Call for Judgment: Dust to Dust

Reached quorum, 7-0. Josh

Adminned at 15 Jan 2022 20:45:57 UTC

The proposal Charity Box was edited at 13 Jan 2022 at 8:17pm, less than one minute after its first vote from Josh. However, it continued to be discussed and voted on for an additional 44 comments, and was enacted with none of the 8 admins noticing that it was edited. Three subsequent proposals were passed and significant game actions were taken that were ostensibly contingent on its passing.

Since Charity Box would have passed even without Josh’s vote, uphold the enactment of Charity Box as if it were posted at 8:18pm, disregarding its first 4 comments. Transfer 5 coins from Zack to Josh since Josh did not have an EVC of FOR on the proposal.

If the DOV “Ashes to Ashes” was failed, add the following to the ruleset as a subrule of “The Campfire at the End of Hell” called “Double Jeopardy”:

The tripper named Zack may make a DOV at any time so long as they have made no more than one DOV within the last 5 days. If it is after 1:37pm on 20 January 2022, any player may remove this paragraph from the ruleset.

I was thinking to myself “this could be Heaven or this could be Hell”…

for Excited to see Zack turn on Malign Emperors in his AA and make 2389 simultaneous DoVs.

for Turns out you CAN submit another DoV if your first one hasn’t failed yet? Maybe we should have some rich person throw their coins at you and then you DoV regardless of this CfJ.

Sadly, Ty, that doesn’t work - no-one can take dynastic actions under hiatus, so no cash transfer can take place until all pending DoVs are resolved.

I’m for on this, though.

So this has quorum but

This might not work. Charity Box would *not* have been passed without Josh’s vote.

So if you ignore the first 4 votes, Charity Box would’ve been illegally enacted prematurely as it would’ve only been 6-1

This does say to uphold the enactment though, so I think it might be okay. But as I’m the one pushing for “ignore nitpicky stuff like this and just let Zack win” I feel like I shouldn’t be the one to ignore a nitpicky thing and just let Josh win.
