Works for me. It's much nicer to have an informal system that works --
as long as it is possible to tell when the system is being subverted.
Presumably this is a four-state vote:
+1 approve
0 cannot decide
-1 disapprove
-- no opinion
Anyone not emailing is deemed to have cast a -- vote all of which are
automatically discarded. Votes such as +100 will presumably be
renormalized to +1.
