Subject: Acka:  Proposal 2197

Proposal 2197
Ad Hoc=Unorganized
Alfvaen

This is a modest proposal.

Amend Rule 1080, "Ad Hoc Committees", by replacing the current section 5.

{{[
5. Once a Committee has been formed it has 7 days to post its decision
on the matter in question.  It is a Crime for a player to falsely
represent the decision of a Committee. If a Committee fails to reach a
decision in 7 days, or reaches 0 members before it reaches a decision,
all of its members are held in Contempt, it is dissolved, and another
one is called on the specific matter in question.
]}}

with the following text(delimited by TOFFLER)

TOFFLER

5. Once a Committee has been formed, it has 7 days to come to a
decision on the matter in question, and three days to post it.  It is a
Crime for a player to falsely represent the decision of a Committee. If
a Committee fails to post its decision in 10 days, all of its members
are held in Contempt.  If this occurs, or the Committee reaches 0
members before it reaches a decision, it is dissolved, and another one
is called on the specific matter in question.

TOFFLER

{{[ So, there are now three days to post the Committee's decision.  Also, I
decided that there's no point in punishing the Committee's members with
Contempt if it reaches zero members, because that's sort of a null
punishment, or should at the very least be phrased differently... ]}}

Subject: Acka:  Proposal 2198

Proposal 2198
Thargoid Weapon Dealer Crackdown
Alfvaen

This is a Modest proposal.

{{[ Rule 2104 somehow fails to appear on the web pages, but the Proposal
archive says it passed, Malenkai and I have taken advantage of it(or
attempted to), and I don't recall seeing it renumbered... ]}}

Amend Rule 2104, "More Blatant Elitism", by removing the text "the
replacement of any Military lasers in the player's possession by Pulse
lasers, and"

{{[ What this will leave is "leading to the loss of 1 point". ]}}

Subject: Acka:  Proposal 2199

Proposal 2199
Throw The Walls Into The Fireplace
Alfvaen

This is a Modest proposal

Renumber Rule 1141, "Committee for the Protestion, Preservation, and
Integrity of the Arts", to 1082.

Repeal Rule 1399, "Thank You Yakko"
{{[ I believe that it has served its purpose in having passed in the first
place. ]}}

Repeal Rule 1046, "Another Truly Deplorable Pun"

ruleset...unless we want to add "Ferdinand Feghoot" to the Literature
list...]}}

Renumber Rule 2087, "Ad Hoc Committee on the matter of Fine Art", to 1083.
{{[ Maybe it should go in the 600's, but then the "Skylines" one should go
in the 800's, so we'll just put all the Ad Hocs in one place ]}}

Renumber Rule 2103, "Doomsday! Part II" to 1322.  {{[ Yeah, maybe this
should go away too, but we'll leave it on the books for a few months. ]}}

Renumber Rule 2104, "More Blatant Elitism", to 1324.
Renumber Rule 2105, "Universal Nomic strikes back!", to 1325.
