I agree, eclairs are always thing which are broken. I
was disappointed that style was not completely sweared

As far as I can see, it would... Quote props need to
be made a form of strict poll (r 15b)

of more interest though is that all of the quote props
on this ballot are listed as unauthored props, when
r396 makes no mention of Unauthored props and rule 19
clearly states that Unauthored props have no passage
bonus or failure penalty, which Quote props do have

Did I actually mention that I was drinking Scotch that

night, or was that just a guess on Zarpints part?
