In the rule Resolution of Proposals, change “It has been Vetoed or Withdrawn” to “It has been Vetoed and/or Withdrawn”.
Clarifying that this is an inclusive or rather than an exclusive one, to forestall the possible argument that a proposal that has been both vetoed and withdrawn is actually not unpopular.
BlogNomic is an online Nomic: a self-modifying game where changing the rules is part of the game. Players make blog posts proposing additions or alterations to the ruleset, discussing and casting votes in the comments: if enough vote in favour, the rules are changed and play continues.
The game has been running since 2003 and resets every month or so. Have a look around the wiki for more information and history. New players are always welcome and can join in the game at any time.

Why this one in particular? The core rules have a couple of hundred “or"s in there, including big ones like “may submit a Proposal to change the Ruleset or Gamestate”, and CfJs only being allowed if there is disagreement or urgency.

@Kevan Because it’s the only one that was on my radar! I think enshrining an exclusive or needs a lot of thought, and this doesn’t

Need a lot of thought, that is
I think you know my proposal style well enough by now to appreciate that sometimes a very narrow scope is better. Look, even Bucky voted for, that never happens.

summai:
Would the fact that this particular or is explicitly stated to be inclusive make it a reasonable interpretation that the others are exclusive?
