Article III: Polling currently reads
in the first paragraph. The bolded text is the part I find improper, and quite frankly silly. Unofficial polls need to label themselves as such in the first post? Then I'm sure we've many accidentally official polls. I suggest replacing that line with:
There is a cleanup effort to be done, defining such terms as 'invalidating a poll', and which polls can be invalided. This is a start. It is my belief that this was written in haste, and not considered carefully.
Any suggestions? Should other parts of the reformatting take place in the same amendment?
Another issue is the ability of both the court and the ministry to invalidate a poll. It is my belief that invalidate means to make an official poll, unofficial, so you cannot invalidate an already unofficial poll. Also, giving both the ministry and court the ability to overrule a poll, which group overrides the other? (court)
Thoughts on this?
Polls may be conducted in an ‘unofficial’ format to simply gain information, but CANNOT be used in any official decisions. All of the following rules are regarding ‘official’ polls, which may or may not be used as official results for the actual game. Any unofficial polls must be labeled as so within the first post.
Any official polls must be labeled as such within the first post or thread subject.
