Proposal: Sticks and Carrots

Timed out. Failed 2-9.—Clucky

Adminned at 17 Jan 2007 12:38:00 UTC

Add to the bulleted list at the end of “Training”:

* When enacting a Proposal that has been open for vote for no more than 18 hours, the Admin doing so shall award 1 Training Point to each Olympian who has cast a counted vote on such Proposal. The implicit vote of the Proposal’s author is also counted.

* When enacting or failing a timed-out Proposal, the admin doing so shall take 1 TP from each Olympian who has not cast a vote on such Proposal. If that would bring an Olympian’s Training Points to less than zero, said Olympian shall lose 1 Popularity instead.

Add a “Admining” sub-rule to “Popularity”:

When enacting a Proposal that has been open for vote for no more than 18 hours, the Admin doing so may award eirself 1 Popularity.

If more than half of all comments containing counted votes also contain the text “24 is better”, change both instances of “18” above to “24”.

If more than half of all comments containing counted votes also contain the text “Not Pop”, change the instance “may award eirself 1 Popularity” above to “may award eirself 2 Training Points.”

for This doesn’t make voting into a fire drill, it makes it into a real fire. This will not allow things to happen like last weekend

Some people cannot get on every 18 hours—or even 24. If you were supposed to be super active and vote in every proposal, the rules would say so. But instead, it is designed so that people with even limited access to the internets can still play blognomic.

I like the concept but I agree, 18 hours is too short…  against
