Rule #10: Points to the masses

All good leaders give to the people and of course our "Baron(ess) of all Nomiblog" would be no different.

I propose that for each point awarded to the masses of Nomiblog for successfully having a bill made into a rule the elected Baron(ess) will award an additional point to the creator of the bill. This point being deducted from the Baron(ess) own point total.

If the baron(ess) passes a bill that makes it to law they are awarded the standard 1 point for doing so.

Yes. I may change my mind (and my vote) in a few days, but for now at least, I am impressed by this bill's spunk. I vote for it.

(I also like that this bill was put forward without us knowing yet whether points are a good or bad thing to have)

Yes - I of course vote yes for my wonderful bill. Golf sucks so points must of course be good.

I suspect that this may be just be a typo but nonetheless I would like some clarification concerning the first line of this bill. Specifically the part: "awarded to a the masses".

Good point. I'd assumed it was a typo, and just didn't worry about it.

I read it to mean that whenever a rule gets passed, an additional point was stolen from the current Baron. This would be in addition to the normal one point awarded (by the cosmos) to the person who proposed the law.

Hopefully master of the small and pointless will clarify if he meant something different from that interpretation.

I think you guys are seeing things? This post has never had an extra "a" in it. I must admit however that I blacked out earlier today and one of my other personalities is a 6th grade grammar teacher??

Yes
I think this is a great use of "points"

Yeessss

(you feel compelled to count this as a yes vote, even though it is spelled very badly.)
