Part 1:
Rename Rule 1.5 (presently entitled “Enactment”) to “Resolution of Proposals”.  In that rule, change the phrase “passed or failed” to “enacted or failed”

Part 2
Rewrite Rule 1.4 in its entirety to read as follows:

Any Voter may cast his Vote on a Votable Matter by making a comment to the official post that comprises that Votable Matter using a voting icon of FOR, AGAINST, DEFERENTIAL (only if the Votable Matter is a Proposal), or VETO (only if the Votable Matter is a Proposal and the Voter is the Returning Officer).

In the case of a Propsoal, If the Voter who made the Proposal has not cast a Vote on it, his Vote is counted as FOR. If a Voter uses more than one Voting Icon in comments on a Votable Matter, his Vote is the last voting icon he uses. If a Voter leaves the game or goes Idle, his Vote is no longer valid. If a Voter votes against his own Proposal, that vote may not be changed. This is referred to as a Self-Kill.

A Vote of DEFERENTIAL is a vote of no opinion, or of faith in the decision of the Returning Officer. The vote will count as the same as the Returning Officer’s Vote. If the Returning Officer casts a Vote of DEFERENTIAL on a Proposal, it serves the purpose of cancelling any previous Vote on that Proposal that was cast by the Returning Officer. If there is no Returning Officer, a vote of DEFERENTIAL counts as an explicit Vote of abstention.

If no Returning Officer has voted on a Proposal, a vote of DEFERENTIAL on that proposal does not count as a vote for the purposes of rule 1.5.

Part 3:
In Rule 3.1 “Keywords”, add the following definitions:

Resolve/Resolution
