I announce that I deregister the President. I call a CFJ on the statement "The president has been deregistered" submitting the following statement/evidence:
Rule 2326/2 states "The President is a second-class person. Causing the President to act is secured." The term "Secured" is not defined anywhere in the rules, hence I argue it hasn't really got any legal meaning - does it mean that, once caused to act no-one can undo the action, or that no-one can cause the president to act in ways not defined in the rules? This ambiguity robs the second sentance of all legal weight. Rule 869/32 states "A player who is not a person and has never been a first-class person CAN be deregistered by any player by announcement." This conflicts with: "A first-class Player CAN cause the President to take actions Without Objection, or with Agoran Consent." (Rule 2326/2). Summarising rule 1030/9, to determine which statement takes precedence: - Power (both rules are Power 2) - Neither calls for alternative method for precidence. - Neither claims precidence over, nor defers to the other explicitly. - Rule 869/32 has the lower ID number, and hence takes precidence. Therefore the president can be deregistered by announcement. Arkady.
