Spoiler: Incredible silliness with color and glow tags (click to show/hide)

Maybe the dreaded Memetic Plague that will herald the end of the world as we know it has the ability to infect a Semantic Stone, maybe made of Sunstone or Sardonyx or simply sliced Serpentine or Stibnite.

On a more relevant note, I vote NAY/-1 on Topaz's proposal to slow down Greensign's time perception.

I'll vote nay on the time slowing proposal as well.

 Proposals can be made by any player, whether to perform a major action, add a law, or use a different system entirely, such as anarchy, or dictatorship. these can be determined by the normal support of "+1", but can also use "Priority".  Every player has 1 priority by default, and can give away 2 Priority to anyone but themselves or someone with a lower Priority than them to prevent abuse.
If you want to make a proposal, preface the comment with "Proposal;" (or pm me for anonymity). and I will put it here, Preface a comment with "Priority;" (Or pm) in order to give someone priority, or change who is receiving yours. Changing who receives your priority can only be done once in a while.

1 priority is basically a semi-permanent +1 for proposals only.

Gems gain priority to Proposals relating to their specialty.

Ministers gain 1 priority to creating Proposals within their field, and lose one to Proposals outside of it.

Cannot self-nominate for a minister position.

2 turns must proceed before any vote is counted.

A proposal now requires 70% agreement to pass

A vote of at least 30% can now be put forth to allow for delaying of a proposal for a specified amount of turns.

Spoiler: Gem (click to show/hide)

What manner of precious stone do you reside in?: A moonstone that erratically shifts between different colors and shades without pattern or reason, though it shifts between overarching colors far slower.

What goal aside from the resurrection of your creator do you have?: To create new life, just to watch it change and adapt.

What elements and actions are you most attuned to?: Chaos, madness, and the warping of flesh.

'I too agree to no time slowing, for what fun is there in just waiting, when investigation is still viable? Its shape interests me. I propose we look closer and examine.'

Spoiler: P.S. (click to show/hide)

I just spent 3 hours writing a program for that noisy color gradient :l I need a life

EDIT: Dang.

[Kilojoule Proton]

(We seem to be getting a bunch of life or chaos-related players for some reason, not that that is necessarily a bad thing.)

Currently, Ebony's two proposals have the support of 4/4 voters from 4/8 total Stones (prior to Moonstone's status-unknown awakening). I propose that we make it so that a unanimous vote by 50% or so of all awakened Stones, active or not, allows a one-turn resolution, pass or fail. The 50% figure probably needs some adjustment, so raise or lower it as much as you feel necessary.

(With all this adminny stuff going on, I will try not to be too surprised if someone nominates me Minister of Apocalyptically Suffocating Bureaucracy.)

I agree with Ebony's proposals as well. The more we can communicate, the more we can know. I, for one, propose that after this, we attempt to drain as much chaos and order out of a small area as possible at the same time. Seeing as when one is taken, the other flows to fill the void, it would be interesting and informative to see the result. In addition, it would fill our reserves quite nicely.

Topaz has made a Proposal, Moonstone has awoken!, Moonstone has made a proposal.

  You silently watch the creature, and it observes you as well, eventually it begins chuckling, or something similar to that, seeing the contrast between the simple ent and the rainbow colored mask.
It speaks again in the booming voice of it's. "Evlemon ga sever tumon froake lamtevian sa."
