     Is this the future of TPP governance in Atlasia?

Spamage's votes denied though his vote was cast 10 minutes before the deadline.  This does alter the election results.

No, no it was not. Voting booth opened at 08:04:47 pm, closed 72 hours later. Spamage casts his vote at 08:49:11 pm. He's past the deadline. Nothing ambiguous about it. I obviously have no desire (I like higher turnout) to disallow his vote but it's completely clear cut. JCL's math does not add up.

     I think the confusion is that you defined the period of the election in Standard Time when we are now in Daylight Savings. I thought it was ending at 5 PM my time, not 4 PM.

Atlasia doesn't use Daylight Savings Time. We even passed a resolution on the matter in the Senate as I recall.

     WTF. Where did that idea come from? Did they pack the Senate with Arizonans or something?

Fritz. It passed unanimously and was signed by President Duke.

Thep roblem is that time can change during the election if there is a special or a vote in the Senate and cause all kinds of hell. We don't have to worry about energy usage and DST is lame anyway, so yeah.

     I would like to go on the record as opposing this policy. That is all.

     Has anyone else ever used that calendar?
