=============================== CFJ 3867 =============================== In the above message, I broke a pledge. ========================================================================== Caller: ATMunn Judge: Jason ========================================================================== History: Called by ATMunn: 16 Jul 2020 17:47:55 Assigned to Jason: [now] ========================================================================== Caller's Arguments: Though I did say the word I am forbidden to say due to the pledge, it was 1) not a public message and 2) not an action. So, FALSE would be logical. However, the pledge does say "in any context." Does that still make it binding, even outside of public forums?

Oath) to perform (or refrain from performing) certain actions, then breaking the pledge within the pledge's time window is the Class N crime of Oathbreaking, where N is 2 unless the pledge explicitly states otherwise. It is also Oathbreaking for a player to let a pledge expire without taking an action e pledged to do in that pledge. The time window of a pledge is 60 days, unless the pledge explicitly states otherwise. A pledge ceases to exist at the end of its time window. If breaking the pledge harms specific other parties, the Referee SHOULD solicit the opinion of those parties in determining an appropriate fine. The Notary CAN destroy a pledge Without Objection, but SHOULD NOT do so unless the pledge no longer serves any significant purpose. ==========================================================================
