Proposal: Expedited Vetoes

Only three Scribes are not voting AGAINST, which is less than the quorum of five; fails 1-5. -RaichuKFM

Adminned at 06 Aug 2016 15:27:54 UTC

Add the following text to the end of the rule “Resolution of Proposals”:

A pending Vetoed proposal may be failed by any admin at any time.

I’m planning on using vetoes as a mechanic an upcoming dynasty, and setting the veto speed to fast will be necessary for it to function smoothly.

If you want to use vetos as a mechanic in your dynasty, I’d be in favor of a dynastic rule with this content.

But in general, I think having a clear queue is good. This proposal could create a scenario where someone wants an admin to veto one of their proposals so they can free up a proposal slot.

I’m mildly confused, here.

If it’s Dynasty specific, I think it would work better as a Dynastic rule, per Clucky;

And also, work better proposed in said Dynasty?

against Fast fails never work out well.

“But in general, I think having a clear queue is good” - This is an argument in *favor* of fast vetoes.

@Brendan: I can’t think of a single case where it turned out poorly.

I don’t really get why everyone hates the speedy veto so much,

But I’m still not sure why a Dynasty specific clause should be proposed right now?

Barring some shenanigans up your sleeve, the next Dynasty will be either mine, or not come around yet by the time this Proposal resolves?

when i meant “clear queue” I meant “a queue resolved in a clear order” not “a queue that is clear of proposals”
