Apply an invented institution's rules practice

Use an explicitly supplied institutional charter to distinguish authority, implementation and accountability without importing a real jurisdiction's law.

Opening your practice adventure…

Try a sample

A fictional rule gives every member one vote. Twenty members vote, but one member's ballot is counted three times. Which principle in the rule is violated?

  1. A ban on recording totals.
  2. A requirement that everyone choose the same option.
  3. The spelling of the club's name.
  4. One vote per member.
See the answer & why

One vote per member.

Counting one person's ballot three times gives that person extra votes.

A little hint: Apply only the rule written in the scenario; do not assume another place has the same institutions.
