Proposal: May the force be against you

Self-killed; the trifecta is complete. Failed by Angry Grasshopper.

Add a new Dynastic rule, entitled “The Proposalforce” , to the ruleset:

There exists a force of balance in the universe, this force is known as the Proposalforce. The curent state of the Proposalforce is tracked in the GNDT as an integer, which may be negitive. Whenever an Admin enacts or fails a proposal, e adds the final tally of FOR votes to the Proposalforce, and subtracts the final tally of AGAINST votes from the Proposalforce. 

When a proposal is posted, (Proposalforce/10) FOR votes are cast for it, these votes are considered to be cast by the Proposalforce. If this would cause FOR votes to be removed, then AGAINST votes are added instead.

against Too random, besides having a poor wording about the negative results.

imperial Random yes, but I think I might like that. Is Proposalforce/10 rounded towards or away from zero? Also there should probably be a cap on Proposalforce.

Who says that it has to be an integer?

against I don’t want to feel obligated to start voting for proposals I don’t like just because the Proposalforce is at -60 and it’s becoming impossible to do anything.

against S-K. The proposalforce is supposed to make AGAINST votes, not for ones.
