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.”
