I’ll probably sit down with the core rules in the future and see if it’s possible to clean them up to prevent any of the issues we have that continuosly pop-up.

  This was brought up before. It seems to encourage people to post more DoV’s.

Hey, I like this idea! Where’d you get it from, Rodlen?  : D

Waz, that was why the delay was placed.  The S.K. removes it, ending a haitus, but you have to wait 5 days to try again.

Waz?

Warm

I don’t understand. How can this be Warm?

Making DoVs less of a slow, clunking nuisance will encourage people to post more of them. I guarantee we’d see a lot of lazily speculative “what the hell, this probably won’t work, but I’ll self-kill it in a couple of hours” DoVs - limiting them to one every five days won’t make any difference, outside of actual endgame.

And self-killing gives a lot of power in the ability to freeze and unfreeze the game at will. If victory is near and I don’t want anyone messing up my plans overnight, I can get an accomplice to issue a spurious DoV, and agree to self-kill it when I’m awake again.

CoV Per Kevan. However, I think we should have a mechanism in place to dispatch baseless DoVs (and CfJs too) that have no chance of passing anyways. BTW, once again: Warm.

warm? odd indeed

Warm?

Please veto warmly.

Hmm,what about a s/k that only the Watcher or equivalent can implement? Which is to say, it can be failed at any time by the Watcher following a self-kill, thus preventing Kevan’s problem.

Sorry, that^^^ was me, my brother forgot to log out.

COV per Kevan. Whoever thought such a simple rule would promote abuse?  Who abuses these kinds of rules anyway?

Maybe this is Warm because the theme involves declaring victory and then killing yourself?

@Cube: What?

Er, what to what?  Mostly that was a joke.

Ok, sorry.  : p Didn’t make any sense for a minute there.

Warm (just to make it really official)
