Proposal: Insert Veto Icon Here

If the Proposal titled “Veto Express, Now With Absolutely No Scam Whatsoever” failed, this Proposal does nothing.
Add the following to Rule 1.5 Enactment:
When the Artisan votes to VETO a Proposal, any Admin may fail that Proposal from that moment on, even if it is not the oldest Pending Proposal.
Remove the bullet point reading:
The Artisan has voted to VETO it
from Rule 1.5 Enactment.
If at least half of all EVCs on this proposal also contain the text “OVERTURN”, replace the text:
The Artisan may vote to VETO any Proposal.
in Rule 1.8 Dynasties with:
The Artisan may vote to VETO any Proposal, unless at least a Quorum of Apprentices have voted FOR it.
I fixed the complaints from the last proposal.

The veto power exists so that an emperor has control over their dynasty. Letting it be over turned by a simple majority weakens the emperor’s power. If the emperor is abusing the veto power, the CfJ exists as a means for fixing that, but why prematurely limit the emperor’s fun?
Wakukee:
I actually concur with Clucky.

Excalabur:
Oh: major flaw. This will add the same sentence to the ruleset twice, or no times, depending on how your other proposal turned out.
Kevan:
It’s sometimes important for the Emperor to be able to veto an otherwise popular proposal - we occasionally don’t notice that something will break the ruleset until after it’s had a lot of votes, and it can take a while to put the brakes on. CfJs are always an easy way to overturn the edicts of a veto-crazed Emperor.

@Wak: It’s an optional thing. You have to include OVERTURN with your EVC for it to take effect.
Kevan:
Or, you know, not include OVERTURN, but have four other players include it. If the half-EVC clause is damaging enough that a player doesn’t want it, they won’t want an unknown chance of it either.

This proposal now does nothing, since the other prop failed.
Klisz:
...oh crap, I meant “succeeded”.
