Drafted this on discord, there was some disagreement about whether this
was a good idea at all, but I think this wording fixes the identified
problems:
Amend Rule 2449 by appending the following paragraphs:
{
The above notwithstanding, persons do not win the game if conduct in
violation of the rules was substantially, reasonably directly,
reasonably necessarily, and reasonably immediately, a cause of the
conditions causing them to win.
The above notwithstanding, persons do not win the game if they
previously won the game due to conditions arising out of the same
instance of the same set of circumstances.
A public document purporting to make a correct claim that one or more
persons won the game at the time of the message (or, at the time of the
message, satisfied conditions causing them to win the game) is a
self-ratifying attestation that those persons won the game at the time
of the message. A person SHALL NOT create such a public document unless
e reasonably believes that there is a non-frivolous argument for its
truth; doing so is the Class 6 Crime of Falsifying Laurels.
