I, Servant Corps, hereby submit the following proposition, dubbed Grammar Correction, to the court to judge:
The word "it's" shall be replaced by the word "its" in the phrase: 'I respectfully ask all members of the court to carefully consider it's merits and cast their vote accordingly.' This will change the sentence to mean "I respectfully ask all members of the court to carefully consider its merits and cast their vote accordingly."

Servant Corps, you jumped the gun a little bit, but oh well. :3  Also!  You should make it so the Proposition would give The Judge full power to modify the rules FOR GRAMMATICAL ERRORS ONLY.  That way we won't need to waste Propositions.

And I have a question for you all.  If you notice in the points changes, I gave 4 people the +5, even though the rules state lowest three.  The problem is that there were 3 people with the same number of points.  Was this okay? y/n?  We should Propose a clarification for it, once a consensus is reached.

This would do several things for us:
  • Free up lots of space on the board
  • Allow us to discuss Propositions before voting
  • No meta-voting(Oh, this one's losing anyway, so I'll vote no)
  • Possibly save people from getting angry at people down-voting their Proposition
  • Other things I can't think of right now.





EDIT: Wow Boksi, I think you and I were thinking of different solutions to the same thing.  Maybe.  They're kinda contradictory, huh?  Although, I like the monocle bit. ;)

You forgot to add "dubbed".

Now that I think about it, there's no failure clause in that rule, so nothing will actually happen to you...
