I would remove the GM from the line of succession (or at least put him further down), since I kind of see the GM as not really a political office but a sort of meta game position.

I agree with the President here, great act, but the Game Moderator is more of a forum affairs position and not a serious political office. (Or, at least, shouldn't be.)

I propose the following amendment, simply to remove the GM and re-number them.

Hi there!

I was making the Wiki page for this, when I noticed the piece of legislation amended was repealed: https://uselectionatlas.org/AFEWIKI/index.php/Line_of_Succession_%28Amendment%29_Act

Perhaps you meant to amend this? https://uselectionatlas.org/AFEWIKI/index.php/Line_of_Succession_%28Amendment_No_2%29_Act

Just looking for clarification, doesn't really make sense to me. Wouldn't we now have two active pieces of legislation regarding the line of succession?
