I had problems with the legislative session scenes. If Laura was using Robert's Rules of Order, as it appeared she was, she totally botched it - when Gaius seconded the motion to have elections for president, the body should NOT have moved directly to a vote. Getting a "second" only opens the door for discussion, not voting! I screamed at the TV for them botching this...call me a bylaws geek, but I just went to a national convention of my organization, and an error like that wouldn't have been tolerated. RM needs to research Robert's Rules more if he's going to have more legislative scenes.
