  "textContent": "Add a new rule, named “The Presidency”, with the following text:The President is publicly tracked, and is either an Associate, or empty.\nIf the Presidency is empty, each Associate has a publicly tracked Ballot, which may be either blank (the default) or any Associate with a share, and an Associate may change their own Ballot anytime. After the Presidency has been vacant for 24 hours, if Associates owning Quorum of all Shares have set their Ballot to the same Associate (the Candidate), and this has been true for all of the past 24 hours, anyone may appoint the Candidate as President.\n\nAdd a new subrule to the above added rule, named “Shares”, with the following text:Each Associate has a publicly tracked number of Shares, which defaults to the mean of all Player’s Shares, rounded down. The Share Price is publicly tracked and defaults to 5. Any Associate may Buy a Share as a Virtual Action by paying the Share Price in Credits, increasing the Share Price by 1, and reducing the Debt by 1, to a minimum of 0. The Guild may (and should), once a Day, resolve all Buy a Share virtual actions, and then, if none were resolved, reduce the Share Price by 1, to a minimum of 3. The Guild may not otherwise resolve Buy a Share actions.\n\nAdd a new rule, named “Systems and Directors”, with the following text:The Guild operates in publicly tracked Systems, each identified by a unique flavour text name. Every System has a publicly tracked Director, which is a Associate, or vacant (it’s default). If a System’s Director is vacant, the President may choose another Associate who controls a Vessel in that System to be that System’s Director. If there are less than Quorum Systems, the Guild may create a new System, choosing a name from the [[List of Stars]].\n\nAdd a new rule, named “Vessels”, with the following text:Each System has a publicly tracked list of Vessels in that System. Each Vessel has a publicly tracked Owner, which is the Associate or Guild who created that Vessel.\n\nCreate Quorum Systems, naming them as follows, in order: Acrux, Rigel, Thuban, Mira, Atlas, Hamal. If Quorum is more than 6, randomly select more unique System names from the List of Stars page. For each System, select one Associate that is Director of the least Systems (picking randomly on ties) to be the Director of that System. \nDo this twice for each Associate in alphabetical order: Select a System that has 2 or less Vessels among all Systems (picking randomly on ties, and if there are none, give that Associate 1 Share), and on that Associate’s behalf, create a Vessel in that System. Give each Associate 1 Share.",
