I would lean more toward teucer's B/Agora hybrid, if we're gonna change
things around wholesale (basically 6E).

FWIW, based on http://b.nomic.net/index.php/State_of_Unrest (last
updated a little over a day ago), here's a summary of the Points of
Order and their vote totals:

  2/1 Kisse: "ratify 5E gamestate"
  2/2 comex: "make us an Agoran protectorate"
  4/2 0x44: "set *initial* rules to Agora's rules"
  4/1 0x44: "re-enact rule 5E0"
  2/4 Murphy: "ratify 5E rules"
  6/0 Murphy: "ratify 5E players"
  5/1 Murphy: "ratify 5E ministers"
  5/1 Murphy: "ratify 5E consultations"
  4/2 Murphy: "ratify 5E clock"
  2/1 teucer: "set rules to a December 2001 ruleset"
  4/1 Murphy: "ratify 5E rules with comment fix"
  3/4 Kisse: "add Kisse to players with an imaginary win"
  3/1 teucer: "enact B/Agora hybrid"
  2/1 Kisse: "I vote = I submit a vote"
  2/1 0x44: "enact RFC 2119 as a rule"
  3/2 ehird: "ratify comment fix"

Oh, but y'all are gonna love and/or hate this!  Rule 5E0, relevant
excerpts:

  A Point of Order may declare that it is Dependent on or Contradictory
  to a previously submitted, but not yet discarded or selected Point of
  Order.

/* Thus, if it doesn't so declare, then it isn't. */

  If a selected Point of Order is Contradictory to another selected
  Point of Order, the Point of Order with the greater number of Yea
  votes to Nay votes is selected, otherwise they are both discarded.

/* So twelve out of the thirteen selected Points are discarded in pairs
per "otherwise"!  But which one survives?  Note that teucer's B/Agora
hybrid would have fixed this. */

I become Paranoid.
