be made in any given voting period. Upon return, the potential quacks are added to the returning duck's total quacks and benefits and costs the duck provides to the player are unpaused. If the roll to retrieve the duck is 12 or higher, the owner of the duck will obtain a new duck along with their existing duck.

=== Essential Attributes ===

The Duck Disciple is not owned by any player, but still may be the target of Quacktions. Once per voting period, a player may perform a Quacktion against the Duck Disciple. After this Quacktion resolves, the Duck Disciple then performs a Ritual Quack Attack. This is a Quacktion that can be performed by the Duck Disciple by its own means and without the need for player ownership. If, after performing this Quacktion, the Duck Disciple has 0 or fewer quacks, it perishes.

When a Duck Disciple perishes, all ducks that dealt damage to that Duck Disciple gain 1d6 quacks. Additionally, the owner of the duck that reduced the Duck Disciple to 0 or fewer quacks rolls a d20 on the following table and receives the benefit of that roll.
