Rewording thoughts for CfJ to prevent past enactments

If two or more Artists actively disagree as to the interpretation of the Ruleset, or if an Artist feels that an aspect of the game needs urgent attention, then any Artist may raise a Call for Judgment (abbreviated CfJ) by posting an entry in the “Call for Judgment” category, at this point the CfJ is considered Open.
All Artists may cast Votes on any Open CfJ to indicate agreement or disagreement with the position taken in that CfJ. Open CfJs continue until they reach a Quorum of FOR Votes, a Quorum of AGAINST Votes, or until 48 hours have passed since they were posted. After this time, if more than half the cast Votes are FOR Votes, the CfJ may be enacted by any Admin by updating or correcting the Gamestate and Ruleset as specified. Otherwise, the CfJ fails. A Failed CfJ has no further effect.  At this point the CfJ becomes Closed.
Any CfJ that has no effect on the ruleset or gamestate may be automatically failed by any admin.
This Rule may not be overruled by Dynastic Rules.

This could be interpreted to mean that a CfJ only becomes Closed when it fails. I’d say:

When a CfJ fails or is enacted, the CfJ becomes Closed.

I have a better idea which is the extend pending/open/failed to all votable matters.

What Pavitra said, although coppro’s idea to make CfJs Votable Matters is a better one IMO.

This sentence seems kind of awkward to me.  Maybe, for clarity:

...by posting an entry in the “Call for Judgment” category, and at this point the CfJ is considered Open.

Or just change the comma to a semicolon.
