Final Ruleset
Proposals of Interest
- The Core Mechanic made a rule that was not meant to be followed; instead it would be code to be executed.
- Code Monkey allowed players to run JavaScript from the Master Control Program using a special website.
- Gigo gave each player Input and Output GNDT values, defaulting to the first two and last two letters of their names.
- Clean Machine brought back cleanup proposals from the previous dynasty.
- The Unemperor created a special case rule that changed the way Deferentials work.
- Walls of Fire and Light gave each person a firewall, which was an 8x8 grid of characters.
- Forty Two created a way to change GNDT values as output of the Master Control Program.
- v0.1 created a very basic Master Control Program to read the GNDT.
- needs more randomization expanded the Master Control Program to include some random generation utilities.
- Clean Deterministic Hardware simplified how the MCP would run, and implemented random seeds.
- Front Door simplified the way Input and Output worked.
- dictionary of fire made more functions, relating to numberpads.
- Stay on Target! allowed players to target each other when running the MCP.
- In Like Flynn expanded the Access mechanic.
- Crown Joules gave every player a GNDT-tracked Energy switch. If one player had more energy than any other player, they could win under this rule.
- Resting Energy set each player's Energy to 1 instead of 0, allowing for a win.
Ascension
When the proposal Resting Energy passed, Kevan adminned it. This proposal increased everyone's energy switch to 1 from 0. As having more energy than any other person was a win condition, this would have worked perfectly if it had all happened simultaniously, but since Kevan was the first row in the GNDT, they were able to achieve victory by setting their Energy first.
