spoon-business: Proposal: I've got more imaginary friends that you, nyah nyah


Amend Rule 20/1 to read as follows:

{{
_Eligible Voters_

Each Player is eligible to vote on a Ballot if they became a Player in the manner prescribed in the rules at least one full nday prior to the time at which Voting on that nweek's Ballot begins. Players who became a Player less than one full nday prior to the time at which Voting on that given nweek's Ballot begins may not vote until the following nweek's Voting.

Each Player is eligible to vote on each issue on any given Ballot for the duration of the voting for which the Ballot was issued.
}}

EXPLANATION: This is intended to keep Players from loading the game with ringers (imaginary or otherwise) used to flood the game with proposals or votes at key points (e.g. immediately prior to the issuance of a ballot or immediately prior to the closing of the Voting). In the event of an attempt to load the Player roster prior to the issuance of a Ballot to flood the game with votes or proposals, there will be at least a one day window for a CFJ to be issued.

This should help remedy the imaginary friend strategy.
