I open the voting on this bill. 96 hours from the time stamp on this post. Please indicate your support, opposition or your wish to abstain.

Aye - [Elwynn] [Straylight]
Nay - [Brookshire] [Yardistan]

[Leo Fenrir]

Elwynn votes AYE

[Malliki Tosha]

Brookshire Nay (see the Front Gate).

[Käthbad jënRöijanin]

Straylight votes AYE

[Gman Russell]

Yardistan votes NAY.

[Käthbad jënRöijanin]

hmmm, now what?

[Allot]

Kildare's turn.

[Jonas]

Errr... I think my fellow Kildarians wanted to make these documents public.
So: Aye.

[Malliki Tosha]

Kildare is barred from voting in this poll. They did not have a Dutch at the beginning of the voting. Goldshire is also, for what it's worth, barred. Any grievance against this decision can be addressed to the Landsraad as a whole.

Meh. Do I care?

[Malliki Tosha]

You tell me.

[Jonas]

You tell me.

That I haven't rebelled should be a obvious sign that I don't.



We all know there will be opened a new voting topic if this doesn't get passed.

[Käthbad jënRöijanin]

MY COMMENT OF "NOW WHAT?" WAS IN REFERENCE TO THE FACT THAT I THOUGHT IT HAD BEEN 96 HOURS SINCE THE MATTER WAS OPENED FOR VOTING, BUT NOW REALIZE I MISCOUNTED THAT...

MY APOLOGIES

[Malliki Tosha]

No problems.

[Leo Fenrir]

Well I can see a small problem with this... If Kildare's vote isn't counted then the next vote will include Goldshire, which will vote with Brookshire, and there will be a tie... So how do we break ties?

[Harvey Steffke]

Restructure the bill's specifics towards something so that more than half the duchies support it? Brookshire has stated in the Front Gate that there are several conditions that they are willing to accept that do not fundamentally destroy the bill.

[Allot]

I assume that since Maliki Tosha's name has vanished from this forum that he is no longer officially Praetor. I may be wrong. Regardless:

This bill is officially closed, with all dukes who were allowed to vote having voted.

The vote stands tied at 2 for - 2 against.

This bill is therefore deferred back the Front Gate until such a time as another compromise is reached.
