I think there needs to be some kind of change so that an unwilling delegate
stop being one. As is, someone else would have to volunteer, since you can
only make the delegate *yourself* with Agoran consent. I don't like that
someone with a bunch of offices could burden someone else with all the
office work for 30 days, who'd be forced to go inactive if they can't
comply or can't get someone else to volunteer. Also what would happen if a
delegate "resigns"? I think it'd be a good idea to have it be defined, and
could fix this issue. Maybe throw in a clause about deputizing when there's
no delegate and an officer is on vacation, the deputizer becomes the new
delegate.
