PART 2
The IDP can only be used when multiple people have near-equal claim to something. One person can not call dibs on something another person clearly owns, and if he does, dibs has no effect. If the object in question was given from one person to another, a third person may not call dibs on said object. Even if it was not made explicitly clear that the object in question was meant for a specific person,
the person who provided the object may still clarify and dibs will be
nullified.
If one person has
obviously greater claim to the object in question, dibs will have no effect. However, dibs shall be upheld if
the claim is (1) not major and can't be proven or (2) very minor, even if proof is provided. If an agreement is reached that both people have equal claim to the object, the two people will start at step 2.
If an agreement can not be reached, the said object will be be split equally,
destroyed, left behind, sold and the money split evenly, or given to a third person, depending on what the valued object is.
SHOTGUN AMENDMENT
The Shotgun Amendment is a specific form of dibs, namely, the shotgun seat of a vehicle. Slightly different rules apply to shotgun.
The owner of the vehicle gets final say in who rides shotgun.
Also, shotgun call only be called when some piece of the vehicle can be seen from where shotgun is called. Exhaust, icicles
hanging off of the vehicle, and reflections do not count as a “piece of the vehicle.”
