Proposal: Sublime Minus Ridiculous

Timed out and passed, 7-2. Josh

Adminned at 23 Apr 2009 07:44:39 UTC

In Rule 2.10 (Subliminal Advertising), replace “When the Act is declared to be closed, any Scripter who has an uncut scene which contains subliminal advertising may declare the advertising. They should do so by posting a comment in the voting thread for that Act, outlining the nature of the advertising, and may claim 5 Royalties for doing so.” with:-

When the Act is declared to be closed, any Scripter who has an uncut scene which contains subliminal advertising may declare the advertising. They should do so by posting a comment in the voting thread for that Act, outlining the nature of the advertising. The Producer may award 5 Royalties to any Scripter who he feels has implemented a worthy piece of subliminal advertising, to a maximum of 5 Royalties per Scripter per Act.

In Rule 2.11 (Taking the Initiative), replace “(other than “Bonus Features”)” with:-

(other than “Bonus Features” and “Subliminal advertising”)

Reproposal with chair abuse ruled out. This does rely on Devenger being around occasionally, but only very occasionally (he can hand out the rewards at any time after the advertising has been declared).

I’m not sure that a slow accretion of CfJ precedents is much better.

A random question is the producer capable of voting deferentially and if he can what happens?

If I voted DEF now, my vote would be by definition invalid - I effectively would not have voted. (Rule 1.4: “The Producer cannot cast a vote of DEFERENTIAL.”) Some emperors have done this to make a point, like Amnistar last dynasty.
