| Re: [Spoon-business] Nweek 39 BALLOT |
The Prez of M-Tek presents the M-Tek Position on the nweek 39 ballot: >Proposal 1436/1: Recycling insta-rules (bd) Shelve. Replace "destroyed, except when it is repealed" in the first line with "recycled" and it'll work for now. Or something more comprehensive. >Proposal 1437/0: Fixing a flaw in the fatal flaw fixer (Orc In a Spacesuit) Shelve. This doesn't fix anything. I think what you're trying for is, "The author of a current proposal may declare that proposal to be 'fatally flawed'." >Proposal 1439/0: Who were you, again? (bd) No. No change since last nweek. >Proposal 1441/0: Hey, another fix! (Wonko) No. No change since last nweek. >Proposal 1442/0: The rule which is also an object (bd) No. No change from last nweek. >Proposal 1443/0: The Return of Pooker (Orc In a Spacesuit) No. No change from last nweek. >Proposal 1444/1: The Grid: Not Just For Football Anymore (Baron von Skippy) Yes. WBE needs the RUs. >Proposal 1445/0: Voting Revamp (The Voice) No. No change from last nweek. >Proposal 1446/0: Unlikely Icecapades (Orc In a Spacesuit) Abstain. I still think the use of "possessed" is obscure, but that doesn't bother me enough to vote against it. >Proposal 1448/0: Leveling The Playing Fields (The Administrator) No. >Proposal 1449/1: Forfeiture: New and Improved! (Orc In a Spacesuit) Yes, though the dead are gonna stack up after a while. But I suppose no one wants another Impersonation Scam. >Proposal 1450/0: Stop orc slurring, for a price (bd) No. Situation resolved. Though perhaps the slurring rule could use a tweak. >Proposal 1451/0: Tweaking Justice (Orc In a Spacesuit) No. No change from last nweek. Even if the last change, which I thought was unnecessary last nweek, is in fact necessary, it needs work. I could see someone arguing that if the appellates have issued no judgement, then the most recently issued judgment is no judgement, a majority of the appellates agree with it, and therefore the Upper House issues no judgement. >Proposal 1452/1: You gotta do things yourself (Orc In a Spacesuit) No. I want to have a society where someone can join if e agrees e'll do certain things. I want it possible for someone to commit to something, especially in cases, such as M-Tek, where I'm committed to do something for em. I want to count on em before the fact, not get pissed at em and fire em after the fact. I've done everything I can to make societies not "victimize" their members. Kindly stop trying to castrate them. And I think it was cheap to include that in a shelved prop when it failed outright on its own. >Proposal 1453/0: Ambassadors Mark II (Baron von Skippy) Shelve. Throw in vote-of-no-confidence provisions, and/or something that ties the points a minister of foreign affairs gets to eir obligation to submit a report. >Proposal 1454/0: Flipping the circuit breaker (bd) Sure. >Proposal 1455/0: Radar jammers (bd) Shelve. I think the "Then" in the first change should be a "When". It kinda makes a difference. >Proposal 1456/0: Hey, a little rain won't kill ya... (Glotmorf) Yes. >Proposal 1457/0: Carryable Objects and Mass (Orc In a Spacesuit) Shelve. Do we really need this? >Proposal 1458/0: Cleanup I: Mischeviousness, Siren Bait, High Priestess >(Wonko) Part 1: Yes. Part 2: No. Siren bait has strategic usefulness, especially if there are more rocks. Part 3: Yes. >Proposal 1459/0: Cleanup II: The Casino, Bondage, Engravings (Wonko) Part 1: Yes. Part 2: No. As few proposals as I've been making these ndays, I might actually use this. Part 3: Abstain. >Proposal 1460/0: Cleanup III: Football (Wonko) Yes. At the very least it should be moved to another grid. I don't think football is compatible with armies and cans of whoopass. >Proposal 1461/0: Cleanup IV: Death (Wonko) Yes. >Proposal 1462/0: Cleanup V: Shears and Swabs (Wonko) Hmm. No. >Proposal 1463/0: I Get It from my Dad (M-Tek) Yes. >Proposal 1464/0: We Got Class Now! (Glotmorf) Yes. >Proposal 1465/0: The Big Ol' Book of Quotes (Baron von Skippy) Yes.
