The motion
To add a new rule
348. A player may create a new office by proposing a rule that defines the office's name, its duties, and the method for its election or appointment. Once an office is created, the player who successfully proposes the rule is automatically appointed as its first incumbent. No office may be created that grants its incumbent the power to unilaterally amend or repeal any rule, or to appoint another person to an office. An office may be granted the duty of managing the distribution of currencies created under rule 319, overseeing the distribution of points awarded under rule 202, managing the distribution of assets created under any other rule, acting as a mediator in disputes over rule 212, providing a public treasury for the distribution of scores, establishing a formal judicial body to interpret the ruleset, overseeing the enforcement of the ruleset's judicial interpretations, managing the distribution of rules proposed during a turn, or managing the distribution of points awarded to the proposer of a rule change adopted by a simple majority under rule 203.This finalizes the administrative framework by allowing for the management of point distributions to ensure institutional stability.
