Proposal: Under New Management

Timed out and passed, 5-3. Josh

Adminned at 17 Feb 2013 08:23:14 UTC

Add a new rule entitled “La Revolución”:

As a weekly action, an Honourable Member (the Usurper) may attempt to overthrow the government by spending 2 Political Capital, setting their Credibility to 0 and making a post (a Coup) entitled “Coup d’état”. Any Honourable Member other than the Speaker may Support or Oppose this attempt by spending 1 Political Capital and posting a FOR or AGAINST voting icon, respectively, in a comment to the Coup (voting icons in comments to Coups for which no Political Capital was spent will be ignored for the purposes of this rule). An Honourable Member may Support and/or Oppose a Coup more than once.

A Coup may be resolved once by any Honourable Member other than the Speaker if 48 hours have passed since it was posted and at least 6 hours have passed since it was last Supported or Opposed. If, at that time, the Coup has more FOR icons in its comments than AGAINST icons, it succeeds and the Usurper has achieved victory.

against  No.  Why are we voting to allow people to throw down our government?

for I want to see someone try this. I highly doubt victory will be achieved this way anyway.
