All the same, it should also be limited somehow. Either with a limit on the number of times it can be used, or maybe a proposal would jump back to the top of queue if it had (say) twice as many approvals as the next.
As for impeachment/removal -- I don't agree with putting it in the hands of delegates alone like Tinhampton proposes. Making a removal just like a a regular SC proposal, needing delegate approvals then a vote, would be a fair way to do it. Although, should removal proposals be subject to re-ordering of the queue? That could cause some drama.
Agreed that the impeachment should just be a normal SC resolution. If it does become an issue, it can go to Tin's version, but simplicity is best. The WA SecGen isn't representing delegates, it is representing WA members.
Re limit on proposal reordering, not convinced on adding a limit to the number of times that they can reorder it. If the WA isn't happy with what they do, they can impeach and replace them. If it becomes a real issue for the game yet the players don't want to remove them, then limits should be looked at, but otherwise, simplicity is better.
Although, should they be able to reorder a proposal for their impeachment? On one hand, the straightforward answer is 'no', but on the other POV, it's kinda NS style for the WA SecGen to desperately cling to power for as long as possible before they're inevitably removed from office. I don't have any strong feelings either way.
