BvS's winning is uncertain until we get the results of the CFI regarding my
"Everyone's a member" societies. I contend that they were legal, and
therefore I've already won and a rule is in effect which says, "players may
not win".

Why doesn't the Haiku Bonus Apply?

Damn, Damn, DAMN!

Why the hell to we have that bloody immunity Idol clause?!?

*rages furiously*

*pauses*

Actually, now that I look at the Immunity Idol rule, it looks like the
proposal itself has no effect. So all those rules were never created. That's
interesting... it means I have to repropose the bloody thing, but it also
means I got 16 points for nothing :)

How does this get shelved? There were more Negative than Affirmative and
Shelve together?

No, they don't. "Players may vote. Other game entities may vote only if
explicitly permitted to do so by a rule which takes precedence over this
rule." - Rule 15

I believe that was added specifically because of Gremlin Voting. They most
definitely cannot vote. Do I really have to CFI this?

I could CFI that if you wanted... Also note that, if my interpretation that
initial members really are initial is ruled false, then this society never
existed in the first place anyway, as it got wiped for having no members as
soon as it was created...

Right, now I'm really pissed. Does anybody want to make some easy points by
repealing that stupid clause in the immunity idol?

Of course, this is 24 more free points for me... and a solution to my
problem coming up with good proposals...

Well, thanks for the bonus points, Voice [[Yes Voice, I do remember who
wrote the Immunity Idol]], but I'd rather have the Gremlins.
