Voting results for Proposals 6648 - 6668:
[This notice resolves the Agoran decisions of whether to adopt the
following proposals. For each decision, the options available to
Agora are ADOPTED (*), REJECTED (x), and FAILED QUORUM (!).]
[Exception: I'm pretty sure "6653" wasn't actually a proposal -
did the Promotor ever respond to the CoE? - but if it was, then its
voting period was extended for lack of quorum, so I vote 1xAGAINST
and resolve it as failing.]

Amend Rule 1367 (Degrees) in the following ways:
Change the text reading:

for each
degree e held at that time (the high limit is so as to allow
a player to cast votes for different titles and ensure that
an inappropriate title is not awarded).
to read:
- Each player's voting limit on the decision is one.
Add the following text to the bulleted list:
- Rules to the contrary notwithstanding, the outcome of the
decision is the highest degree such that more than half of the
valid votes selected that degree or a lower degree. If no such
degree exists, the outcome is FAILING GRADE.

Title: Proposal Power Pilfering Program
Author: coppro
AI: 3.0
II: 1
Chamber: Purple
Amend rule 106 (Adopting Proposals) by replacing:
When creating proposals, the person who creates them SHOULD
ensure that the proposal outlines changes to be made to Agora,
such as enacting, repealing, or amending rules, or making other
explicit changes to the gamestate. When a proposal that includes
such explicit changes takes effect, those changes are applied to

When creating proposals, the person who creates them SHOULD
ensure that the proposal outlines changes to be made to Agora,
such as enacting, repealing, or amending rules, or making other
explicit changes to the gamestate. When a proposal that includes
such explicit changes takes effect, it applies those changes to
the gamestate. If the proposal cannot make some such changes, this
does not preclude the other changes from taking place.

Title: Fix Winning and Losing Conditions
Author: Murphy
AI: 2.0
II: 1
Chamber: Green
Amend Rule 2186 (Victory) to read:
Winning Conditions and Losing Conditions are conditions defined
as such by the rules. If such a condition is defined by the
rules as being satisfied when an event occurs (as opposed to
being satisfied while certain other conditions hold), then it
thereafter continues to be satisfied until the rules explicitly
say otherwise.
When one or more persons satisfy at least one Winning Condition
and do not satisfy any Losing Conditions, all such persons win
the game. The game CANNOT be won in any other way, rules to the
contrary notwithstanding.
Each Winning Condition should (if needed) specify a cleanup
procedure to prevent an arbitrary number of wins arising from
essentially the same conditions. When one or more persons win
the game:
a) For each Winning Condition satisfied by at least one of
those persons, its cleanup procedure (if any) occurs.
b) Each of those persons ceases to satisfy any Winning
Conditions.
A win announcement is a factually correct announcement
explicitly labeled as a win announcement and/or clearly stating
that one or more persons win the game.
