Here are some proposed amendments to help fix the recent problems with the CoC, and should be a reasonable compromise on this issue. There are four changes that these amendments will cause:
1. A backup time will be created in case no member of the CoC could come to a turnchat
2. The President will post that, in the event that nobody eligible arrives to play the save, the chat is rescheduled to its backup time.
3. The President will make every effort to ensure that someone from the CoC will be present to play the save.
4. Executive deputies will now be included in the CoC.
