This proposal isn’t mine, but it’s going to vote in two hours, so why not?

[Wallenburg]

This is certainly very important business. We're asking ourselves the big questions here.

[Refuge Isle]

Now at vote

[Meslokia]

Against because i'm a born hater

[The Ice States]

I quite like this, and it's always nice to see new authors getting involved in the WA.

[Cyptopir]

Full support, and it's so perfect that the voting for it began on February 29th, at least in my time zone (EST).

[Sporaltryus]

Against this current draft. I’d have supported the idea, but it’s too late for that now.

[Outer Sparta]

Looks like a fun premise and it even got to vote on February 29.

[Bhang Bhang Duc]

Once in four years is not rare.

Basically this is a load of old tosh.

[Bormiar]

It looks like this snuck up on everyone.

I'm for. The proposal's cute and fun.

Edit: Actually, against.

[Fishelle]

This feels INCREDIBLY ChatGPT written...
AGAINST!

[Cyptopir]

AGAINST!

Most probably but it's funny so it gets a pass from me.

[Osmos]

Yeah, also a new author, definitely support

[Balkinour]

Finally a serious matter of security.

[Nu Elysium]

For.
Not enough whimsy around here.

[The Ice States]

AGAINST!

This would be quite well-written for a Chatgpt proposal; that said four of five AI detectors do seem to agree. I've tentatively withdrawn my vote; I do hope that the author going forward can write for themselves instead of relying on AI.

Don't support because it seems like it was AI Generated.

Once in four years is not rare.

However, rareness is pretty relative, so I wouldn't say it's not rare, it just depends on how you look at it.

Halley’s Comet - comes around once every 75 - 76 years. That’s rare. Supernova in our Milky Way galaxy - not one been seen for more than 400 years. Even rarer.

Something that happens every four years. Not rare at all.

Again, this is perspective. Of course there is stuff much rarer than a leap day.

However, there is stuff much less rare as well. Compared to a single millisecond, 4 years starts to look rare.
All I'm saying is that I am not going to say it's not rare because it's all subjective and relative anyways.

The average human will only see a leap day happen 18 times in their life. That's not common, to at least in the perspective of a human's life.

[Numina]

Our great nation supports Whimsey and Joy, no matter what

[Nu Elysium]

AGAINST!

in that case, i retract my vote.

[Comfed]

Wow, it's rare compared to a millisecond? Well, I don't know about the rest of you, but I had never considered that angle before. Time to vote in favour.

Also, this might be the first leap day to span in a time where you can make declarations on NS.

[Appalachian Republic]

Voted for the resolution; why?
Its Leap Day, it only comes around once every four years so it should be celebrated.
