21A1 - "The Voting Booth" Motion 2012-A-1

Since the Governors have voted to split the motion and since both the President and the mover of the motion think my suggested breakdown of the revised motion is OK I will now put the text of the motion (in my message 29 which follows) to a vote called 2012-A-1

=== Motion 1 ===

The admittance to the Tournament of such exceptions shall be entirely at the discretion of the CFC Board of Directors.
