Voting Split
So I've heard some talk of unease about the 5-1 currently required, so I have a proposal to make. When dealing with matters where rules have already been established (ie overturning a rule), we go with 5-1 required to overturn. When dealing with an area where there are currently no rules, or a decision such as bringing in a GM (the details of exactly what topics would be what should probably be debated), we would use the 4-2 majority vote. I propose this, because in areas which we don't have rules set for, I think it is more important to get some rulings out there and this will likely prevent some of the delays we have seen so far when trying to reach a 5-1 decision for either accepting or rejecting a proposal.
