Well, people are suggesting it's broken.  If it actually passed as it
is now it would have a pretty unpleasant effect on the game...

Then adding "evil" seems completely apropos to me.

Me too.  I'm working on it.  The key is in my stupid screw up that Bob
acts as if he could vote as many times as he likes.  He can't, so he's
not that powerful.  Bob^2  would be less powerful but last longer, I
think.

BTW I really don't have any emotional capital on this one.  I'd like
to see Posts pass because I'd really like to see ruletag pass next
week or whenever; but this was just a "wow! wouldn't that throw the
cat among the pigeons!" thing.  Go ahead and vote against...
