Proposal: The League of True Botanists

Fails at 3-9. -Purplebeard

Adminned at 16 Jun 2011 01:05:33 UTC

Create a new rule entitled “League of True Botanists”:-

True Botanists are Farmers who belong to the League of True Botanists and support Florw as their Landlord.  True Botanist status is tracked within the GNDT.  Only Florw may bestow True Botanist status; he will inform the Farmers whom he has bestowed True Botanist status upon by private message.  True Botanist status is not mandatory if bestowed; a Farmer may accept or refuse True Botanist status.  If a Farmer accepts True Botanist status, they must alter the GNDT immediately to reflect this acceptance.  True Botanist status is permanent and irrevocable upon acceptance.  If at least seven (7) Farmers become True Botanists, Florw immediately assumes the position of Landlord.  If another Landlord is already in existence, they become a normal Farmer and lose their Landlord status.  Upon Florw’s assumption of Landlordship, the title “Landlord” immediately is changed to “High Keeper of the Secrets of the Grand Art of Botany”.  Also, upon Florw’s assumption of Landlordship, all Players are immediately, without choice, drafted into the League of True Botanists.

against .  Among numerous other objections, it does not follow the normal procedure for dynasty switching.

Who said it was dynasty switching?

against This doesn’t really do anything. Even if you get a quorum of people to agree to let you win for no reason, you can’t bestow True Botanist status, by rule 3.3.5

He keeps it for completely trivial proposals. :P

Just kidding Yoda, I think you’re doing a great job.

Doctor29: I figure that if people really really really want a rule like this to be in, who am I to stop them?  I’m trusting that there’s enough sane people active right now who won’t vote for something like this, and it seems my assumption is correct. :-)

Ely:

for Because Yoda’s assumptions can’t be correct.

for Because I think this might be part of a scam. It’s not going to pass anyway, but if the scam works, I want to be in favour of it.

I thought this might be something about proposal enactement, but I can’t find the weak spot in the ruleset.

Yoda: Your reply was just begging for people to change their vote out of spite.  Alas, I am too sane to do so.
