[Nomic] Imperial Decree #1

Since the consensus (with a lowercase c) appears to be that my appointment 
to Emperorhood is valid, I hereby decree, to resolve all ambiguities, that 
the current state of the rules, List of Voters, List of Handles and 
occupation of Ministry roles is as presently specified on the Nomic website 
(which is the state I believe it should have been in after my coup). In 
particular:

* There are nine people on the List of Voters, and it's the same nine as 
it's always been * Rule 3, List of Voters has been amended to specify that 
the list it defines is the List of Voters * There is currently no Law of 
Lizardmen * Rule 18, Imperious Emperor has been enacted, and specifically 
states that it takes precedence over Rule 2, Mutability of the Rules

I also declare my pseudonym to be 'Emperor Explicivist'. I encourage all my 
subjects to adopt pseudonyms as well.

I don't intend to abuse the position of Emperorhood; save for perhaps the 
occasional decree making fixes to the phrasing of rules, I shall mostly 
continue to make and vote on proposals like everyone else.
