Would we rather vote on the fine details of a subject, or a broad proposal drafted by members?
For example, when making standards for voting, we would either create individual polls for deciding conditions when a vote is passed, what should happen before a pole is created, contingencies for an absent voter, whether users should be allowed to change their vote, what happens when there are conflicts with previous polls, etc; or we could vote on "Thork's Voting Standards", which outlines a suggestion for all of this in a single written proposal.
Absent a formal voting procedure, voting will conclude when all 5 participants have voted.
