With neither a contract nor a dependent action referred to, ais523's assertion that Agorans "have a basic idea of what it's meant to mean" is false. This Panel really has no idea. The situation is so far removed from the original that the term's relationship to a meaningful action has broken down. Whether situations slightly closer to the original would work - e.g. at least somehow involving act-on-behalf or somehow involving dependent actions - must be dealt with on a case-by-case basis. The fact that the original judge, without further research, didn't understand the meaning is an argument towards the term's growing obscurity with time, but that is secondary as it is likely that many Agorans still understand the original context of the term. Error rating: coppro propose one? -G.

Re: DIS: Re: OFF: [CotC] CFJ 2738 assigned to c.
Hmm. I agree with the judgement in that case but completely disagree with the arguments. If we allow "guide play" to mean "do absolutely nothing according to other rules", then the argument easily follows that a rule modifying a proposal's effect would not be blocked, as that rule would just be altering the "further" effects of the proposal, and the proposal is still "guiding play" by activating the relevant clauses in the rules. In other words, Rule 107 is useless. On the other hand, I interpret "must guide play in the form in which it was voted on" as "must, to the extent that it guides play, do so in the form [etc]" rather than "must guide play, and must do so in the form [etc]", so the no bonus clauses rule still works. ...uh, not that that has anything to do with the current case. What was I talking about?

Normally, I would commend the lack of arguments for such a stupid CFJ (no offense ais523), but I suppose coppro should at least explain eir reversal.

For a contested issue (in which the panel did not agree), you would think coppro would at least give some arguments.
