This is a proposal to amend rule 321. Please contribute to the debate or cast your ballot on the discussion page.

Proposed by --Tucana25 02:49, 1 May 2007 (EDT)

Rule 321 shall be amended to read:

The 'Judge of Nomicapolis' shall be voted for on the first of every month. The Judge may resign the position at any time.

Voting procedure shall be as follows...

• The Player that recieves the most votes will become the Judge.
• In the event of a tie between 1 or more Players the Player that recieved the most votes first will become the Judge.
• Should no votes be cast in a monthly election, the previous judge will retain the title.
• If at any time there is not an active Player as Judge a special vote for a new Judge will be immediately conducted
• The Judge may be expelled with a supermajority vote.
• The decision of the Judge can only be overruled by a unanimous vote of all active players (except the player who was Judge at the time of the decision in question, who shall not vote).

Responsibilities shall be as follows...

• The Judge will be responsible for resolving any and all problems with proposals and rules.
• The Judge will be expected to use their best judgement and resolve all problems within 7 days.
• The Judge shall make a judgement whenever called upon to do so by any active player.
• The Judge shall abide by stare decisis.
• A new page entitled "Decisions of the Judge" shall be created to hold such decisions, and shall be maintained by the current Judge.
• Any Player may accuse another Player of a violation of the rules. The Judge will determine if the accused Player is guilty and, if guilty will determine the punishment. A Player found guilty may ask for a decision to be overruled (in cases such as this neither the judge, accusee, and accuser may vote).
