Outside of straight-up scam proposals, we've talked many times before about having "eras", were the people at the top have an outsized influence for a while - the trick of course being not letting them use that power to hold onto power too long. I kind of like this particular emergent pattern of "whomever holds vote cards gets an outsized say in the flurry of proposals pended just before a reset". The timing isn't predictable and the voting strength resets before the associated proposal batch goes through. Maybe limiting scam potential, maybe not. Instead of an era, we get "who's got the most clout in this brief semi-unexpected revolutionary government". Might work nicely! I will say though, it gives the Promotor a particularly strong bit of control over the revolution... :). -G.
