New Court Procedure
Posted: Fri Jan 17, 2025 1:33 pm
Having given it some thought, we will be doing the following for court:
1) For each remaining court day, there will be a sign-up thread in OOC chat where you may post that you wish to submit a deal, offering, or what have you.
2) You may (and should) post ghost introductions to your personal fora.
3) When a debate has ended, I will look at the sign-up sheet, go to a personal forum, and post the introduction to the next debate on the list (assuming that you don't beat me to it).
4) If you do not have a ghost post, you will be skipped and go to the end of the line.
If a sign-up sheet starts getting crazy long, consider whether it is worth your time and effort to get ready for a debate that we might not get to and perhaps wait for another auspicious day.
Positives: People can prepare interventions on debates they know are coming, potentially racking up more court points.
Negatives: There's a little artifice to this, but it's how Parliament does it, and that's sort of worked for a while.
Other things Parliament does: Bringing out the Funk, Having/Possessing the Funk, Requiring the Possession/Having of the Funk.
