Personally, I think the game is more interesting with lots of vote-changing
items. I was, however, toying with the idea of different levels of
proposals; for example, a level 1 proposal could do nothing more than move
Grid Objects around, a level 2 proposal could effect any change to the
gamestate that didn't affect rules, proposals, judgment, or society
charters, level 3 could be anything without rule-changes, 4 includes
repealing rules, 5 includes modifying rules, 6 allows anything. Or something
like that.
Then, you could do interesting things with bandwidth, like restricting
everyone to only one lvl 6 prop per nweek, or something, and you could also
adjust the vote-changers to only affect, say, lvl 4 or under props...

"An unrelated note"... ha. ha. *grimaces* That's really bad.

"Sounds interesting"? Are you doing this on purpose?

Have you ever seen those Magic Cards like War Dance, where every turn you
put a counter on them, and you can sacrifice them to do spiffy things with
the number of counters? This reminds me of them.

Also, have you ever read any of the Silmarillion?
