    Okay Trip, looks like the first positive step you have taken so far. Good post, although you should have posted a thread for debate about it before posting the poll

    I too must eat my vote for the Banana

      Since parties dominate the Executive, and members of the Executive are the ones conducting polls for the most part, you are proposing that the pollers judge their own polls. Good plan.

      OTOH, polls started by members of the public at large are usually going to be due to vocal opposition to what the Executive are doing. Again, the Executive will be the judge of these polls. Great plan.

      I reject this document as it stands.

        I'm not judging anything. I'm setting down some rules and seeing if people agree that they should be enacted. Why do you disagree with them? Just because I made them? Hmmmm, that makes sense...

          If these rules are not abided by, anyone may consider the poll invalid. If someone believes a poll to not be following these rules and declares it invalid, then a vote may be conducted among the elected officials listed in the ‘Current Administration’ thread to be either ‘valid’ or ‘invalid’. If the poll is deemed invalid, then its results cannot be used for any official purposes regarding the game. A poll deemed invalid cannot be voted on again unless it abides by the rules regarding a repoll.

          What does that say Trip?

            Then what do you suggest, if you're so clever?

              Jettison the bit about the fox guarding the hen house.

              No rule is better than that rule, although I have made some other suggestions.

                If there's no way to enforce the invalidations of polls, then what? All these are just fancy words that I've thrown together that don't mean anything. 'If you do this, then we'll... uh... scold you! That's it!'

                    Trip. If you want to formalize the invalidation of polls, then a solution other than the Executive judging it's own polls is needed.

                    Suggesting there are no alternatives seems a bit silly to me.

                      I didn't say it was the only solution. If someone has a better idea, then I'm all for it. So far no one has suggested a better way AFAIK. Either that, or they don't think it's good enough to officially impliment, because I don't remember seeing a poll asking about it.

                          I do not believe there has been any discussion of your plan for judging polls as valid or not Trip.

                          The absense of a rule would be better than a rule of tyranny.

                            great idea. To do something like this one definitely needs specifics and guidlines where ever possible, at least within reason.

                              NO, too complicated, overorganization, too restrictive

                              Maybe i shrunkne form would work though...

                                Well, more people are voting 'yes' than 'no' so I suppose that means something.

                                And why would a Senate be any better than the current ministers as far as judging? They'd be people just like the ministers, there's no difference.
