If there is a rule called “Proposalnym” then in it replace “As a Round Action, a Wordsmith who has posted a Proposalnym since the last time Acrogenerate was performed may claim 1 point.” with
A Wordsmith’s EVC on a Proposalnym should contain the word “Valid” if that Wordsmith believes the content of the proposal fits the title that was given to it.
When a Proposalnym is resolved, if a quorum of the EVCs made by Wordsmiths other than the Proposal’s author contain the word “Valid”, then the Proposal’s author gains 1 point; unless the author already gained a point from this method for the same Backronym in which case the author does not gain any points.
The Puzzler is considered to be a Wordsmith for the purposes of this rule.
Idea is to prevent people from simply throwing up proposals with meaningless titles, instantly withdrawing them, and scoring points from that method.
The escalation from one point per round to one point per proposal would make proposal titles more important than the actual Backronyms.
Josh: he/they
I think that the second paragraph is missing some words.
