Proposal: Unificaion of Vote Rules [Trivial]

In the Alliances rule, change

Warlords who are not in an alliance are not considered Warlords for rules which do not have the word “Alliances” in the name.

to

Warlords who are not in an Alliance are not considered Warlords for rules which do not have the word “Alliance”, or any inflection of it, in the name.

Rename the Joining Alliances rule to Alliance Requests, and rewrite it so it reads:

All Alliance Requests shall be listed in this rule and their definition must explicit the consequences of their Enactment and Failure. They are processed in the same way as Proposals are, except:
* Only Warlords in the named Alliance may cast votes on the Request. If a Warlord leaves the Alliance, their Vote no longer counts;
* A vote of DEFERENTIAL defers to the Alliance Leader's vote instead of the High Lord’s. The Leader himself cannot cast a vote of DEFERENTIAL. If there is no Leader, a vote of DEFERENTIAL counts as an explicit vote of abstention;
* The power of VETO may be performed only by the Leader, not by the High Lord, and instantly denies the request.
* Only Warlords in the named Alliance are counted when tallying Quorum, and only them may Enact or Fail the Request.
* Only the oldest pending Request of each Alliance may be tallied for Enactment or Failure. Pending Alliance Requests don’t block the tallying of pending Proposals and vice-versa.
* An Alliance Request definition, under this rule, may change other conditions of the Voting process.

At any time a Warlord may request to join an Alliance by posting an entry which begins with the paragraph “Alliance Join Request: [Alliance Name]”.
Alliance Join Requests are subject to Enactment or Failure as follow:
* If all conditions to Enactment are met, any Warlord in the Alliance may add the requesting Warlord to the Alliance. If the joining Warlord was already in an Alliance, he loses 10 Reputation and all other members of his former Alliance lose 5.
* If it failed, then the Request is considered Denied, and the requesting Warlord loses 10 Reputation.

If there is a Banishment rule, delete it and add to the end of the Alliance Requests rule:

At any time a Warlord may make request to Banish a member of the same Alliance, by posting an entry which begins with the paragraph “Alliance Banishment Request: [Alliance Name], [Target Warlord Name]".
Alliance Banishment Requests are subject to Enactment or Failure as follow:
* If all conditions to Enactment are met, any Warlord in the Alliance may replace the target Warlord's Alliance with "Exile". The target Warlord loses 20 Reputation and all members of the Alliance lose 10.
* If it failed, then the Request is considered Denied, and the requesting Warlord loses 10 Reputation.

The Admin enacting this Proposal shall rename all Alliance Requests that are pending when it passes to make them comply with the new Request naming rules.
