RULES TEAM PROCEDURES

Submission: One anyone submits a rules question that is not immediately obvious, it goes into our rules queue, via a link to the post, or copied text, and placed in spoiler tags for organization.

Discussion: The rules team will discuss the question as needed, to see if further research is required, the question is due to a misunderstanding of the rules, or a minor wording update or clarification is needed. There must be at least 3 Rules team members to vote yea to move to the next phase.

Research and Clarification: If it is determined that further research is required, the rules team will then look at past designs, the official rulebooks, and any other official sources to determine a ruling. Also asking the Lead Designer the intent of the power, if the question involves just a single power. We discuss the findings and how to properly word any rulings or wording updates to make it clear.

Suggested Ruling Vote: The Rules team will then vote among themselves to come to a consensus on the ruling, update, and affected designs (If it’s a larger ruling with potential other updates required), using the below template.

Hero Vote: One member of the Rules team will then put it to the heroes as a vote officially. If Nay, then the rules team will take the reasons for the Nay into consideration and return to the Clarification phase for a rewording of the ruling.

FAQ Voting: The Heroes decided that all FAQs need to be approved by the Rules Team before they are added to a Book. Any C3G Member can make a proposal in the appropriate Book and tag the Rules Team for FAQ approval.
