Proposal: Proposal: Add Orkboi to the turn order

Marked illegal, due to the author changing the post Category outside of the permitted 15-minute window. Adminned by JonathanDark.

If the proposal “Add Bunana to the turn order” passes, add Orkboi to the turn order twice.

Self serving, I know, but only seems fair?

Well….looks like cross posted but the “tag” seems like it was copy and pasted and that you forgot to click check box on the edit stuff for marking it as a proposal

Unfortunately, you’re not permitted to do that after a certain time period, orkboi. In short, within the first 15 minutes, you (or whoever the author is) can fix the category. After that, only the Monarchple can do it (so only Raven1207 in this case). The full rule is this:

A non-official post may not, through editing of the blog or otherwise, be changed into an official post, with the following two exceptions: Firstly, whilst a non-official post has been posted for less than fifteen minutes and has no voting icons in any of its comments, the author may change the categories as they wish. Secondly, if a post is less than six hours old and appears to the Monarchple to have been intended as a Proposal, and if its author does not already have two Proposals pending, then the Monarchple may move it into the Proposal category, causing it to be considered to have been open for voting since the time that the post was first posted.

I’m going to mark this post as illegal due to this violation, but don’t consider it punishment. Raven1207 posted nearly the same Proposal on your behalf, so you’ll still get what you want, and to your benefit, you won’t have an outstanding Proposal slot used up.
