Is that a problem? Asking someone if they can do something? That's like 
sinding out lightning bolts for asking if anyone wants to volunteer to be in 
infiltrator, or a bureaucrat.

Why are we even looking at punishing people who have the ability to log on late 
in the turn, or to log in frequently? Who cares? So they have an ability that you 
personally may not have. Big deal. Work around it. Find a way to neutralize it. 
Better, find a way to turn it around to your advantage.
