From the Korakus thread:

Forgot the Charter you wrote? Not surprising, since you broke it once.

You can't vote regarding your punishment. Therefore I can vote. Thus, it would be a unanimous decision.
Face it, if you or I offended the Charter, we'd be done for.


This is what happens when you lift whole sections of the Order's Charter...

And this exact situation is precisely why I made a "two-tiered" system. If you let every member of your House vote from the moment they join, you could find your House voted out from under you.

This game is an interesting experiment in different kinds of "Houses." You have dictatorships and you have attempts at something like democracy.

The problem with a dictatorship, is that a lot of players don't feel "included." But it makes decision making very easy for the House Leader.

The problem with "democracy" in this game is that it requires high activity from all players for it to work. I find myself wanting to ignore parts of the Charter and make unilateral rulings simply because the other players who are supposed to "vote" aren't online for days at a time. (One has been gone for weeks.)

This is just a thought-piece that I had floating around...
