Proposal: Welcome to Asidonhopo’s voting service!

Self-vetoed (a vote which, oddly enough, can be CoV’d!)
Failed by Hix

Adminned at 04 Jun 2010 09:16:14 UTC

Add a new rule called “Killed by Mr. Asidonhopo, the shopkeeper”, as follows:

Asidonhopo is an @ for the purposes of the Ruleset, but never goes Idle. Whenever a proposal is adminned, the admin adminning it shall roll DICE2 in the GNDT. If the result is 1, Asidonhopo votes AGAINST the proposal. If the roll is 2, Asidonhopo votes FOR the proposal.

We aren’t random enough to be NetHack yet.

against By the time a proposal is “adminned” (a vague term, which I would take to include such things as editing the “Admin” field of the post.  “Resolve” is a Glossary-defined term that probably is what you are looking for), it’s too late to alter the vote count.

against  due to multiple issues.
*Rather than say Asidonhopo is an @ for the purposes of the Ruleset, say e’s an entity that counts as an @ for the purposes of a list of specific rules to avoid complications e.g. with Rule 3.2.5
*Highly abusable when a proposal is one vote off quorum, since it can only be adminned if Asidonhopo votes the correct way.

against  I like random, and I’m Im all for involving the angry shopkeeper, but I agree with Hix.

veto  s/v per Hix, and Bucky’s second point.
