Proposal: Slightly Different Idea

Times out 4-4. Failed by Brendan.

Adminned at 08 Dec 2021 20:31:14 UTC

If a Dynastic Rule entitled “Can Opener” exists, append the following to its text: “The Dark One may not cast a vote of VETO on a Can Opener Proposal; any such vote is disregarded for the purposes of proposal resolution.”.

Enact a new Dynastic Rule entitled “Bottle Opener” with the following text:

A proposal that only enacts, amends, retitles, repeals, or otherwise alters Perdurable Rules is called a Bottle Opener proposal. The Dark One may not cast a vote of VETO on a Bottle Opener Proposal; any such vote is disregarded for the purposes of proposal resolution. If a pending Bottle Opener proposal has a number of FOR votes exceeding or equaling Quorum, has not been withdrawn, and is the oldest pending proposal, then any Admin can enact it, regardless of its Popularity or Unpopularity.

Adds VETO prohibitions to Can Opener proposals, and adds a different attempt at bypassing the restrictions just in case Josh’s is found to not work (though it looks it works to me).

This should probably just repeal can opener if it passes; otherwise there’s redundancy.

Redundancy is kind of the point. Having both gives a better chance of at least one working. And if either works, repealing two rules doesn’t take more effort than repealing one.
