Laughable or not, I feel the request should still be tabled by the GM if it's plausible and palpable within the letter of the rules. Some allow less than a DIAS to be voted for, and thats fine as long as it's within HRs and the person being voted out doesn't vote against it. But even if someone were to suggest a vote for solo to the one center wonder, laughable yes...but what does it hurt to table the proposal? Someones bound to vote it down even if the board leader does not. It won't slow the game down any, and even if it does...anything worth a laugh is worth its time, isn't it? I don't know...I can't think of any examples so outlandish and yet within the parameters of standard rules that a GM should feel compelled to 'reject'. Dave Watson PS: My HRs state that any game proposals submitted are required to be voted YES to by the submitTER(if its a secret proposal through the GM). This seems to cut down a heckuva lot of the 'insincere' proposals.:) ------------------------ Yahoo!
