Can you help me to understand what this means? Does it imply that a player cannot make more than two currency transfers and also a stock transfer? I am not actually sure I understand how a currency is transferred either, but that is probably because I haven't read the particular rule. Can you point me to the right bit or clarify?
Players are not allowed to make more then 2 currency transfers under the current rules. This just allows us to transfer stocks without using up one of our allowed currency transfers.f) Sale of Stock: players may make conditional transfers of currency related to transfers of stock, and so sell stock to each other
How? And upon what is it conditional?
[color=#008000]Edited the rule to make this more clear.
[/color]g) For Sale: Stocks may become “For Sale” at the end of voting phases through legacy forfeits or through sale by players or through other means defined by this or future rules, or by things. At the end of a voting phase players follow the auction procedure described in clause “a” to determine who owns the stock. Between a sale or possessing player inactivity the stock is considered unowned, that is to say no player possesses it. This overrides rule 302. This auction is not a separate phase, and coincides with the proposal phase of the next turn.
Where does this auction happen? Is it in the proposal thread for the turn just taken?
Yes, edited the rule to make this explicit.
