This sort of thing is generally covered by some of CFJ 1460's examples of "unreasonable effort" (e.g. the "Michael and Kelly" example): https://faculty.washington.edu/kerim/nomic/cases/?1460 while noting contracts are generally under the same standards for clarity of communication as announcements: https://faculty.washington.edu/kerim/nomic/cases/?3761 -G.
