Formally your edict did not get enough seconds, but since you already have 4 members I propose we count them as "seconded" so you can have your house.

and...*humhum*.... in OOC we don't demand, we request ;-)

He can't have his house just because he has seconds. Thats what the vote is for.

I think we need to wait until the rank reforms are in place before we create houses.

**Tiberius Claudius Marcellus** · 03-19-2009, 22:21

I agree with Bean on that one - there are so many changes coming into effect that none of us or many of us may be eligible to create houses.

Also, I demand satisfaction! *ducks* (Just for Swiss I'll request satisfaction re: my vote initiative; but it better be good satisfaction)

I disagree. Having 4 (or any number) who would be members of a house != having an edict seconded. Since they didn't do it, we can't just pretend they did, so the edict shouldn't even go to voting.

Edit: by the way, on the subject of creating a new voting thread I kind of agree.

for TCV for common sense re: voting thread

**Iskander 3.1** · 03-19-2009, 22:50

With all due respect to Navarro, I agree about a new voting thread too.

(I'm always late for things that would get me balloons!)

That is not something you will have to deal with. Thats my job to count the votes, not as a any character I will not miss one. And I am not going to let other edicts be allowed without seconds. 6.4 was allowed simply because I missed a seconding. That is all. I will count the votes same as always. And it does not matter, 6.4 appears unanimous anyway.

If it was not during the time of legislation proposal...its a no go. Rules are rules.

What about 6.5?

Both TCV and TCM seconded it!

Aww, you can have a cake for second place.

But edict 6.5 got two seconds (me and TCM), so it should've been up for voting, and the whole thing was just a mess. We mean no disrespect towards you when we say this, of course (hey, everyone makes mistakes... and the rest of us aren't innocent either

), it's just more proper that way. That's my 2 small ones.

Okay well i hope you understand if we revote today, It means another 2 days delaying. Not to mention edict 6.5 i sorta useless. Cotta is a praetor, and therefore, probably wont be running for anything anyway. I dont understand the point.

Thank you very much to all who supported the new voting referendum, and to navarro951 for all the hard work involved. Despite my having said that it is 'unsightly, nasty, and lazy', please know that that was not a direct statement of what I think of you. It was my personal opinion as to how I would want others to view anything that I had done and why I wanted the new vote thread.

TCV: everyone does indeed make mistakes, in fact, in recalling certain events in my life I stopped and thought about an occasion where I believed I had made one. However, upon closer introspection, I realized that I had not made a mistake at that time, thereby making my very first mistake by assuming I had ever actually made one in the first place.
