Nah, I'd get rid of carrying the nominations over - if people don't care to give you a Medal of Honour, there's no reason to assume they will in the next month. (And there's no way to reject all of the nominees other than just not voting)
I intend to Rubberstamp the following proposal as Herald, without 3 Objections: "No quorum, no medal" AI = 1.0 In rule 2529 "Medals of Honour", replace the following: "After a player is awarded a Medal of Honour, all players who were previously eligible for a Medal of Honour become no longer eligible." With: "After a resolution of an Agoran Decision on who is to be awarded a Medal of Honour, all players who were previously eligible for a Medal of Honour become no longer eligible." ---END OF PROPOSAL--- Could a player named FAILED QUORUM abuse the bug to get Medals of Honour? The rules don't state what kind of entity (if any) FAILED QUORUM is... Anyways, I initiate an Agoran Decision on who is to be awarded a Medal of Honour for June 2018. For this decision, the valid options are {Aris, ATMunn}. The vote collector is the Herald, and the voting method is instant-runoff. Quorum is 6. ~Corona On Mon, Jun 11, 2018 at 4:28 PM, Kerim Aydin <ke...@u.washington.edu> wrote: > > > FUN CONTINUATION: > > The rule also reads: > After a player is awarded a Medal of Honour, all > players who were previously eligible for a Medal of Honour become > no longer eligible. > > Since a "player" was not awarded the Medal, the previously-eligible > players are STILL eligible. > > Which means that ATMunn and Aris were in fact eligible when Corona > tried to start the Decision with the null set.
