So it now costs shinies to pend proposals, but nobody will have any
until 2017 (possibly later, if it turns out that the Secretary's powers
to award shinies are buggy; the "if doing so is specified by a rule" is
fairly vague).
I can think of several ways out of this situation, but just in case
things go badly wrong, I think it would be prudent for Alexis to hold
onto eir dictatorship a little longer.

Assuming the remaining bits work, this could be eased by either
temporarily over-riding the mechanism or by immediately rewarding
everybody shinies this month (my preferred method).
We should probably also grant the promotor the ability to pend 1 or so
proposals a month without paying, to prevent complete dry spells
(especially once the economy gets more usages) and ease the concerns
voiced when the proposal was distributed.
