Proposal: This cheese is too hard!
Times out, passes 7-1. Enacted by Personman. As well more than half of the comments contained the word cheese, I get a cheese.

Any time a Gostak does something especially noteworthy in the cause of improving the core ruleset of blognomic, or which is otherwise cool or neat, or maybe even which involves making cool new gadgets for blognomic, or stuff, let him be awarded a wheel of cheese. Cheese may only be awarded by proposal, or, if on any proposal more than one-half of the counted voting comments include the word ‘cheese’, the proposer recieves one cheese. No Gostak may have more than 10 cheeses.

All Entities have a Cheese value, tracked in the GNDT in a column entitled Cheese. When an Entity is Awarded a Cheese, that Entity's Cheese value goes up by one. No Entity's Cheese value may be higher than ten; all attempts to add to an Entity's Cheese value when it is equal to 10 fail. Entities may only be Awarded a Cheese by proposal, or by the passage of a Proposal, proposed by em, for which more than one fourth of the counted voting comments contain the word 'cheese' and not the phrase 'no cheese', and more of the counted voting comments contain the word 'cheese' and not the phrase 'no cheese' than contain the phrase 'no cheese'.
Cheese is meant to be Awarded to those who have contributed in a particularly helpful or awesome way to Blognomic, whether through excellence in rule design, the creation of helpful tools for the players of Blognomic, or any other act worthy of, well, cheese.
If it is not already italicized, italicize the last sentence of rule 2.1. (EE's preview is showing it unitalicized, though I have surrounded it (and the parenthetical note enclosing this one) in flavor text tags. I hope it works, but if it doesn't, this sentence shall save the day!)
I've been noticing that a lot of worthy proposals are only being nominated for cheese late in their lifetime, and people who have already voted, and might have wanted to give cheese but simply not thought of it, are not coming back and checking on the proposal, as they've already voted, and thuse not enough cheese votes are present. This should make that a bit less of a problem, and I took the opportunity to generally clean up the Cheese rule as well.
