This sounds like co-op board voting to me.
It also, apparently, is used with stockholders and the UN Security Council.
Got anyone here that's on the UN Security Council?
Pretty cool except for the part where I was really terrified and now my knees are all dizzy.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Also, I hear math is gay.
Wait, was that on the Gay Agenda? The one that's posted in the Gay Lobby?
I actually brought that up in class, and my prof was quite intrigued that a community would seriously discuss that type of voting system.
Dear Professor. Meet Australia.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Got anyone here that's on the UN Security Council?
China?
Actually, I think China just lurks.

See my edit. Don't stop the math!
Too late, it's in the public record...
Math is a great thing, it has facilitated technology, science, and essentially improved the life of all humankind.
Ominous music Bruuuuuuuuuuuummmmmmmmmmm..... But Jesse wants to stop the math. She "says" she wants to keep the math, but that's not what she told the Natter thread.
STOP IT graphic appears
Call Jesse and tell her that her mathless agenda just doesn't add up.

Do you mean "2" for the quota? I don't think that can be it, because I think the quota is the number of votes necessary to pass a measure. But the other stuff makes sense.
What Jesse said. I think you're confusing the votes with the weights of each vote. The quota is the number of votes (between 1 and 4) it takes to pass something, not the weight of those votes (1-100).

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

This is also very cute. I say that with the benefit of lots of distance from the whole shebang.

Oh, shit. That's so not what I have in my notes. Now I'm even more confused. Ok. Thank you! Time to do more reading, me thinks.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I, at least, was just extrapolating from what was posted here, between you and Strega. Because I do love math.
