[Bnomic-private] Proposal: WBE

[Wonko]

[[ It's like vSOI, except spiffier. Wow, I should make that the company
motto. It's another company which will produce things, except with some of
the realism which Orc was complaining was absent from vSOI - it has a
limited supply of resources, and employees are expected to work for the
company, gathering Grid Objects to donate to the Raw Material supply.]]


{{
__Wealthy Bastard goes Public__

Create the following Rule:
{{
__Wealthy Bastard Enterprises__ {*(WBE),1*}
There exists a Society called Weathy Bastard Enterprises, or WBE.

WBE has a Resource Pool of BNS.

Any player may give BNS in eir possession to WBE by declaring that they do
so in a public Forum.

WBE has a number associated with it called its Raw Materials.

There exist passable SO's called Wealthy Bastard Service Garages.
A player who is on a Service Garage or in a square consecutive to a Service
Garage may give Carryable Objects in eir possession to WBE. When this
happens, the object is destroyed, and the Raw Materials increases by a
certain amount.

Only the following types of Grid Objects may be given to WBE, and they
increase the Raw Materials by the amount following them:
Beer Cans           10
Balls of Wax        10
Towels              10
Piles of Kindling   15
Big Sticks          20
Athames             20
Small Lumps         30
Sledge-O-Matics     40
Shields             50
Large Lumps         70

One member of WBE is said to be the Wealthy Bastard, or Boss. All other
members may be refferred to as Employees. At the beginning of each nweek, 55
BNS is transferred from WBE to the Boss of WBE, and 11 BNS is transferred
from WBE to each Employee of WBE. The Wealthy Bastard may change either of
these two salaries by declaring so in a public forum.

Non-employee players may join WBE if they request to join, and the Boss
declares that they may join.

The Boss may oust any employee from WBE at will.

If at any time WBE has no Boss, the employee who has been an employee the
longest becomes the Boss.

The Ministry of WBE is a Ministry. The Ministry of WBE may only be held by
the Boss of WBE. The Minister of WBE is responsible for keeping track of
WBE's finances, salaries, and raw materials.
