Imperial Decree no. 314

[Erik Mortis]

1. I think I mis-understood how this was being done... What I get for posting with a gf distracting me...

2. It does say THE Kaiser not ANY or A kaiser... bending the rules.. Yes. But on a technicality it works.

3. Practicality would indicate that a Steward needs to be able to deal with decrees from long past Kaiser, when there is NO crowned Kaiser. If the Steward cannot deal with these issues, then we are trapped.

4. Precedent, under Steward Nicholas I, during the first Oustfest, the Steward, with no ruling/crowned Kaiser, made decrees which altered past decrees by Kaisers.

I recognize the shaky ground these arguments are, but in like of the current situation, and future ones, I believe it makes sense.

After further contemplation. and my own weird logic. I repeal my previous statements supporting this act. While technically legal, I will not support them. Nor will I condemn them. I make no statement.
