I am uncomfortable with the term '''consensus''' since it is not officially defined in the ruleset. Would it be equivalent to '''unaminous consent''' as defined in rule [[310]]?  I am concerned that some yahoo might try to dissent in order to deadlock the game. Perhaps a '''supermajority''' would suffice, or an even more restrictive 9/10ths ''overwhelming majority''. I might just be paranoid though. --[[User:Simulacrum|Simulacrum]] 03:27, 15 November 2006 (EST)

  • I am uncomfortable with the term consensus since it is not officially defined in the ruleset. Would it be equivalent to unaminous consent as defined in rule 310? I am concerned that some yahoo might try to dissent in order to deadlock the game. Perhaps a supermajority would suffice, or an even more restrictive 9/10ths overwhelming majority. I might just be paranoid though. --Simulacrum 03:27, 15 November 2006 (EST)
