Enact a new rule, “Caretaker Government”:-
If a Voter is selected by more Ballots than any other Voter, then they are the Favoured Candidate. During this dynasty, a vote of DEFERENTIAL is a vote of no opinion, or of faith in the decision of the Favoured Candidate.
A vote of DEFERENTIAL will count as the same as the Favoured Candidate’s vote. If the Favoured Candidate casts a vote of DEFERENTIAL on a proposal, it serves the purpose of cancelling any previous vote on that proposal that was cast by the Favoured Candidate. If there is no Favoured Candidate, a vote of DEFERENTIAL counts as an explicit vote of abstention.
This rule takes precedence over Rule 1.4 (Voting).
Ais523 has suggested he won’t be around much this week, which doesn’t break anything except the DEFERENTIAL voting. Given that the Ballot Leader will be in charge soon, maybe they could resolve the DEF votes for this dynasty as well.
