I'm not terribly worried about proposals to allow new material; I got carried away with my theoretical power and kind of missed the point. I'm more worried about one-off proposals for exceptions, like "give Tonk 18 CON", "let Hrav have retroactive DM gold", "let Palindrome have an overhaul even though he's higher than level 1" and so forth.
In particular, I fully expect Quagmire to profit indirectly from Hrav getting that extra gold, in that Quag's party will be that much more powerful. Should I not have voted on that? What if I had decided to spend DM points of my own at the same time garyh did, and had made a proposal of my own that Quagmire get retroactive DM gold? Should garyh have been able to vote on that? I think there's a pretty obvious quid pro quo there.
I mean, if all we're talking about here is "I propose Dragon 666", then, yeah, who cares.
