Proposal: Shortcut

Timed out and enacted, 3-2 with 2 unresolved DEFs. Josh

If a single Plan is allocated 1 on half or more of the Ballots of non-Selfish non-Excluded Drafters, and its author is not Selfish, that Plan’s author achieves victory. Otherwise, do nothing.

As of right now, there is no need to go through with actually resolving the ranked choice election because one Drafter is clearly winning.

We could wait 48 hours to see if there are enough Ballot changes to move someone else into the lead (with each change resetting the timer!), or just use a proposal to cut out the waiting period. (This proposal is worded so that if there is substantial movement during its voting period, it will end up doing nothing.)

This is “half or more” rather than “more than half” because a Drafter cannot vote on their own Plan.

A not-exactly-impartial for , noting that this was why I wanted a date-based cutoff

I’m fine with this, given the current trend.

against Seems fairer to wait the full 48 hours, if the ruleset has established that as the expected pace for reaction times. We’re going into the weekend anyway.

CoV imperial given that the rules were buggy, and this is about victory, I don’t think I should be deciding deferentials on it
