Is there a penalty or some sort of bonus for including phonesex dialogue in a Proposal (so close to a double-entendre there:D)?šŸ˜‰ The sexier version **Achernar** suggestes is basically what Iā€™m thinking will work for now. That being, basically, ā€œrule 105 is hereby transmuted from immutable to mutableā€. As long as the language works. Itā€™s been a while since Iā€™ve done this sort of thing. ---

OK, the sexy version of Prop 303 has been added to the site. Iā€™ll be emailing it to the players with a request to vote shortly. Zev Steinhardt ---

Hey **zev** , do we need a unanimous decision for this to pass, or a simple majority, or a 2/3, or something involving a goat and a pair of pliers, or what? ---

BTW, a side question. If 303 passes, does that mean that according to Rule 108, Rule 105 becomes Rule 303? Rule 108 states (bolding mine) > [@](#): > > Each proposed rule-change shall be given a number for reference. The numbers shall begin with 301, and each rule-change proposed in the proper way shall receive the next successive integer, whether or not the proposal is adopted. If a rule is repealed and reenacted, it receives the number of the proposal to reenact it. **If a rule is amended or transmuted, it receives the number of the proposal to amend or transmute it.** If an amendment is amended or repealed, the entire rule of which it is a part receives the number of the proposal to amend or repeal the amendment.

I vote YES on Prop 303. No, Iā€™m not going to turn _that_ into sexiness. I am willing, however, to appropriately change Prop 304 (so far not yet brought forth by **Johnny Bravo** ) if anyone feels like a laugh. ---

The WD-40 would want to be part of a future Proposal, I think. Unless youā€™d like to suggest an amendment to Prop 303: ā€œā€¦but ā€¦ oh, this is so thick and rough.
