Quote:b. The Prætor may not incite others to vote one way or another, or demand that votes be changed one way or another.c. The Prætor may not incite rebellion against the Kaiser in the Landsraad, under threat of impeachment.Doesnt section 3b basicly refute section 2c? Or does 3b mean that the praetor cant threaten to break the guys legs unless he votes the praetors way?and 3c is slightly redundant isnt it? You swear loyalty to the Kaiser when you join. Of course that hasn't stopped people before... *laughs*

It looks alright to me...Yardistan votes Yea (4). -Gryphon Avocatio- Lord Governor and Duke of all Yardistan - Minister of Research and Education, Shireroth - Shirerothian Elder - "Minsiter of Dance, Pants and Funny Walks" - SAVE THE KIWI!! - Lover of Llamas "You're intense and driven. That can lead to a lot of good things. It can also lead to high blood pressure and a closing of the arteries." -Mr. Mathews -- "I think that people who drive Hummers are clueless, and that they just have enough money to advertise it." -Peter Camejo -- "Skanky-Deutch-Ho-Bag!!" -Mike

[Zirandorthel]

No, they don't refute each other. Because 2c means that the Prætor is entitled to say "well, i support this act" and to say "i think such and such should be changed", and 3b means, like you say, that the Prætor cannot threaten or ask others to change their vote.And you think 3c is redundant?? Poor, naive Greg, I'd overthrow the Kaiser right now if I could ZirandorthelThe Golden DarknessBelde of the Far Reaches.Niirus Tinenetuwar"In order to find his equal, an Irishman is forced to talk to God."-Stephen Braveheart
