Proposal: Reduce Bucky’s Influence

7-0. Timed Out.—Chronos

Adminned at 21 Jul 2006 07:42:46 UTC

Ignore text in italics in this proposal.

It looks like the last 2 attempts to undo Bucky’s scam are going to fail, not because anybody thinks Bucky should keep the Influence but because they tried to do other things at the same time.  So, here’s a (relatively) simple proposal that only affects Bucky’s influence.

If more than half the counting FOR votes contain the phrase “that’s a bit harsh” then (for the purposes of this proposal) let X represent 10, otherwise let X represent 12.  If Bucky’s Influence is greater than X at the time of the enactment of this proposal, reduce Bucky’s Influence by X, otherwise set it to 0.

against “that’s a bit harsh” He earned it.

Fine.  But if this passes, whoever admins this should note that Chronos’ “that’s a bit harsh” doesn’t count because it’s on an AGAINST vote not a FOR vote.

for that’s a bit harsh
Further grumbling (read: restrained telling off) about AGAINST votes not having a say as to which mode happens.

for I don’t agree that he particularly earned it - if he did something victory-triggering with the extra Influence during the period between unidling and a proposal being made to penalise him (and something clever to stop other players exploiting the same scam), then fair enough, but this was mundane and game-pestering stuff.
