Committee - a group of men who individually can do nothing but as a group decide that nothing can be done.

If you want to kill any idea in the world, get a committee working on it.

in this case?

A bunch of experienced players/designers/rule experts spit balling effective ways to curb unfavorable interactions in this game.

It was decided that a smaller group would be able to reach an effective consensus quicker than a large body without the vitriol and high emotions often brought into these discussions.

'Referring the matter to a committee' can be a device for diluting authority, diffusing responsibility and delaying decisions.

We have never had something like this before. I say we wait until January to decide if we are going to be disappointed or not. Everybody complains that the v-set team doesn't "do enough". Finally we have a group dedicated to helping the game, but most people are pissing in their coffee before they can even decide what flavor it is they want to drink.

Someone get Jak a Snickers. I like him better when he's making me snort coffee out of my nose. Seriously dude, we're talking about it. It's not like we have some impending tournament. I actually pushed for more changes regarding the mouse droid than I've seen posted here.

Throttle back your Id, Jack. He's just urging a little patience. Yes, the squad builder stuff has been long in updating. Don't lump all these disappointments in with the Mouse.

A thing that Queen Amidala will not wait around for them to decide the fate of her people.

She moves for a Vote of No Confidence.
