Can the clock do that reliably? I know at one point the clock was having the same problem you want to use it to solve - when the Game Clock stopped, the clock shown on the website kept ticking until Dave manually reset it. Has that been fixed?The major result of the rule I am trying to write is to remove the grunt work of having to tally the votes from the administrator and make it a duty (remember those, I wrote the rule before my net connection failed because of my move?). Because all of the votes are in the public domain its the kind ofthing that can be given to one of us to do. The idea here is (ideally) that the auto-mailer will accept PV's at anytime, and will spit the PV's out to the main list (publicly viewable, as all votes are) at the close of voting. Then it will be a duty for someone to tally all the votes and post the colated results. Dave will only have toimplement them, not take ages to count them.Of course, it could also become useful if you want to disguise what yourvote on an issue is, or something like that. Tactical voting :)
It might be best to have somebody send a message when the nweek ends; the clock can't be trusted - it says it's nday 6 right now, when the clock stopped at the end of nday 3.
