I submit a proposal, titled "Transparent kludge": {In Rule 2387, after
the sentence "If a player does not possess the Patent Title Renascent,
e CAN earn a Transparent Ribbon by announcement.", insert the sentence
"Having earned a Transparent Ribbon in the past week is the Losing
Condition of Haste." (Currently, if a person earns a Transparent
Ribbon immediately before winning by Renaissance, e can award emself
the Ribbon after gaining the Patent Title Renascent. This fix is
inelegant but interesting.)}
I submit a proposal, titled "Transparent non-kludge": {If the proposal
titled "Transparent kludge" is not ADOPTED, then, in Rule 2387,
replace the sentence "If a player does not possess the Patent Title
Renascent, e CAN earn a Transparent Ribbon by announcement." with
"Everyone always earns a Transparent Ribbon. If a Ribbon is owned by a
Renascent, it is destroyed."}
