Well, G. said e proposed the rule to illustrate a security hole in R106, which eir "power-limit precedence" proposal, soon to be adopted, is meant to fix. Should we could wait for someone to try to test that before repealing the rule? Personally I plan to keep voting "AGAINST if a Notice of Veto has been published..." on most proposals I'd otherwise vote FOR until the threat of unexpected last-minute vetos goes away. -- - Falsifian

Are you looking at Rule 2350 ("Proposals"), which is the only place I see that wording ("remove (syn. retract, withdraw)")? I was looking at Rule 105 ("Rule Changes"), which does not define "withdraw". Jason Cobb On 7/7/19 5:05 PM, James Cook wrote: The rule says "remove (syn. retract, withdraw)".

This may be a bit nit-picky, but I don't believe "withdraw" is defined for rules, only "repeal".

Does anyone else agree that a "by announcement" is needed here? If so, someone might want to get a proposal submitted by the next distribution. Jason Cobb On 7/3/19 12:38 AM, omd wrote: Does Proposal 8181 actually fix it? Rule 2557 still needs a "by announcement". In any case, it seems to be true that Proposal 8181 hasn't even been adopted. I judge both CFJ 3743 and CFJ 3753 FALSE, with the above-quoted messages as evidence.

Dang it; you are absolutely right, and I didn't consider that. Note to judge omd: this applies just as well to CFJ 3743. Jason Cobb On 7/2/19 10:45 PM, James Cook wrote: Gratuitous argument: As far as I know, finger-pointing still isn't fixed. CFJ 3736 determined that the Referee CANNOT levy a fine. Proposal 8181 is supposed to fix it, but D. Margaux's attempt to resolve it on June 22 failed because it didn't list Telnaior's votes, as G. noted in a CoE a few hours later.

Crime, not to make any pledges for the next 24 hours Excerpt from this message [sent after previous message]: I pledge, under penalty of a Class "I'm a string!" Crime, not to make any pledges for the next 24 hours. I fully admit that I am guilty of the above accusation. Excerpt from Rule 2450 ("Pledges"): If a Player makes a clear public pledge (syn. Oath) to perform (or refrain from performing) certain actions, then breaking the pledge within the pledge's time window is the Class N crime of Oathbreaking, where N is 2 unless the pledge explicitly states otherwise. The time window of a pledge is 60 days, unless the pledge explicitly states otherwise. Excerpt from Rule 2557 ("Vigilante Justice"): When the rules authorize an investigator to impose the Cold Hand of Justice for a violation, e CAN do so by levying a fine on the perp with a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 2x the base value of the violation, within the following guidelines: - If the violation is described by the rules as a Class N crime, then N is the base value; otherwise the base value is 2. -- Caller's Arguments: Assume that I am guilty of the crime (which is a different CFJ); otherwise, this is clearly FALSE. Because I am guilty of a class "I'm a string!" crime, the investigator CAN impose a fine on me. As specified by Rule 2557, the base value of the crime is "I'm a string!". Thus, the investigator of this crime CAN impose a fine not less than 1 (Blot) and not more than 2 * ("I'm a string!") (Blots), whatever that means. I argue that any attempt to assign a numeric value to "I'm a string!" (besides perhaps the number 0) would be arbitrary and without textual backing. If the number 0 were to be assigned, then the investigator would have to impose a fine upon me with a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 0 on me, which is the subject of CFJ 3743. My arguments here are effectively the same as CFJ 3743: only one of TRUE, FALSE, and PARADOXICAL is appropriate. TRUE doesn't really work, because there is no numeric value for which the investigator physically can fine me. FALSE doesn't really work because the Rules explicitly state that the Investigator CAN do so. PARADOXICAL is what's left, and thus might be the only one appropriate. ==
