But it could be interesting. I'm not sure it would do anything as worded, since it's not really a gamestate change, and only the changes in a prop get implemented. This is more of a declaration. If it said "Make this proposal be Baron von Skippy", then it would have interesting effects. I don't think BvS would like the effects, though. There are a few possible interpretations that come to mind. First, it could supplant em, making em cease to be a player and be a proposal instead. More likely it will make BvS be simultaneously a prop and a player, but that would also have negative side effects, because BvS would immediately become a Historical Proposal, and "Historical Proposals are for all intents and purposes not part of the Gamestate; they are kept merely for reference." If I'm reading that correctly, any player who is also a proposal would effectively die as soon as they Resolved. Oh, and btw, the Loophole prop did work, it just never showed up on the Ballot. So we now have a winner, albeit largely through my own stupidity. -- Wonko _______________________________________________ spoon-discuss mailing list spoon-discuss@xxxxxxxxx http://lists.ellipsis.cx/mailman/listinfo/spoon-discuss
