UN proposal idea

Currently there are four proposals in queue and one proposal being voted on. There has been a backlog of proposals in queue for months now, while it hasn't gotten large I am started to feel that the backlog is getting annoying.

Would it be feasible to allow the UN to vote on more than one proposal at the same time? Just put multiple resolutions at vote on the UN page.

Alternatively, I've noticed there is a one day gap between the time when the voting on a resolution ends and the next vote starts, even if there is a resolution is in queue. I imagine this has something to do with server updates. Is it possible to eliminate that one day gap between resolution votes so that when one vote ends the other vote imediately begins?

I rather like the one-day wait before a new proposal reaches the floor. It provides a break between debates and, more importantly, the extremely time-consuming telegram campaigns.

I think that would unnecessarily clutter things.

Yes, besides which, it's much better to focus debate on a single proposal at a time.

It's not a full day's gap anyways. It's a 12 hour gap. New proposals come up at the major update, and they tend to end (as far as I can see) during the minor update. So they are simply one update apart. :)

This has happened maybe two or three times in my tenure on this game. It's not worth writing new code for.
