The motion
To add a new rule
A player who voluntarily forfeits the game may immediately cast one vote on any pending proposal, without waiting for their turn. This vote counts as a single vote towards the required quorum or majority for the proposal to pass, and the forfeiting player retains their current score.

Adding this rule allows a forfeiting player to influence outcomes without missing turns, maintaining fairness and engagement.

Rule 203 requires defeated proposers to lose 10 points, but no rule awards or deducts points beyond this for adoption or defeat, so no score changes occur. No rules were amended or repealed, so no ruleset operations are needed. The next player is Shannon per the turn order, and no player has won as no one reached 100 points.
