Proposal: Pick Your Own Take 3...With Bonus Features

Reword Rule 11 - The World to:

A number of Organisations exist, each with a Name, and a Reality Index signifying the extent of their interaction with the world (with a minimum of zero).

Illuminati may control any number of Organisations. This control is tracked as a list in a single GNDT field for each Illuminati, with the Reality Indices given in brackets after each Organisation. (If a Reality Index changes for an Organisation, all lists it appears in must be updated.)

Initially, Illuminati control no Organisations. An Illuminatus may spend X points of its own Influence, where X is at least 12, to create a new Organisation with a Reality Index of X, and gain control of it (provided that that Organisation is not currently under the control of another Illuminatus).

An Illuminatus may also attempt to take Control of an Organisation controlled by another Illuminatus. In order for an Illuminatus to attempt this, e must be on the Official List of that Organisation, have at least twice the Influence of the Controller of the Organisation, and not have any other attempted takeovers pending. If these Conditions are met, then the Illuminatus may make a post to the blog entitled "Attempted Takeover: [Organisation]" and must include, within this post, a whole number N with a value less than eir current Influence. The Illuminatus Rex must then respond to this post in one of two ways, depending on the legality of the Takeover and the value of N. If the attempted takeover is legal (as defined in the second sentence of this paragraph) and N is greater than the sum of the Influence values of all other Illuminati on the Official List of that Organisation, then the Illuminatus Rex must respond with a :FOR: vote, subtract N from the Influence of the Illuminatus taking over, switch Control of the Organisation in the GNDT, remove the previous Controller of the Organisation from the Organisation's Official List, and send a copy of the Member List to the new Controller. If, however, the necessary conditions are not met, or N is not greater than the sum of the Influence values of all other Illuminati on the Official List of the Organisation, then the Illuminatus Rex must respond with an :AGAINST: vote, remove the Illuminatus attempting the takeover from the Organisation's Official List, and subtract N from that Illuminatus's Influence.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Any Organisations which were created prior to this Rule's enactment shall have their Reality Index set to 25, unless their owner used the word "fnord" in their vote on this proposal, in which case the Organisations belonging to that Illuminatus shall be dissolved, and the Illuminatus refunded 25 Influence per dissolved Organisation. In addition, if at least 6 of the FOR votes for this proposal are preceded by the word "Junkyard," then the paragraph beginning "An Illuminatus may also" shall not be added to the ruleset.

I fixed the insta-win loophole of the previous "pick your own" attempts (by increasing the minimum creation cost), and added a twist so as not to be entirely derivative.
