I/we are open to alternate names, but that's the one I think works best at the moment. We're all still saying "Council" a lot, though, as that's what we'd been using for a while before.

But now the initials are GAS.
I vote in favor if GA Rules Council. GARC sounds nice.

I disagree. It is devoutly to be hoped that the members of the council do not take themselves too seriously; what better way to help this than by putting them in a body that opens them up to the epithet "GASbags?"

Given the apparently rejuvenated enthusiasm of the moderator team for contributing to the discussion, any chance of returning to the unanswered questions posed by Bananaistan and myself?

Just paged back over the past few pages to find what (I think) are the "unanswered questions" that you're referring to.

It's a fairly massive issue that so far as I can see hasn't previously been discussed at all in the course of this thread. I'd go so far as to say that if this is the aim of the Council, we need to start all over again from square one, because reaching proposal submitters who bypass the forum isn't something any forum regulars are going to have any experience at. Where did the idea that this was going to be a major council responsibility come from?
Gruenberg wrote:Kryozerkia wrote:Overruling is not allowed. It is one vote one member. The mods are subject to the same standard.
Yes, and there are many more mods than council members. As for the 2-3-1 ruling, as I pointed out the 2 mods could thereby overrule the council. And yes, let's say you were involved in a previous ruling, obviously. Having had answered absolutely none of my questions, I'll ask them again:
So a group of mods could overrule the Council? So a 2-3-1 split could be decided by 2 mods weighing in with the 2? So players have to recuse themselves if their proposals are up for debate, but moderators don't have to recuse themselves if their rulings are up for debate?
Gruenberg wrote:Kryozerkia wrote:This will be detailed out in a document for council members. Take a look at the Illegal Proposal thread. The ones that jump out to you - for example - would qualify as "obvious". Proposals that look legal on the surface would fall into the "grey" area.
What? That's a completely nonsense standard. Many of the proposals that "jump out" to moderators as being illegal are not, or are not illegal for the reasons they claim. Bananaistan once spent five months drafting a resolution which you then deleted after five hours, wrongly as it almost immediately turned out - presumably it "jumped out" to you at the time. If the moderators are still removing all of these resolutions, the Council appears to have no value.
