Wouldn't that mean that appeals are always judged by a panel biased against the 
original judgement?
 
I don't like that for several reasons:
- generally, designing bias into judge selection doesn't rhyme with my real 
likfe understanding of justice as a neutral decision maker
- seems to make it harder to block scams as the scamsters will be likely to 
judge appeals doubting the success of their actions
- would lead to many judgements being overturned, reducing stability and 
predictability of judgements and a lot of flip-flopping about

Proposal:  Appeal of appeals
(AI = 2, co-author = scshunt)

Amend Rule 1868 (Judge Assignment Generally) by appending this text to
the last paragraph:

      For appeal cases, if possible, e SHALL assign a panel maximizing
      the number of members who have favored it and minimizing the
      number who have disfavored it.
