Classic.  Got me laughing.

I thought along these lines too, but as people can only have one active 
insta-prop at a time (you can't insta-propose if you have one pending), this 
limits you.  Sure, someone could keep a bad insta-prop alive, but what's the 
point?  People can keep making the same proposal, but don't.

Certainly nothing supported by the rules.  And that includes the deletion or 
change, then reinstatement of a rule.

Eventually.  That's something I'm working towards.  But not any great 
distance.

I'll put that in when I make toads a race, unless someone beats me to it.
