Nomic: The Constitution Game - Game Over

[Ircher]

Active Proposals

Up to date as of post 99.

1.

Proposal 314

(66) by Ircher: A president shall be elected by a democratic election. Players may not vote for themselves. The first election shall run from the time this proposal passes until 48 hours after such time. The president is whoever wins by plurality; if there is a tie, a run-off election shall be conducted among the tied candidates. Presidents serve for a term of 76 hours starting from the time when they are officially declared president. While a player is the president, they may unilaterally veto any proposal, instantly killing it. A president may not be elected twice in a row. Subsequent elections shall also be 48 hours and shall run when a presidential term has ended.

Requires unaminous consent.

VOTE: NAY 314 VOTE: YEA 315
Vetos by a player are a bad time. So no.
For the record, this means that 314 fails and 315 passes.
That should be it I think.

[StrangerCoug]

VOTE: Yea 321

[Ircher]

So I'm pretty sure that clears all the outstanding proposals, so y'all can go ahead and start proposing new ones. I'll figure out the specifics a little later.

[logan5123]

coolio

322: Transmute 301 to immutable.

I don't want to be stuck in that period again pls thanks

[Ircher]

Okay so 315, 318, 319, 320, and 321 pass. 314 fails.

VOTE: Yea 322

[Allomancer]

VOTE: Yea 322

[logan5123]

Heck, while I've got a chance, I'll make this rule as well.

323: Players may not join under alternate accounts.

easy enough

[StrangerCoug]

VOTE: Yea 301
Makes perfect sense.

VOTE: Yea 323
Goes reasonably hand-in-hand with allowing multiple votes being voted down. You should be playing under only one account at a time.

[StrangerCoug]

Proposal 324: A proposal may not make more than one fundamental change at a time. What constitutes a "fundamental change" is at the discretion of the moderator, but as an example of the intended spirit of the rule, a proposal may not simultaneously transmute and amend a rule. Nothing in this rule shall be construed to prohibit proposals that simultaneously add a new feature to the game and set rules on using the new feature.

[StrangerCoug]

Oh, I thought 319 failed xD I still support 323, and the anti-cheating argument still stands.

[Allomancer]

VOTE: Yea 323
VOTE: Nay 324

[logan5123]

VOTE: NAY 324
I want my rules that are essentually 25 smaller rules smashed together and made into a couch
also sometimes you need to do that

[logan5123]

Heck, while I'm on a rule making spree

325: Players may persist motions into mutable rules with an absolute majority vote. Doing so makes the motion permanent.

Notice there's no way to turn a rule into a motion; at that point you need an absolute majority so just repeal it.

[logan5123]

On an unrelated note, I made the last rule at 1 o'clock in the morning, passed out, and woke up at 6 and got on to find no replies.
I got 5 hours of sleep
Fuck me

[StrangerCoug]

VOTE: Nay 325
Defeats the purpose of a motion.

[Allomancer]

VOTE: Nay 325

[logan5123]

hmm not what I was expecting but ok cool

[Ircher]

VOTE: Yea 323
VOTE: Abstain 324
VOTE: Nay 325

That should kill 325. 323 should also have passed. Not sure about 324.

[Allomancer]

Proposal 326: A proposal that has been pending for 72 hours, and has not received enough yea votes to pass, automatically fails.

[logan5123]

VOTE: NAY 326
Please no. I don't want to have to deal with 3 day time limits.
Also have you seen real legislatures, that shit takes foreeeeeever.

[Jormengand]

VOTE: Yea 323 Nay 324 Nay 325 Nay 326

[Ircher]

VOTE: Nay 326

StrangerCoug's vote for 301 in 108 was not counted as 301 is not an active proposal.

323 passes. 324, 325, and 326 are rejected.

[Ircher]

I would like to separate some parts of the motion rule so we can amend/repeal/transmute parts of it instead of the entire thing, and in order to do that, we need to pass some additional rules. All of these proposals are already part of the current ruleset; like I said, I'm just separating out parts from it.

Proposal 327: Motions may supersede any and all mutable rules, but they may not override immutable rules.

Proposal 328: There may be a max of three proposed motions at a time.

[Allomancer]

VOTE: Nay 327
VOTE: Nay 328

We can always amend the original rule and only change the necessary portion. I don't see a point in added this bloat to our ruleset.
