From Nomicapolis

Proposed by Applejuicefool 22:26, 12 April 2006 (PDT).
1. In order for a proposal to be "proposed in the proper way" and thus satisfy rule 104/105, it must contain the following elements:
- a) The correct number; i.e. the next number in the sequence.
- b) Verbiage that creates an actual or potential change to Nomicapolis play.
- c) The user name of the proposer. This should follow the proposal number and precede the text of the proposal in the format used in the proposal of this rule.
- d) Each numbered rule change proposal must have its own Nomicapolis article page and discussion page with the proposal number as the title of the page.
2. If a player believes that a rule was not proposed in the proper way, and/or was proposed in an improper way, he should create a section in the discussion page for that rule headed "Improper Proposal". Following the header, the player should state his reasons why he believes the proposal is not proper. Players may then vote on whether the proposal is proper.
- a) A claim of improper proposal must be made before the proposal is declared to have passed or failed.
- b) The rules for voting on claims of improper proposal and determining whether the claim passes or fails shall be the same as the rules for voting on and determining whether mutable rule changes pass or fail at the time the claim is made.
- c) If a claim of improper proposal passes, then the proposed rule is discarded without completion of a proposal vote. The proposer loses points as if his proposal had been voted down. If the claim fails, the vote on the proposal continues as usual.
- d) When a claim of improper proposal passes or fails, the claimant and voters in the claim action gain or lose half as many points as they would have had the claim been a proposal vote with a number equal to the proposal number of the proposal in question.
- e) A player may not make a claim of improper proposal against a proposal he/she originated.
