Okay, I've had an idea. There's a sequence of changes to the current economy that would end up with us still having land, but also adopting G.'s point-based model.

No, not yet, but you would be before the 14-day time limit expired, if you weren't planning to continue - I assumed that was what you meant when you said you "weren't even going to try to keep track of this". If that was wrong it's no problem, naturally. -twg ​​ ‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐

Actually, #12 and #20 (by Aris) are suitable different, that I'll address #12. Rule #6 is very precise. Counselors must "address each other" in a certain way and everyone must "address each other" with respect. "Us" (unlike "you") is not a form of address - in fact it's the opposite, it's spe

The problem with this methods is that people may wish to only change something, if a separate change goes with it.

I believe that this should have been ruled INVALID as the "us" references other Counselors and thus should have referenced them with appropriate respect.
