gollark: Should I also lower the time limit on bee polls?
gollark: How's that?
gollark: Hold on.
gollark: How about:Create a new section "Bees" %bees.Create a rule "Bee utilization part 1" (%bees-1) in %bees:> If bees are deployed, they may be used against any player, if a Bee Poll indicating this target player is passed. The deployment status of bees is to be considered part of the Game State. If bees are used on a player they lose 1 point. Bees are not considered a resource and if they are deployed an unlimited amount of bee-related actions may be taken.Create a rule "Bee Poll" (%bee-poll) in %polls:> A Bee Poll is required to authorize bees to perform actions, as described in %bees. The default allowed reactions for a Bee Poll are 👍 (representing a vote for) and 👎 (representing a vote against). Bee Polls may be ended if they have existed for 12 hours, rather than the usual 24. When a Bee Poll ends, if there are more votes for the Bee Poll than against it, the Bee Poll passes. Players are permitted to use multiple reactions on a Bee Poll.
gollark: What? I'm going to just cancel the existing proposal and make one creating the bee section and bee rules section 1.
