The CFJ in the below message is 4028. I assign it to G. Statement: "There was an infraction noted in this message."
Judgement FALSE, due to the use of conditional announcements in the noting attempts, where the conditions were not "reasonably straightforward to evaluate at the time with publicly-available information at the time of communication" as required by Rule 2518/1. In general, the "reasonably straightforward" clause means that the caller themselves must be able to resolve the conditional with a bit of minor research in the archives (e.g. looking at recent past activities) such that resolving the conditional is a fairly minor act of interpretation/convenience. These conditionals, which hinge on a complex question, are not so easy to evaluate. [I'm not meaning to stack the deck by judging this one, but rather to expedite a different case if someone attempts to Note Invisibilitating unconditionally. I'd assign any such case to someone else. But hiding behind conditionals for criminal allegations doesn't/shouldn't work - if you want to Note, you need to take a risk and unconditionally allege that a specific act was a violation]. Rule 2518/1 (Power=3) Determinacy If a value CANNOT be reasonably determined (without circularity or paradox) from information reasonably available, or if it alternates indefinitely between values, then the value is considered to be indeterminate, otherwise it is determinate. A communication purporting to express conditional intent to perform an action is considered unclear and ambiguous unless, at a minimum, the conditional is determinate, true, and reasonably straightforward to evaluate with publicly-available information at the time of communication. The communicator SHOULD explain specific reasons for being uncertain of the outcome when e makes the communication. ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Yachay Wayllukuq via agora-business <agora-busin...@agoranomic.org> Date: Fri, May 12, 2023 at 5:00 AM Subject: Re: BUS: [Proposal] now you don't see it To: Agora Business <agora-busin...@agoranomic.org> Cc: Yachay Wayllukuq <yachaywayllu...@gmail.com> So, after the silence, finding that a couple other players actually don't know what "Invisibilitating" is either, and some simple searches in the mail archives, apparently "Invisibilitating" relies on gamestate that supposedly still exists after 10+ years. I thought we didn't dig into the past that far to consider how many turtles down the current gamestate was held up by, but if we do, then: - Why would we make a special case just for Invisibilitating specifically? What about other ancient things that may affect how other *current* things of the game work too? - Are we even sure that the secret Invisibilitating instrument still exists or works as intended? - It takes agency away from newer players and puts more into older ones which are more familiar with this obscure ancient arcana which has now supposedly been made relevant, which feels terrible. Thankfully, I'm far from a win so I have a margin to endure risking some blots, which I'll spend to try to uncover more about this. G., the person who proposed to add that rule, is both the default investigator for the Referee, and the person who holds the office for CfJs, so I trust that this is gameplay that they intended and will participate in. I look forward to the investigation (if any) and the resulting CfJ. Their arguments in particular. -------- If 4st has committed the following infraction for the following reason described, then I note the infraction of Invisibilitating performed by 4st for being a player. If 4st has committed the following infraction for the following reason described, then I note the infraction of Invisibilitating performed by 4st for holding an office. If 4st has committed the following infraction for the following reason described, then I note the infraction of Invisibilitating performed by 4st for their latest message posted to fora. If 4st has committed the following infraction for the following reason described, then I note the infraction of Invisibilitating performed by 4st for jaywalking without a license, compounded by having dangerous levels of swagger. I CfJ: "There was an infraction noted in this message."
