Arguments: Rule 2506 says that the penalty must be "between 1 shiny and the greater of 25 shinies and the amount the bad sport profited from the infraction,". If the profit is not in shinies, this leads to only two possible intepretations of the rule: a) The maximum is the shiny-equivalent of the amount profited. b) The maximum can be in the currency profited. There is no specification that the maximum must be in shinies, however, so I think b) is correct. Clearly, the "amount e profited" in this case is 3000 NPR Favours, it is not some number of shinies. Thus, a fine of anything between 1 shiny and 3000 NPR Favours is valid; it's unclear what fits in between this, but 3000 NPR Favours must be included since it is the end of the allowable range. -Alexis
