      Proserpine, I suppose that's one reason why GePap wants to get a different set of laws going in that other thread.

      The COL has been tranformed into a Constitution by public perception and it is supposed to be the rules about the C3DG game structure & procedures. Changes to that are serious and require 2/3 approval.

      Other laws, such as procedures and policies aren't listed anywhere officially, but if they pass with 50% or more, we generally accept them as being binding. Examples: Plan Eagle or Case Pink/Teal. These are more flexible and generally temporal... and they generally don't affect the rules and structure of the C3DG game outside the ingame.

      It would not be a bad idea to list these either or consider them as "regular" laws, policies, and procedures. Then, only the amendments to the COL and impeachment would have a 2/3 approval requirement.

      Not everything we decide is serious enough to warrant being an amendment to the COL. Namely, we make plenty of polls and decisions, not all of them need to be cluttering the COL. If they're important enough, we could put them in a different COL (and rename the first to Constitution). Example: Putting Uber's Pop-rushing poll into some kind of law book which can be changed upon simple majority repoll, but keeping it out of the Constitution (as it doesn't affect how we interact, only what we do ingame).

      Hmm, maybe I should put this in its own thread.

        I'd vote yes, but the stupid thing won't let me. Is this some evil DIA conspiracy ?
