I DISAGREE with breadbocks' change regarding expansion of vocabulary. However instead I propose the following amendment to rule 3:

Any of the following may be used to express support for a proposal: "Agree" "Support" "Vote for" "Second"
And any of the following may be used to express lack of support: "Do not agree" "Do not support" "Disagree" "Vote Against"

I propose the following change to rule 6: Instead of the two most supported proposals becoming law, ALL proposals wherein the supporters are a simple majority will be adopted.

I also propose the following alternate rule change to the colored-text requirement, since it's simpler for people posting but still makes the words jump out: "All expressions of support or disagreement (Agree, Support, Vote For, Second, Do Not Agree, Do Not Support, Disagree, Vote Against) must be completely capitalized in order to be counted."

I propose the following new rule: each turn, for each proposal that was adopted, the player who proposed it receives two points.


Also, keep in mind guys, even if like me you're voting that posts can't be edited, that rule isn't in effect yet so you can still edit your old posts to say "Support" instead of "Agree."

I also SUPPORT all of Africa's suggestions, except for the first two, of which I somewhat DISAGREE.
I SUPPORT the candy proposal
I DISAGREE with the no-editing rule.
I SUPPORT numbering of the rules.
I PROPOSE using any word that shows you SUPPORT a suggestion to be valid, as well as all that, but replace SUPPORT with DISAGREE.

I prepose that you have to make a pun every time you make a disagreement.

*SUPPORT*, and as far as I'm concerned, now in effect. Nobody said they had to be good ones.
I disagree with the proposal by Siquo regarding colours.  Should make it a lot easier to tally up votes.
Huh what?
I propose the following new rule: each turn, for each proposal that was adopted, the player who proposed it receives two points.
*Disagree*, pointy adoption after proposals is not in the turn of this relationship.
Proposal to add a rule: Players must add the keyword: 'Bananasplit' to any post containing a proposal to add a rule to the ruleset.
*Disagree*, you must be bananas, plit.

I wish to propose that only up to 5 proposed rules may exist at any time to prevent confusion due to too many rules at any one point.
*Disagree*: This begs the question: how many propositions fit in any one point?
Anyone can make a proposition. Some kind of overview on propositions and who voted what for each would be nice, though.

The above two posts were made after the turn ended.  The proposition by Stany (and reply by Siquo) should be considered part of the second turn.

Unfortunately, Stanys votes cannot be counted into round 1s results.

I'll tally up the votes and post the new ruleset in about an hour (gotta go buy some tasty carcinogens)

Me - Players are not permitted to edit posts -  3 support 6 disagree.  Score = -3

SHADOWdump - I propose all players must post a picture displaying delicious candy. - 1 support 7 disagree.  Score = -6

siquo - Modify rule #3 - addition: When you *support*, the text *support* must be in blue, when you *disagree* the text *disagree* must be in red. Otherwise it is not counted as a vote. - 2 support 4 disagree.  Score = -2

Tylui - The initial ruleset will be numbered 1 through 7, and every new rule thenceforth will have a number that is one higher than the rule just before it. - 6 support 0 disagree.  Score = 6

Armok - "All rules proposed should be given a Name, for ease of reference", I name this proposal "Rules have names." - 1 support 1 disagree.  Score = 0

Africa - Amendment proposal to rule 5 (only permitted to vote once): Change text to: "Players may cast one vote each per proposal. If they wish to change their vote after casting it, they must add a new post where they declare their annulment of their previous vote and declare their new vote. If such a change is declared after the turn has already changed and the proposal's votes have been tallied, the declaration will be null and void." - 3 support 2 disagree.  Score = 1

the following amendment to rule 3: Any of the following may be used to express support for a proposal: "Agree" "Support" "Vote for" "Second"
And any of the following may be used to express lack of support: "Do not agree" "Do not support" "Disagree" "Vote Against" - 1 support 1 disagree.  Score = 0

I propose the following change to rule 6: Instead of the two most supported proposals becoming law, ALL proposals wherein the supporters are a simple majority will be adopted. - 2 support 0 disagree.  Score = 2

I also propose the following alternate rule change to the colored-text requirement, since it's simpler for people posting but still makes the words jump out: "All expressions of support or disagreement (Agree, Support, Vote For, Second, Do Not Agree, Do Not Support, Disagree, Vote Against) must be completely capitalized in order to be counted." - 2 support 0 disagree.  Score = 2

I propose the following new rule: each turn, for each proposal that was adopted, the player who proposed it receives two points. - 2 support 1 disagree.  Score = 1

Blackdutchie - Proposal to add a rule: Players must add the keyword: 'Bananasplit' to any post containing a proposal to add a rule to the ruleset. - 0 support 4 disagree.  Score = -4

breadbocks - I propose a rule in which any form of agree is accepted for a support vote (Like yes, agree, support, like, etc.) and any form of disagree is accepted for a disagree vote (Like no, disagree, refuse, dislike, etc.) - 0 support 2 disagree.  Score = -2

fivex - I PROPOSE using any word that shows you SUPPORT a suggestion to be valid, as well as all that, but replace SUPPORT with DISAGREE. - 0 support 0 disagree.  Score = 0

iceball3 - I prepose that you have to make a pun every time you make a disagreement. - 2 support 1 disagree.  Score = 1

Winning rules are:

The initial ruleset will be numbered 1 through 7, and every new rule thenceforth will have a number that is one higher than the rule just before it. - 6 support 0 disagree.

And:

Uhh, hard to say.  A few rules had a voter score of 2, so either they all go in, or only the above rule does.
Quote
At the end of the turn, the two proposed rule changes with the greatest explicit support from all current players are implemented.
In my interpretation, there is only one rule which can fit in this, so I'm incorporating the numbering rule and leaving all others out for now.  I'll change this if enough people disagree with it.

PS  Man, that was a pain in the ass.  Could people quote rules when voting please?  It's not a rule, but would make it a LOT easier on me  :D

Oh, god yes! I *SUPPORT* this.
proposal: If you disagree with a post, you must react as if you are countering a spell with a spell.
I *DISAGREE WITH* this.

I *PROPOSE* that any rule with a majority of players voting for it is passed, and in the event of no rule having majority, the next most-voted for is passed. If there is a tie in the previous instance, no rule is passed.

I *SUPPORT* this.
