Proposal: Staying Undecided [Trivial]

Since I couldn't decide who I'd conspire with to pull off this loophole, I decided to call attention to it and get it closed instead. Basically, this'll keep a group of Maverick Lords from simultaneously killing their parties, starting a new one, and getting a whole bunch of unclaimed Percent.

If there exists a sentence in the rule Supporters reading

If there was no previous Speaker, then the Percent is equal to 100 minus the sum total of all existing Parties Percent values.


then reword it as follows:

If there was no previous Speaker, then the Percent is equal to either 100 minus the sum total of all existing Parties Percent values or the Percent value of the Party with the highest Percent, whichever is smaller.


In other words, if the Fred Party has 20% and the Sandwich Party has 25%, then I can only get 25% by starting a new Party, as opposed to the ridiculous 55% I'd get with the loophole.
