The Independent Ascension Application Act:
Rules For Ascension Applications



In addition to the requirements for ascension outlined in the Indoles Carta, the following provisions govern the voting process for applications for rank ascension.


Application for Ascension to King/Queen


Dukes residing in land independent of any other realm recognized under the Council of the Crowned may apply for ascension to the rank of King/Queen of the Council of the Crowned.


a) From the time at which the application for ascension is formally declared in the Imperial Court (posted on the forums), a period of one mercannum (one month) is allowed for voting by members of the Council of the Crowned as outlined in Section II of the Indoles Carta.


b) During this period, members of the Council of the Crowned may record a vote for or against the application; though not required, it is strongly encouraged to provide a rationale behind the vote cast. Members of the Council of the Crowned may set conditions for their vote which must be satisfied by the applicant within a set timeframe, potentially extending the voting period.


c) At the conclusion of the voting period, members of the Council of the Crowned who have not recorded a formal (posted as a response) vote for or against the application shall have their vote recorded as a vote against the application.


d) If an application does not receive the required unanimous (100%) vote in support as outlined in Section II of the Indoles Carta within the voting period, the application is unsuccessful. Unsuccessful applications may be resubmitted no earlier than one mercannum (one month) after the application failed.


Application for Ascension to Duke Under the Council of the Crowned


Counts residing in land independent of any other realm recognized under the Council of the Crowned may apply for ascension to the rank of Duke.

b) During this period, members of the Council of the Crowned and members of the House of Dukes may record a vote for or against the application; though not required, it is strongly encouraged to provide a rationale behind the vote cast. Members of the Council of the Crowned and members of the House of Dukes may set conditions for their vote which must be satisfied by the applicant within a set timeframe, potentially extending the voting period.


c) At the conclusion of the voting period, members of the Council of the Crowned who have not recorded a formal (posted as a response) vote for or against the application shall have their vote recorded as a vote against the application.
