But I’m concerned with the “Set a random non-Idle Student’s Pen Colour to Blue.” because “If more than one Student is a Prefect, then all Blue pens are immediately replaced with Black ones.” both on Kevan’s Proposal.
This might have been a bad move for Josh, actually…

I just see what you did, but are we going to discard the whole Proposal because of that?

No - hopefully the useful bits will be reproposed.

Hum… That still takes Kevan’s slot away; and what if it still passes?

Don’t get me wrong, I’m just wondering if that’s really the way to go here. I mean, usually, the students have been trying to make their Proposals fit into each other (and incentivated to do so, in one way or another, by the rule COR). Wouldn’t this be a “bad conduct example” from the Professor?

In this case, it’d be an example of taking care of rules-mandated duties before reading the proposal queue

Ice: my Pen is Purple, so it won’t trigger the double-prefect clause; I’ll simply become an Aesthete. I get screwed out of my prefecture, which is sad, but nevermind.

[IceFromHell] Josh has a Purple Pen, not a Blue one, and “Nobody’s Prefect” doesn’t do anything to convert his Pen. He’ll just be left with a meaningless Purple Pen if the proposal passes.

Oh, I see. My bad, thanks for the info.
