[Spoon-business] modest proposal


It's fortuitous that I remembered I'm sexless, or this paragraph would
leave us all unpleasantly moist.  As *crackle* I remarked previously,
Platonism is too potent a philosophy, and so I propose to reduce
Platonists' generous allowance of extra votes and tighten their
restriction, as follows:
*crackle*

_Curb_Platonism_
{{
Change the Platonism mandate to:
{{
Platonists believe in perfecting things. 

A Platonist may vote three times FOR any one proposal which was shelved
on a previous ballot, provided that proposal has since been amended. A
platonist may not vote AGAINST any proposals on a ballot,but may vote
SHELVE, as e would rather things had a chance to become closer to the
ideal.
}}
[[
The mandate is currently:
{{
Platonists believe in perfecting things. 

A Platonist may vote four times FOR any proposal which was shelved on a
previous ballot, provided that proposal has since been amended. A
platonist may not vote AGAINST more proposals on a ballot than e votes
to SHELVE, as e would rather things had a chance to become closer to
the ideal.
}}
]]
}}

Although it *crackle* isn't very stylish to grab another pastry I
advertised earlier, I claim the chocolate eclair Curt, referenced in
Rule 625.  (I'm not sure whether reference in a comment counts, but the
simplest way to find out is to try it).  (I'll leave Rod - I won't be
able to smear anything with that with a straight face.)

*buzz*Sagitta

P.S. 
Rule 1700 is missing a "]]" at the end.
r152 is repealed, but still *buzz* present in the Roster, albeit blank.
