Although it's a laudable restriction, I'm uncomfortable with what looks like an attempt to slip in a rule in a mostly unrelated proposal (in this case, a restriction that always applies as part of a rule that almost entirely only applies on one date). (Possibly still reeling from that shock BlogNomic win; for the curious, the exploited rule in question was "The Anarchist with the highest RIOT score on June 1st 2010 has achieved victory. If multiple Anarchists are tied for the highest RIOT score then they have all achieved victory. If no-one has declared victory by 12 noon on June 1st 2010, then all Anarchists have achieved victory." If you don't know the loophole already, try to spot it!) -- ais523
