Brendan said “So anything not forbidden is permitted?  I’ll concede to the late Mayor’s opinion on this, but for the record, I’m a dissenting opinion.”

No, I quite agree on that; Rule 1.1 specifically tells us that only things which are permitted are permitted. But you are permitted to a nighttime proposal post with “Town Meeting” in its title, according to the standard proposal rule, and there’s nothing else that says that you can’t.

If the Town Meeting mechanic had been written so that they weren’t proposals, they were just blog entries in a certain format, then there’d be no legal way to post one at night. As it stands, though, your illegal Town Meeting was just a perfectly legal proposal that happened to have “Town Meeting” in the title.

which doesn’t automatically fail it, it just makes it a normal proposal, not a town meeting, allowing everyone to vote in it…and probablty causes Kevan to veto it.

Oh, we finally have a new   icon.  The old one’s been around since the time travel dynasty.

yeah. The old veto icon predates me. Which come to think of it, makes it rather old by now =P
