[MR] Marshal Questions

[Becky McEllistrem]

Here's an interesting follow up question that came up during a group conversation online last night.  


Should knights (and perhaps all peers) be required to have associates in order for their opinion to be considered valid on a polling?


IE you have no associates?  Then you may discuss candidates for an order but your polling is invalid or carries half the weight of the pollings from those that do have associates.

Don't know of kingdom or society law would have to change for that to happen which is the direction most of the discussion took most of the time.

A side tangent to that was - do you live in kingdom?  No then your polling is half the weight of those that do live in kingdom.

Doubt any serious change in this direction would ever happen but it was an interesting subject I'd never thought about before.
