It's not. That's why I didn't issue a humiliating public reminder for you.

 I hereby vote on the referenced proposals in a conditional
 manner, with the condition being, if the Assessor can reasonably
 determine what I meant to vote on and what option, I vote in
 that manner.

Curse you for voting in a manner that will force me to implement
conditional votes properly in my scripts.

 If elected, I promise to select judges following the rules guidelines

Actually, if Elected, I promise, if expressions of interest are
made, to create a sort of game like this, which I informally would 
agree to abide by:

1.  Writs are a currency limited to players (reference to a 
specific past currency rule, as currencies are repealed).

2.  There's a Writ Pool.  When started, there are N writs in the
pool, where N is the number of players.

3.  A player CAN take a writ from the writ pool if e has not done
so in the past (month/30 days).  (opt-in; everyone can grab one
in plenty of time then get extas a month later).

4.  When a new player arrives, I SHALL offer em a Writ in a 
timely manner.  If e accepts, I'll create one and give it to em;
otherwise I'll create one in the pool.

5.  Whenever there's a CFJ to be assigned, it's assigned to
players with probability proportional to the number of writs
they have.

6.  I can generally fiddle with writs to match the spirit of 
this contest.

I thank my Honorable Opponent for eir fairly-given support.

Let me say that I intend to run a positive campaign; in particular, 
I shall not fearmongor nor claim that my opponent's system is illegal,
arbitrary, or otherwise the End of the World.  Rather I freely 
accept eir method as one of many reasonable possibilities, and simply 
suggest that my own stated intentions are bit more Interesting, 
Satisfying, and/or Fun.
