There's been a bit of arguing about whether Rule 11, The Rule of Assumed
Consent should be interpreted to mean that a voter who has ever expressed
any lack of consent to *anything* is exempt from having their consent
assumed under the rule (the literal interpretation), or whether it should
be implicit that only an objection to the proposal under consideration
counts (the original intent of the rule). Since this seems to be a
pointless argument of semantics, I declare that the situation shall be
resolved by appending the words 'to that proposal' to Rule 11, The Rule of
Assumed Consent, so that it now reads, in full:
----------
Rule 11, The Rule of Assumed Consent
A player shall be considered to have given their consent to a proposal
if the following are true:
The proposal was suggested more then 72 hours ago, and they haven't
explicitly expressed a lack of consent to that proposal. ----------
Your benevolent Emperor
