Unless i'm mistaken, the only part of reaching that wasn't implemented is the increase of base rockiness from the dream of gardens, which the rest of reaching functions without. I will note i did an unsuccessfully wield here, where i had forgotten i'd already done it that week: https://www.mail-archive.com/agora-business@agoranomic.org/msg44074.html But i had the score stone the whole week, and still have it, as far as i can tell. Janet only had it for a moment, on sunday the 19th. Hopefully everything should be cleared up now, as it's been quite confusing. -- snail

It is often (usually?) possible to get the same effect by taking an action unconditionally in such a way that it will fail if the relevant conditions aren't met (although it wouldn't have been possible for the above score win attempt), with a Truthiness disclaimer explaining that it will fail if you're wrong about the gamestate. I've been using that technique in preference to conditional actions, where possible. -- ais523
