I judge CFJ 3515 TRUE in concurrence with the judgement of CFJ 3511
by Gaelan. Further, by this standard any rule-defined or
non-rule-defined verb is an action. However, what it would be to “24
Hours Notice” is unclear to me, therefore I believe what is intended
is to ask whether “to give 24 Hours Notice” is an action. I find this
to be an action and to be secured if the action for which one is
giving the 24 hours notice is rule-defined, as “to give 24 Hours
Notice” is in this context synonymous with “to intent” or “to issue
intent”. I plan to soon release a thesis elaborating on the types of
actions, how they can be used, and other action related topics.

I motion to reconsider with 2 Support. The statement "any rule-defined
or non-rule-defined verb is an action" is a codification of the I Say
I Did Therefore I Did fallacy.
More elaborated arguments:
I agree with TRUE for the text of the CFJ. The issue I have is that not
every verb is an action. In fact, not every purported action is an
action. Players *can* do things by announcement, but many of those
things require other conditions to be met to be done. It would not be an
action for me to say "I distribute the following proposals" because the
action purported isn't possible for me.
