I propose that point "b" below be reworded "they have made no game actions 
for at least 24 hours since the action under consideration." rather than 
the initial wording, as it is less ambiguous.

I consent fully to Jon's proposal for pseudonyms, and propose that it me 
named "the rule of handles" or "the rule of a monarch deposed two days 
after coronation." whichever you prefer. As to the argument about the 
naming rules rule,

I would like them to have some form of numbering, as this way, when there 
are many many rules, it'll be easy to find rules by number - and am fairly 
confident that should rules need to refer to other rules, they can be 
simultaneously introduced. However, I consent to whatever Adam and Martin 
agree on, so long as, again, the final result has no different affect on 
the gameplay than either of the current propositions.
