Minimum quorum required for making changes to the Online Games Rules.
Кто к нам с пером придёт, тот от пера и погибнет!:smile51:
2 vbn: (or someone else from the moderators)
Right now, there are a lot of topics and polls on the forum about changes to the rules, and it's overwhelming. Even if changes are introduced, there's a high probability of missing them. Please create another topic that contains these very changes, and make sure that it only contains the CHANGES, and all other posts are deleted!
If someone has an idea, they immediately create topics: a poll, a discussion, a vote, a tournament... You can get lost in the section. No offense.
The changes should be in the topic with the rules, written out again in separate posts. That's how it is now, and vbn is doing it, let him continue to do it, and "someone" from the moderators shouldn't be trusted with everything. :)
P.S. to Pasha and Pit: right now, a lot of "important" topics have suddenly appeared at the top of the section. They lose their importance because of this, in my opinion. (we won't hold a vote on this, okay? :D)
The changes should be made in the thread with the rules and reiterated in separate posts. That's how it is now, and vbn is handling it, so let him continue to do so, and it's not necessary to entrust everything to "someone" from the moderators.
vbn can now only edit his own posts...
Well, then, I guess that's Pete's prerogative now; no one else could handle it better.
Regarding the topic: let it be 2/3 of those who voted; anyway, everyone is voting now, and they're used to it. I don't see any dependence on the number of games played for the resource, no matter how hard I try.
You need to be very careful with amendments to the rules. Some things would really make sense to change. But each amendment needs to be seriously discussed and verified.
And after an amendment has been adopted, it must be brought to the attention of all players. Perhaps in the first post of the season?
1. Mandatory discussion.
Proposed changes to the rules are discussed in a corresponding forum topic before the voting begins.
2. Voting timeline.
Voting opens in a separate topic no earlier than one month after the discussion starts and lasts for 45 days.
3. Eligibility to vote.
Players who have played at least ... games in tournaments on HeroesWorld by the time the voting ends may participate in the voting (my suggested number here is 5).
3. Voting procedure.
A participant votes by selecting "for", "against", or "abstained" and can change their choice before the voting ends.
4. Tallying results.
The proposed change is incorporated into the rules if the number of voting participants is at least 50% of the players who played on HeroesWorld in the previous season, and the number of "for" votes is at least 2/3 of the voting participants.
And 2/3 or 3/4 of what? If it's based on the number of votes, I'm against it, but if it's based on the total number of active players (we need to think about this), then I'm for it. I think 10 games is a reasonable threshold.
Yes, based on the number of votes.
Active players may be very active, or not so much, so it should be based on the number of votes.

There are topics where preliminary discussions with a Poll take place.
It was the same with Gosha (Igor initiated), and with Restam (Kostya initiated).
It is better to propose amendments to the rules when the Poll has already shown that making changes to the Rules is possible and promising.
P.S. I suggest limiting the sessions to once a year to avoid anarchy.
Options 3 and 7. Question for the speakers: how often will parliamentary debates be held (once a year, once a month...)? Or every time someone decides to transform their phobias into ideas about changing the rules?

Here's another option:
Anyone can post (create) a topic with a poll about the changes they consider necessary.
Then, if there is a positive vote (it can be a simple majority, or something else), the issue is raised for a vote, and it is held.
Based on the results, a decision is made to make changes or leave the original rules.
Here's a possible approach:
Anyone can create a thread with a poll about the changes they believe are necessary.
Then, if the poll receives a positive outcome (a simple majority, or some other method), the issue is put to a vote.
Based on the results, a decision is made to either implement the changes or keep the original rules.
