EXEC REPORTS
Dez - Had weekend, event happened. Dez killed a man in front of james, lied, and apparently was trustworthy enough James - Lied, didn't lie, didn't matter Kushal - spent most of weekend trying to get database to work. Also, got yelled at by a scrabble-bot Sawyer - got lost in an old game Oliver (not Liam ) - had a weekend, was spent doing secret things, did a fade transition to Oliver - had a weekend, pretended to be liam, called the census bureau
COMMITTEE REPORTS
Tim - The news in limericks comm - Republicans rose to condemn How Biden continues to hem. It’s wrong to support Reshaping the court, They argue, unless it’s by them. Henry - Practical* Science* Solutions* - a common problem in earth science disciplines, only 1 planet to do experiments on. Several smaller bodies (i.e. titan) - if we split earth into 50 smaller planets, it would be more efficient Tim- ad-hoc woke chamber of commerce- unspecified federal holiday prevents business today
OLD BUSINESS
Oliver had the thing, who wants it now? Henry wants it is his fault that we're never getting the spirit of the thing back unless you comb the potomac Is his fault dez was forced to give the thing TIM, DOTH WE HAVE ELDERLY BUSINESS? Yes! from 10/5: Motion to banish pathological functions in analysis to the shadow realm: just that we were gonna define it but it's part of a future standing rule maybe Sam - if the definition were in effect, could tim tell us? Tim- it's enactment is not announced when it goes into effect, so whatever that means. Kushal - with sam, we don't table it, instead see what happens Liam - wants to be in minutes On an unrelated note to that, nobody wants to answer what a pathological function is So we're voting on the tabling now: Passed, been tabled
NEW BUSINESS
Liam - mtn to make the KGB constitutional originalism comm - to interpret the KGBylaws and constitution as the founding fathers intended. Futhermore, I consider that all versions of Carthage must be destroyed Sam - mtn to amend the motion to replace "originalism" w/ "strict constructionalism" Unfriendly, pursued - Discussion on Sam's motion: Liam - anyone voting for this is traitor to constitution Moving to vote, fails Moving back to main motion Henry - motion to "Futhermore, I consider that all versions of Carthage must be destroyed" to the purpose of this comittee Liam - unfriendly, but would be supportive of this clause being added into the bylaws James - all cities named carthage? - yes, apply salt as necessary Woody - motion to change "Carthage" to "all versions of Carthage" Liam - while this comm is unopposed to carthage increasing its yearly salt intake, I don't want in my comm description Passed, been changed, Liam has lost control of motion Oliver notes meeting should take place via nintendo Passed, moving to auction: Auctioned to Oliver for a dollar, chaired by any baron James - motion to create a new standing rule such that _ is instead passed __ by individuals only Which is actually: [ James's table discussion rule] - "Motion to create a standing rule such that any tabled person can motion to meet on any tabled motion. The motion is then untabled, but is instead passed only if approved the appropriate percentage of tabled individuals instead of all individuals." SamSkim - what happens when no tabled individuals? - Wouldn't come into effect, no worries Tim - what if someone became untabled during the motion but was untabled only after their motion was created In such a case, the chair would look favorably on non-tyrannically resolving it Yet apparently the tabling of an individual is not privlidged Sam - microphone intercourse Henry - lots of potential for good puns if people read the powdermage trilogy apparently Liam changes name to James's table discussion rule, ruled friendly Passed, now done Kevin - motion to rename dhreed hall to carthage Oliver- so how do we destroy Carthage then? That's for comm to figure out Paaassed? Kate - Motion to make a delayed standing rule that would enact on Mon Oct 26th at 5:57 pm that upvote and downvote emojis cannot be repeats of any emojis used in the previous 3 votes. If a repeat emoji is used, any votes made with that emoji are discounted Tim - in favor in spirit, but want the last line to be changed to not disenfranchise people for reason of pot of dhreed Oliver - motion to amend "any votes with that emoji are discounted" to banish "the chair to the shadow realm" Liam Motions to amend that, but change the last part to "will be ejected from the meeting" but Oliver got no seconds so we need to go back and make an actual amendment Liam - strike "any votes made with that emoji are discounted" and replace with "The chair is ejected from the meeting and a new chair is selected in accordance to KGB bylaws" On that discussion: Kate - it's a bad idea, we only have so many people in the line of succession, this seems like disaster Worth noting: if this occurs twice, the meeting will implode (only 5 exec members attending meeting) After much discussion, the amendment is retracted Kate give a proposal: "Append to motion that, in the case of a repeat emoji resulting in discounted votes, the votes given to the next most similar emoji to it will instead be counted by vote of the general body" Quote dez: "that whole amendment is dilatory as all fuck" James - strike "any votes made with that emoji are discounted" and replace with "The rules are suspended, the chair is ejected from the meeting and a new chair is selected in accordance to KGB bylaws. This rule can only be enacted once per meeting" apparently amending amendments isn't okay, so we'll just go to the amendment and come back later Good god we're so lost in this motion James's amendment passed! Liam - -strike "This rule can only be enacted once per meeting" -replace "The chair is ejected from the meeting" with "The chair is declared vacant" Liam's amendment passed Back to original motion (Motion to make a delayed standing rule that would enact on Mon Oct 26th at 5:57 pm that upvote and downvote emojis cannot be repeats of any emojis used in the previous 3 votes. If a repeat emoji is used, The rules are suspended, The chair is declared vacant and a new chair is selected in accordance to KGB bylaws. PASSED Apparently dez interprets that as not reusing the specific "repeat" emoji, but this is constitutionally originally condemning
