I vote for motion 307

I propose a motion reading: Every rule concerning victory conditions at the onset of the acceptance of this rule must be in the format "In order to be victorious, __________, and meet all other victory conditions should they exist."

I propose a second motion reading: In order to be victorious, a player must have at least 3 motions they have issued enacted, and meet all other victory conditions should they exist.

I vote AYE on motion 308.

Motion:
There may only be five Motions outstanding at a time. Additional Motions proposed past five will be invalid. If there are at any time more than five Motions, no new Motions may be proposed until there are less than five Motions.

Motion:
A Motion awaiting further votes will automatically expire and be removed from the list of Motions 24 hours after it is proposed, or after a vote was last cast on it, whichever is later.

Something to point out:
Michilus' vote had 4 words in it.

Commentary:
I think there are too many Motions outstanding and don't want to have to keep track of a whole bunch of them - don't you all agree?

I vote for motion 308 and motion 309

Commentary: I agree... but I don't like the idea of limiting it to just 5 either. We just need a way of getting rid of motions that aren't getting voted for. When the game is more active there will be more motions, but when it slows down it won't matter as much.

Notes: Man, this is getting really a lot harder to keep track of then I expected.

Maybe could just update the original post?

comment: It really kind of pisses me off that my 3 person rule is backfiring so hard. It basically means one player can run the board with spam unless at least 4 other players are playing just as hard :/

I vote in approval of motion 314.

(or 214, whatever it is)

Comment: I agree Swifty, next round should have something to prevent me from doing what I'm doing.

I vote for motion 313

I also propose a new motion: The judge/judges must update the game only in valid segments of 4 or larger. IE: The judge/judges must wait for 4 valid posts to be made before officially validating any post.
