Proposal Type: Bylaw Revision
Opened: 14-Mar-2003 1:00AM EST
Closing: 21-Mar-2003 1:00AM EST
The R&U coordinator has the right to assign a category to any character type that is not well captured by these guidelines. Disputes between the R&U coordinator's interpretation and the submitting Storyteller(s) may be appealed to the Head Coordinator and/or Council. Additionally, by using the methods set forth for genre-related proposals, the R&U Coordinator may re-assign any element of a guideline into a different category.
any system of this nature, flexibility and fluidity are a necessary component. The population types of One World by Night are likely to ebb and flow over the years, and the guidelines must be flexible to reflect the growth and change of the organization and its goals and needs.
Reworded Proposal:
Any ritual that does not exist within a printed White Wolf sourcebook shall require notification to Council before it is available for use by any PC or NPC and shall cataloged by the R&U Coord.
All rituals must include a full text description, including cost, game mechanics, creator and effects. Assignments of in-game availability shall be made by the appropriate Genre Coordinator and noted within the catalog by the R&U Coord.

| Chronicle/Position | Voted for | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| New York City, NY - USA, Kings of New York | Against | This is a good idea, we are for the content, but do not believe this falls under the R&U Coordinators responsibilities. How about, notify the most appropriate coord for whatever crack you've made up. |
| Berkeley, CA - USA, Wasting the Dawn | For | |
| Tampa, FL - USA, Tampa Bay by Night | For | |
| Duluth, MN - USA, Thicker than Blood | For | Makes perfect sense and I hope that circumstances will be approached with Giovanni since their rites are so small in comparison to Thaumaturgy and there is a lot of room for growth. |
| Chicago, IL - USA, Dark Requiem | For | Cataloging rituals should be common sense. This does not bar any game from producing the craziest cheese, but it does allow other games to be forwarned and it may also foster some creative idea-sharing. |
| Fredericksburg, VA - USA, Caine's Chosen: Liberty in Death | Against | Rituals? All Rituals? Would this not be under the Genre of various Coord's who have Magic using Clans? Possibly even directly under the Thuamaturgy Coordinator? |
| Winona, MN - USA, Winona Dark Haven | Against | As has already been pointed out, this is more ''paperwork'' than is needed. |
| Norwalk, CT - USA, Rails of Revolution | Against | See Fredericksburg and shadows on the mall |
| Providence, RI - USA, Hidden Flame | Against | I personally am not going to go to a Coord for every rite that comes up (Garou game) that is for a plot-specific purpose. For example, we just had Big Nasty Spiritual Threat. The PCs went umbral questing and found a rite to counter Big Nasty Spiritual Threat. Now, being that I came up with the threat in the first place, I personally feel justified in making up a rite to counter it. If I was making a rite that actually affected game mechanics in any way, shape, or form, then I would seek approval. |
| Atlanta, GA - USA, Whispers of Atlanta | For | Go snakes! |
| Fargo, ND - USA, Within Shadow's Reach | For | |
| Cincinnati, OH - USA, Shadows of Cincinnati | For | Allowing the ''Home Grown'' rituals to be controlled on a more local level has allowed for the proliferation of abusive rituals and Paths across OWBN. Time has proven that this particular facet of the Sorcery available to the PC's needs to have a central control. |
| Columbus, OH - USA, Columbus in Darkness | For | All of our home grown stuff goes through the ST's first then through the coord and St's and forward...I see no reason to go against this. |
| Springfield, IL - USA, Capitol City Cauldron | Against | I do not believe that this is another power that needs to be given to the R&U coord. This something that should be left up to each chronicle in turn. |
| Washington, DC - USA, Shadows on the Mall | Against | I believe this type of power should remain with ST's. Any ST can bar any power from entering his/her game. This just adds levels of uneeded beauracracy. Because STs can still make that call. |
| Phoenix, AZ - USA, Secundus Surrectum | For | |
| Green Bay, WI - USA, Shattered Dreams | Against | |
| Gimli, MB - Canada, Sang Nordique | For | |
| Iowa City, IA - USA, L'Ange Noir | For | |
| Chronicle/Position Unknown | Against | Agree with what Shadows on the Mall said. |

| Chronicle/Position Unknown | For | I am running on the assumption this is for Garou genre Rites as well. This will be a good thing in any shared community. I'll show you mine if you show me yours. I'm sure we all have the ''Rite'' to know what other players could come into our games with. |

| Chronicle/Position Unknown | For | I wish this has been in place a year ago. Would have saved us a lot of headache and a month & 1/2 search for a ritual that didn't actually exist. |

| Chronicle/Position Unknown | Against | Either STs or specific genre coords should keep this power. R&U coord is not the Misc coord, why are we continuing to expand their responsibilities? |
