Proposal: Deliberation Timing

Timed out and passed, 8-0. Skju gains 4 Credibility, Koen, Patrick and scshunt all lose 2 for not voting. Josh

In Rule 2.12 (“Deliberations”), change the text “(unless the Honourable Member already has a Deliberation pending, or has already submitted 3 Votable Matters that day)” to “(unless the Honourable Member already has a Deliberation pending or has already submitted 3 Votable Matters that day, or the target Proposal or Deliberation has already been targeted by a Deliberation pending in the last 12 hours)”

In the same rule, add to the beginning of the first list:

  • It has been open for voting for at least 6 hours, has a number of FOR Votes that exceed or equal Quorum, and has no AGAINST votes.

Append to the end of the same rule:

If a Deliberation includes the word “CRUCIAL” (all caps), then its target Proposal or Deliberation cannot be failed until it has been pending for at least 48+F-A hours, where F is the number of FOR votes on the Deliberation and A is the number of AGAINST votes on the Deliberation, if F-A > 0.

Proposaled.

I anticipate Proposals having problems getting enough votes soon enough after relevant Deliberations pass, so the timing is a little looser. There’s also some filibuster potential, but with that a little restriction.
