spoon-business: voting results

[Joel Uckelman <uckelman@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Unfortunately, we failed to meet quorum again--there are thirteen players, 
and only six voted. This time, there were no procedural snafus (the ballot 
went out on time and was correct, voting times are listed on the page, 
etc.), so I'm wondering what happened. There were quite a few proposals on 
which to vote (20, by my count), so maybe some players felt overwhelmed and 
didn't vote. That's counterproductive, though, since all of the proposals 
will just be held over until the next voting period. There won't be less 
next time unless some of them are withdrawn. Really frustrating, it is.

On a related note, I think we need to do something about the way quorum 
works. Either:

1. have some way to declare players inactive so they don't count against 
quorum

or 

2. jettison the idea of quorum altogether 

Otherwise, we may get stuck in a situation where we are unable to change 
the rules because too few people decide to vote.
