That's fine, but what about the times when every one of those players is alive, but no one can agree on whether or not to call the shuttle? It usually involves one person asking everyone on the intercom if its time to call the shuttle, getting maybe one or two replies, then calling the shuttle anyways. Then someone asks "why is the shuttle called" and the shit-show begins.
If the heads can't agree on whether to call the shuttle, that's easily fixable. One of them will call it, and then everyone who actually cares will go beat the shit out of each of each other in the bridge.
I don't see anything wrong with a single player making the decision on their own, but if they decide they want to poll player opinion, they can already just send a call out over the radio. I feel like you're trying to solve a problem that doesn't exist. The people who whine the loudest about shuttle calls are usually the ones who are too busy dicking around off-station somewhere to physically come back and vote anyway.

Someone put a whole lot of effort to call or block the shuttle, foiling it should take more effort than just clicking a verb.Would you rather have one player make the call without anyones consent, or atleast give an OPTION to tally the crews vote? Sure, some people might not vote. They might ignore it or just not care. Then so be it. You'd still have the option to bust in and call the shuttle on your own anyways. Like I said, this wouldn't replace the old option of imminently calling it, but just add a new option that gets some player input.[/quote]
