Each member of the KLI (paid or guest) is eligible to submit either a Replacement Proverb or a Secrecy Proverb. Those who have purchased a Supporting Membership to the qep'a' may submit both a Replacement Proverb and a Secrecy Proverb. Attending Members are allowed to submit two of each type, for a total of four proverbs.

The submissions will then be anonymously reviewed by a panel of experts, and a list of the best candidate proverbs will be given to Marc Okrand. He will announce a new Replacement Proverb and a new Secrecy Proverb at the qep'a' in July.
