Proposal: Abnormally stimulating proposals

Times out and fails 4-16. -coppro

Create a new dynastic rule, “Overstimulation”:

As a weekly action, a Player may Overstimulate a Pending Proposal that has not yet been Overstimulated, by spending 1 SP and making a comment “This Proposal has been Overstimulated” on it.

When an Overstimulated Proposal is enacted or fails, any changes to SP that would be made as a consequence of the enactment or failure (for instance, as a result of a rule awarding SP on the enactment of a proposal, or any instantaneous SP changes performed by the proposal itself) are doubled.

This is merely going to break even with the most common SP source (earning SP from your own proposal), but seems potentially likely to create large increases in total SP if used correctly. As a result, I’ve made it a weekly action. I can’t see any reason to Overstimulate someone else’s proposal at the moment, but there probably is one, or will be one in future.
