Draft III: Intelligent Dependent Action reporting, AI-2. [Since the fix is about reporting, not the count, keeps the current method of first/second class vote counting and eligibility, just changes the tally report requirements for SUPPORT. Slightly ugly in the Rule, but prettier in the execution, so there ya go.]
----------------------------------------------------------------- Amend Rule 1728 (Dependent Actions) by replacing: (b) The available options are SUPPORT and OBJECT. with: (b) The available options are a subset of SUPPORT and OBJECT, as defined by the specific method of dependent action. Amend Rule 2124 (Methods of Dependent Actions) to read: The following methods of dependent actions are defined: (a) With N Supporters. For this method, the support index is N+1 and the available option is SUPPORT. "With Support" is synonymous with "With 1 Supporter". To resolve the decision, the tally of votes need only include a count of up to N valid ballots other than the initiator's if the initiator's implicit support is a valid ballot, or N+1 valid ballots if it is not, even if there are more. (b) Without N Objections. For this method, the objection index is N and the available option is OBJECT. "Without Objection" is synonymous with "Without 1 Objection". A tally of votes MUST include all valid ballots up to a count of N to resolve the decision, but needn't include more. (c) With N Agoran Consent. For this method, the majority index is N and the available options are SUPPORT and OBJECT. "With Agoran Consent" is synonymous with "With 1/2 Agoran Consent". A tally of votes must include all valid ballots. -----------------------------------------------------------------------
