 I change my vote on 6351 to AGAINST, for the same reason.
 I retract my vote on 6351. I vote AGAINST 6351.

This missed the end of the voting period by a few hours.  (6351 is
going to fail anyway; resolution coming up shortly.)

 If this was a valid vote, I retract it, and vote AGAINST instead.

If it was not a valid vote, does this read to simply vote AGAINST or
not do anything?

Plus you provided a shortened alternative (G.) so your nickname
selection would be in compliance with this rule anyway. It wasn't

I will reject the shortened alternative before this passes.  But there's
a rather more substantial bug; by legislating nicknames, it makes them
the official name, so officer's reports are inaccurate without them.  If 
I choose a new long nick (think *truly* long), and REFUSE to pick a short 
alternative, I will *happily* take the 5-blot penalty in return for seeing 
officers be required to reproduce the full nickname or be dinged for not 
producing a full report.  The way it is now, with no legislation and 
flexible judicial guidance, coppro is free to use Goethe in eir report 
with nothing but minor but ineffectual annoyance from me.  Do you really 
want to give me or any player the ability to formally declare such 
expediencies to be inaccurate?

The rule uses SHOULD not SHALL. Officers are only encouraged to use
the official nickname, not required to do so.

Nice.  Punishment for no purpose.  Now *that's* treating Agora right
good forever.

I shall choose no official nickname whatsoever, refer to myself by a 
very long name, and let the officers sort it out however they want.

If your rule purports to stop that sort of thing it is certainly against
the R101 right of communication.

An attempt to regulate and punish the generally unregulatable strikes 
me as not being particularly good policy.
