Proposal: Surf or die

On the passage of this proposal, set the King of the Beach's props to seven halves (three and one-half) of the mean Props of all players (excluding the King of the Beach) at the time of passage and append the following rules to the rule set.

Rule 14: Surf or die.

A Gremmie loses 10 Props per Aeon that passes where the Gremmie did not surf (to be subtracted at the beginning of the next Aeon).

Rule 11 is hereby changed to read:

“Each Gremmie has a Skill listed in the GNDT as a positive number. Once a day, a Gremmie who owns a Board may attempt to catch a wave by posting "Go Surfing DICE6" to the GNDT. If the DICE roll is less than or equal to the Gremmie's base Skill plus the bonus from their Board, the attempt is successful, and the Gremmie may increase their Props by 10*D, where D is the numerical value of the DICE role and * denotes multiplication; otherwise, the Gremmie must decrease their Props by 10*D."

A single point increment is no incentive to surf--nobody has tried to catch a wave yet! I hope that this will motivate players to get in the water. Moreover, with the next rule, we may see some action.

Rule 15: 99-pound weakling.

Any Gremmie having more Props than the current King of the Beach may declare victory.

I realize that we already have a victory condition, but currently is it inactive. We've got some new propositions pending and I think that things will pick up shortly. Vote on!
