Times out and fails 5-9. -scshunt

Add a subrule to rule 2.2 ““Unanimous” Consent”, call it “Fast Veto” and give it the text:
If there exists a comment from the Speaker on a given pending Proposal that contains both the ARROW
and VETO
icons, then that Proposal may be failed by any Admin.
I like how it only works if the Speaker wants it to; he could just never use it.
It may lose my credibility but I will never vote for the speedy veto. Read my lips: no speedy veto!
I wouldn’t have voted for it, but we already have fast passing and failing.
Yeah, and that mechanism applies to vetoes as well. It’s sufficient; I don’t want the emperor deciding to hand proposal slots back by fiat.
But remember that the speaker no longer has a vote before 48 hours. Opinion could still be expressed this way.
Vetoes aren’t restricted in the same way as other votes.

I’m usually against fast veto, but as RaichuKFM said, we already have fast thing, and I don’t like having to cast a vote on a Proposal that has been vetoed already.
I don’t want to have to vote on a proposal that’s going to fail anyway to avoid losing credibility; I’m not supporting this for automatic slot return; I usually don’t expend my allotted slots. I’m in favor of the clearing of the cache aspect. Again, I would not usually support this, but in a dynasty that is focusing on messing with core mechanics, especially voting, I think this is appropriate.
oh wait, you’ve realized that punishing people who vote against passing proposals is *also* a bad idea?
I like how “Lets have a dynasty that messes with the voting mechanics” has turned into “lets try to add every single terrible way to mess with voting mechanics we can”
Speaking of which, a sizable amount of us are looking at a loss of Credibility. But I’m going down with this ship!
