It now reads: In a timely fashion before the beginning of each month, the Speaker SHALL assign each prerogative to a different active player; first assigning prerogatives to active players bearing the Patent Title Minister without Portfolio (MwoPs); then (if there are more prerogatives than active MwoPs), assigning prerogatives to other active players. It seems like e still assigns them but no longer has to announce that he is assigning them. This goes back to the years-old I say I do, therefore I do debate; actions are defined as being by announcement (or by some other method, e.g. dependent actions, which boils down to by announcement at the end) precisely because that mechanism isn't accepted as being universally implicit. I think I once proposed something like: If the rules say a person CAN perform an action, but do not otherwise specify a mechanism, then e CAN perform it by announcement. but it was voted down. There's a judicial precedent (CFJ 1765) that X SHALL Y by announcement implies X CAN Y by announcement, but the mechanism is only implicit in the second part; it must be specified in the first part.

Wooble cast a conditional vote endorsing the first person to deputize to publish the Herald's report during the election period, or endorsing ais523 if no one has deputized to pusblish such a report. Noone deputized to publish such a report, so Wooble endorsed ais523, but e not vote.) The outcome selected by Agora is FAILED QUORUM. The Voting Period is hereby doubled. CoE: This is the Herald election, not the Registrar one. (Tiger's post to a-d is not sufficient; this post is self-ratifying if a formal CoE isn't submitted).
