This bill is pretty straightforward

The constitution that the Supreme Court and senate uses is about a year and a half out of date, and more importantly is basically impossible to edit (I know because I've tried) this aims to make things easier.

I see no reason not to support it. I'll vote AYE.

This seems sensible and straightforward to me as well, so I concur Senator Talleyrand's opinion.

Doesn't the Wiki article for the Third Constitution get updated continuously?

It was last updated when Nix was still president.

Then why doesn't the AG just do his job and update it? Why do we need a new bill? I mean, I think it would obviously be great to have an updated constitution readily available as well, but... I guess I'm a little confused.

The format of the constitution, unlike the format of say, the senate rules, is very difficult to edit properly. It involves creating new pages for every amendment passed, linking them into the single page document, striking and unstriking various changed sections, linking various bolded and unbolded pieces of text to other wiki pages, and so on. It's also not particularly easy to read.

I motion for a final vote.

Senators have 24 hours to object. If no objection, I will open the vote.

This has enough votes to pass.
Senators have 24 hours to change their vote.

Treason, rebellion, wiki edits. I mean, it really screams out as belonging there.

So like we are going to ban people from ever holding an office in a fantasy game because of wiki edits? I realize the Sirnick thing and all that, but isn't just a little nuts?

You know you're not a member of the Senate anymore, right?
