Yeah, but the thousands of voices don't cry out until *after* I make the
proposal :)

The point is, you took a lot of actions, some of which were confusing (given
that you and bd made a lot of illegal actions, then rescinded and
reperformed them repeatedly); I'm no longer sure how many Gnomes, points, or
debt points either of you have. During times of crisis, especially times of
multiple-player induced crises, that can get icky.

So yeah, welcome to the shirt!

The Refresh Prop is the "reset everything" prop I've posted twice already.
But okay, I'll post it again.
