I had no idea that Agora was so indecisive :). I honestly think I would 
prefer the last one - but it sounds like it might make the Assessor's 
life not super fun.

Yes it allows for some after-the-voting-period manipulations!


Just some random history - we've used *all* of the following at different
times:

- voting strength set at the beginning of voting period.
- voting strength set at the end of voting period.
- voting strength set when the ballot is cast.
- voting strength set when decision is assessed (current method).
- voting strength set at the beginning of the week in which the proposal
  is distributed.
- each unit of voting strength is a separate ballot, you have to
  specify how many you cast and can do some at different times

Thanks for doing this! Couple things I noted:

- in P8184 you use "accepted" instead of "adopted".

- My voting strength is 4 due to being PM.

- by my count, these proposals were distributed June 12 05:58:59 UTC, voting
period ended June 19, and the assessor was first "late" (time limit
for assessing expired) a week later on June 26.  It won't be 14 days late
until July 10, and D. Margaux still holds the office.  So by R2160(4), you
have to either give two days notice or wait until Jul 10 05:58:59 UTC
before deputising (not much difference between the two options at this
point!)

[Intentionally NTTPF. This is a draft assessment of Proposals 8180-8187. 
I'm posting this to agora-discussion first so that (a) someone else can 
steal this if they want to be Assessor, and (b) to get any errors caught 
before this gets submitted. I recognize that Assessor is probably not 
the best first office for a new player; but if nobody else wants the 
post, I'm okay with taking it for a little while]



I deputise for Assessor to perform the following actions:


I hereby resolve the Agoran decisions to adopt the below proposals. Each 
player has voting strength 3 unless otherwise noted.





This is the latest Referee's report: 
https://mailman.agoranomic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/private/agora-official/2019-June/012933.html. 
This is presumed to be accurate, because, as the report notes, nothing 
can actually happen with Blots right now.


Revisions from D. Margaux's attempted resolution:

- Pursuant to H. Judge Falisfian's informal comments on CFJ 3751, Murphy 
and omd are counted as voters on all decisions. This is expected to 
become precedent soon.


- CoE 0 is accepted; the decision on 8185 is amended to reflect this.

- CoE 1 is accepted; all decisions are amended to reflect this.

- twg's inextricable votes are changed to PRESENT, pursuant to Rule 2127/11:


A conditional vote on an Agoran decision is a vote which indicates
a vote based on some condition(s). A conditional vote is evaluated
at the end of the voting period and, rules to the contrary
notwithstanding, is clearly specified if and only if the value of
the condition(s) is/are determinate at the end of the voting
period. If the conditional is clearly specified, and evaluates to
a valid vote, it is counted as that vote; otherwise, it is counted
as PRESENT.
