Proposal: Way to gain and lose honor

Self-Killed—Rodlen

Create a new dynastic rule, titled Honor From Proposals, with the following text:

If a Proposal passes with only for votes, the proposer gains 1 honor.  If a proposal fails with only against votes (not counting the proposer’s vote), the proposer loses 1 honor.

against Would encourage fiddly, queue-slowing voting (having pity on a failing proposal, or taking a notch out of an undisputedly popular one), without amounting to anything.

This would also reward trivial, obvious fixes just as strongly as works of uncontested genius.

against We could implement a system where voters can mark a proposal as trivial, but then we still have the problem where one person votes against just to keep the proposer from gaining honor.

against I vote against this proposal, just to keep the proposer from gaining honor.
