BUS: (@Treasuror) [Emergency] unfinished business
Was just having a final look at comments from a few months back on the
Dictatorship to see if I missed anything to fix.
Back some time ago (October), I attempted to buy a Victory Card from
Gaelan for 200 coins, through the splat market (e'd posted the offer).
When I attempted to exercise the trade, it turned out that a Treasuror's
Report had self-ratified the error that Gaelan had zero Victory Cards. So
Gaelan was self-ratified out of property, we chatted about ratifying it
back but never did.
So this is a wee bit selfish, but it's a quick fix.
I transfer 300 coins to Gaelan [adjusting original price for inflation].
I demonstrate the following rulebending form:
The following Emergency Regulation ("Quick Correction") is enacted:
When this regulation is enacted, one Victory Card is created in
G.'s possession.
I demonstrate the following rulebending form:
The Emergency Regulation "Quick Correction" is repealed.

BUS: [CFJ] Rule Numbers
I CFJ: "There exists exactly one rule with the number 2633."
Evidence:
{
Rule 2141/14 (Power=3.1)
Role and Attributes of Rules
A rule is an enduring statute. Every rule has a power between 0.1
and 4.0, inclusive. Rules to the contrary notwithstanding, it is
IMPOSSIBLE to enact a rule with power outside this range, or to
change the power of an existing rule to a nonzero value outside
this range. The set of all currently-existing rules is called the
ruleset.
Every rule shall have an ID number, distinct among current and
former rules, to be assigned once by the Rulekeepor.
Every rule shall have a title to aid in identification. If a rule
ever does not have a title, then the Rulekeepor CAN and SHALL
assign a title to it by announcement in a timely fashion.
For the purposes of rules governing modification of instruments,
the text, power, ID number, and title of a rule are all
substantive aspects of the rule. However, rules to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Rulekeepor CAN set rule aspects as described
elsewhere in this rule.
Rule 2140/4 (Power=3)
Power Controls Mutability
Rules to the contrary notwithstanding, no entity with power below
the power of this rule can
1. cause an entity to have power greater than its own.
2. adjust the power of a statute with power greater than its own.
3. set or modify any other substantive aspect of an instrument
with power greater than its own except as otherwise provided
in this rule. A "substantive" aspect of a statute is any
aspect that affects the statute's operation.
An ephemeral instrument is bound by prohibitions and limitations
specified in rules of lower power, unless it explicitly overrides
those prohibition(s) as provided for in other rules.
Rule 2125/12 (Power=3)
Regulated Actions
An action is regulated by a body of law if (1) its performance is
limited, allowed, enabled, or permitted by that body of law; (2)
that body of law describes the circumstances under which it would
succeed or fail; or (3) it would, as part of its effect, modify
information for which some person bound by that body of law is
required, by that body of law, to be a recordkeepor.
If a body of law regulates an action, then to the extent that
doing so is within its scope, that body of law prevents the action
from being performed except as described within it, including by
limiting the methods to perform that action to those specified
within it. A body of law does not proscribe any action which it
does not regulate.
}
Arguments:
{
Assigning a rule number appears to be a regulated action, as its
performance is "limited" by Rules 2141 and 2140 (since Rule numbers are
explicitly made substantive aspects of Rules, and Rules are
instruments). No Rule provides an explicit mechanism by which to set the
number of a Rule. Therefore, under Rule 2125, there is no mechanism to
assign rule numbers to rules (except by proposal most likely). Even if a
mechanism such as by annoucement were to be inferred, the standard for
by announcement has not been met, as the Rulekeepor has never announced
that e is assigning, e has only published rulesets with the numbers labeled.

BUS: humble agoran farmer greets Nietzsche
What I'm going to do here might seem weird, and it heavily involves a perspectivistic view on nomic. Basically, while the Ruleset's text may not change, our understanding of it may, which may drastically change how past actions have 'actually' worked. So I'm just doing an action/s that - in our current understanding of the rules - does nothing. That's fine to do, right? But if our understanding changes in the future, and in my favor, I could go "oh well, I actually won then, didn't I?" So, yeah I intend to piggy-back on some possible future argument that would make what I'm doing, actually work. I don't know what such an argument may be, but I don't need to, obviously. This also has the delicious extra bonus that it serves to thwart any possible scams that only require these actions to do (even if the explanation behind them would be incredibly complex), because hey: I did it first lol, even if I didn't know that I did. So the would-be scammer would likely require to make me win as well to perform them, or they just won't do them because if they reveal a new 'true' interpretation of the Ruleset, it just makes me win and screws their scam anyways. It's free to do, anyways! I can do actions that will clearly fail whenever I want, and it won't break No Faking, because as far as I'm concerned (and most of you, I presume), they just don't work, and I'm being pretty clear about this. This isn't misleading. Sure, there's ratification over time from reports and stuff that could overwrite this, but I just need to post these failing 'Nietzsche actions' between them and I should be fine. You could also try to thwart this by timing your actions between reports somehow but eh, I'm just going to rely on that people just won't go through the extra trouble. The scam protection aspect still works to a degree, anyways. Anyways, here goes: AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED, THIS DOES NOTHING AND DOESN'T WORK: I, Cuddlebeam, wield 5 or more stones. I Take Over the Economy.
