Proposal: Tenure

Can’t enacted with five votes against. Failed 1-5 by Kevan.

If the proposal “Incentives” failed, then add the following paragraph to the rule “Teacher Training”:-

If this list of conditions contains five or more items and at least 60% of them are struck through, then Proposals may not be vetoed and all votes of DEFERENTIAL are ignored. This takes precedence over the Core Rules.

This proposal is a correction, with the Incentives proposal as its citation.

Josh’s suggestion of having a sufficient number of poor behaviours end the game and undo all gameplay to that point would, I feel, be an error. I suggest we simply revoke the Professor’s veto and deferential powers. And on a lesser note, although a 60% cut-off point is reasonable, it’s only two out of three at the moment; I think we should encourage some further conditions before we start using it.

against Not keen on “If this list of conditions contains five or more items” - I think that incentivises the Professor to block proposals that add new conditions.

He can’t do much to “block” a proposal. Going as far as vetoing popular suggestions would almost certainly burn up enough goodwill for players to just CfJ an end to the dynasty.

against dislike losing the veto. If it gets abused, we should do something about it, but not as part of standard game procedure
