Proposal: Time Out Revision

Here's a different method of dealing with the possible swamp of new proposals, since previous attempts (Slow Motion, Imperial Ceiling) have been voted down

I propose to completely rewrite Rule 7 - Time Out to read:

"If a proposal has been pending for longer than 48 hours, an admin may enact it if greater than half of the current votes on it are FOR; otherwise, he/she may fail it. If the emperor has not yet cast a vote, all imperial votes are ignored."

In addition to making the tide of proposals more manageable, this law would, in effect, allow players to abstain (by not voting), and would also eliminate all possible controversy from improper inactivity fines.
