It was the fraction "2/3" that Russ objected to in the first place,
pointing out that this means 6 out of 8 if everyone's present - which he
thought was too much of a required majority.
Which just points to a lower fraction, not to absolute numbers.
I understand that you and Scott both think the same thing - although I
don't understand why, I'll ask the question in a different way - is using
the term "5/8 of the voting members" an acceptable phrase?
As long as we have 8 voting members, that translates to 5 members.
For those who want to see what they are discussing under different
scenarios, here is the number of people needed to remove the chair with
varying fractions and varying number of members of the IAOC:
Number Out of 8 Out of 7 Out of 6 Out of 5
3/4 6 6 5 4
2/3 6 5 4 4
5/8 5 5 4 4
