Persistent Ideas

Optional Engagement

Players may choose to not obey an ephemeral rule by saying so in #game-actions. When they do so, they can no longer obey it for the rest of the loop as well. A player who doesn't obey a rule cannot change gamestate based on that rule. If changes to gamestate would affect a player who doesn't obey the rule those changes would affect, they instead don't. If said changes to gamestate that would affect that player would last beyond a loop, those changes begin affecting that player when the next loop begins.

Orbs

Whenever a player is granted coins, subtract 1 from the number of coins granted for each orb in their possession.

A player may, by announcement to #game-actions and specifying a proposal in #standard-proposals or #transtemporal-proposals, revoke an orb in their possession. When the voting period on that proposal ends, count :heavy_plus_sign: and :heavy_minus_sign: reactions from that player on that proposal as an additional vote in favor or against, respectively.

Proposal Rewards

Whenever an standard proposal is adopted, grant 1 coin to the player who proposed it.

Whenever a transtemporal proposal is adopted, grant 2 coins to the player who proposed it.

Micrographomic

Each player is a row and a column on a matrix that contains integers from -10 to 10. When the loop begins, all values in the matrix are reset to 0.

Ephemeral Ideas

Unicorns

Once per phase, any player may have any player randomly selected as the chosen one.

The chosen one may use :trungStonkUp: and :trungStonkDown: to vote in favor or against, respectively, on standard proposals that are in their voting period.

Once per phase in which the chosen one has been randomly selected, the chosen one can choose any ephemeral item, and it is granted to them, by posting to #game-actions.

Once per phase in which the chosen one has been randomly selected, the chosen one can choose any ephemeral item, and each player is granted one of it, by posting to #game-actions.

Once per phase in which the chosen one has been randomly selected, the chosen one may choose to not obey an ephemeral rule by saying so in #game-actions. A player who doesn't obey a rule cannot change gamestate based on that rule. If changes to gamestate would affect a player who doesn't obey the rule those changes would affect, they instead don't. If said changes to gamestate that would affect that player would last beyond the time frame they are disobeying that rule, those changes begin affecting that player normally when the time frame expires.

Once per phase in which the chosen one has been randomly selected, the chosen one must submit a standard proposal. If they don't, everyone is cursed, and all standard proposals for that phase are invalid.

Mana

Mana (singular and plural Mana) is an ephemeral, fungible, non-transferrable item.

Each phase, each player is granted 1 Mana.

Micrographnomic

Each player is a row and a column on a matrix (called the Graph) that contains integers from -10 to 10. Initially, all values in the Graph are 0.

Each row represents a starting point, and each column represents a destination. Each cell represents a directed, weighted edge from the starting point, to the destination, defined by the row and column that cell is in.

Casting spells

A player may revoke any number of Mana by posting to #game-actions and specifying another player. When they do so, update the matrix row of the player who posted and the column of the specified player to its amount plus the amount of mana revoked.

Automatic Spell: Warding Circles

If a cycle (TODO: define that term for this context) is created in the adjacency matrix, grant all players in the cycle N coins, where N is the total edge weight of the cycle. If more than one cycle is created, grant coins for all cycles. Then, set all edges in those cycles to 0.

Spell: Discharge

A player may discharge by posting a to #game-actions. When they do so, for each path to a player from the player who discharged, grant that player N coins, where N is the total number of paths to that player (or something else, whatever). Then set all traversed edges to 0.

Spell: Absorb

Something something, something for the total number of paths to the absorbing player. Then set all traversed edges to 0.
