Imperial Decree 333

[Kaiser Loki III]

There shall henceforth be no limitation on the number of awards and honorsthat a Kaiser may confer within a particular length of time.

All Law to the contrary is hereby made void from this date forward.

Our Imperial Successors are admonished to use this Power with discression.

Done this fishday, being the 8th of H'Graasreign in the Year 3403 ASC.

[Malliki]

Why oh why is it so difficult to edit the DecreeBook?

F&B is willing, for a fee of course, to make sure that all decrees passed by Your Niftiness is amended to the DecreeBook. Are you interested in this?

[Erik Mortis]

Why, oh Why is it so hard to see that that rule makes sense and should be followed? If we have no limit, to many people get the award and it will become meaningless.

[Kaiser Loki III]

Why, oh why do people advise changing a rule and then complain when its done?

Ok, if I get more complaints, I'll do an Ayereon and withdraw it.

[Erik Mortis]

I was complaining that you weren't following the rule, not that it should be changed.

[Jess]

Was there a limit?

[Kaiser Loki III]

There was, but I wanted to do some Neat Stuff, so I changed the rule.

[Erik Mortis]

And now Kaiser's can (officially) make so many people part of orders that they can be made meaningless.

The limit was there for a good reason, by Scott.

[Kaiser Loki III]

Of course it was. But it seemed to stymie the very idea.

Have I given honor to any who deserved it not? When were the last honors given before the time of Loki?

errrrrrrr!

[Rai Avon-El]

When, oh when? Oh yes, during the reign of good old Ayreon

[Kaiser Loki III]

(looks sorrowful)

[Erik Mortis]

If other Kaiser's didn't give awards, that's there fault.

Basically, a Kaiser rules for three months, and can assign 3 knighthood to each order per reign. I'm not saying that they didn't all deserve it, I'm saying that you need to hand out awards slowly, or they kinda lose meaning.

[Scott of Hyperborea]

I agree with Erik. Some countries just give awards to everyone, and that's meaningless. If you get an award from Shireroth, you know you must have done something right, because we can only give out a certain number.

[Kaiser Loki III]

OK.
