Once per turn, each player can pay a token to cause one non-player life form instance to perform one legal action of the player's choice. Multiple players may use tokens on the same life form instance only if it is legal for that life form to act more than once. Tokens may be used regardless of whether a player is manifested as a life form. Example: Suppose there is exactly one non-player zombie in existence, and players A, B, and C all have tokens. Player A uses a token to make the zombie eat player B's brains. Player B loses 3 points and must manifest as a zombie next turn, but player A does not gain points, as he didn't perform the eating; the zombie did. If player B then spends his token, he cannot make the Zombie eat player A's brains, as zombies can only do that once per turn. However, he can use the zombies ability to cast a vote on one proposal. And if player C then spends his token, he can make the zombie cast a vote on any proposal other than the one that player B picked. At the end of each turn, if no player used a token during that turn, there is a 25% chance that a random non-player life form will perform a random action (all choices required for such an action shall be made randomly). ****************************************************************** http://nomicron.org/feeditem.cron?feed_item_id=18622010-02-02T03:54:00.000-00:06ProposalsProposals for Turn 11 - 19 Vote on these proposals by 2010-02-05 22:00 CDTProposals for Turn 11 - 19 Vote on these proposals by 2010-02-05 22:00 CDT ------------------------- 326.
