Reaches quorum 10-0 and is enacted. -scshunt

Change in the rule “The Party Line”
When an Admin resolves a Proposal as Failed, and that Proposal was not Vetoed,
to
When an Admin resolves a Proposal as Failed, and that Proposal was not Vetoed or Self-Killed,
and append to the end of the second paragraph
If the Failed proposal was Self-Killed, and there were more EVCs FOR than AGAINST before the vote that Self-Killed it was cast, its author loses 3 Credibility. If there were more EVCs AGAINST than FOR, its author loses 2 Credibility and each Honourable Member who had a valid FOR vote loses 1 Credibility.
This prevents an author from Self-Killing right before the proposal is enacted, and causing everybody to lose Credibility. Conversely, this lowers penalties if a flaw is discovered late.
nqeron:
sounds reasonable.
