This fails for going to DIS.

Also, it's much easier for me if you vote in the distribution thread
(and you can vote on all of the other proposals as well in one message).

I actually believe that we might already be doing that by not allowing
players with blots to win. People know if they have blots, and the point
of blots is to punish them. If this were a proposal, I would vote FOR.

This isn't intended to incentivize finger-pointing – there is no reward
for being the person who notes an infraction, only a penalty for the
person who infracted.

Do you think that people would be sufficiently anxious to try to
slightly impede the leader that it would become a problem?

The last time we incentivized finger-pointing for personal economic gain
we had a long-term player FAGE. This is not something we should be
trying to repeat.
