I'm not convinced that's a problem; I can't think of a situation in which such a distribution could happen, except if a new player joined immediately after an entire team deregistered (and if that happened, why wouldn't the last player on that team to deregister snatch a win immediately before deregistering?) I agree with the other comments, though; I'll retract and repropose (maybe not immediately) to deal with them. Also, where are the vuvuzelas? Not in this proposal, although of course they can be added later. -- ais523

This would cause a single Independent player to win immediately upon the distribution. The Referee is an office, which does most of the tracking related to Teams. Eir report includes (among other things, described in other rules) a list of all Teams. The parenthetical exception is typically left implicit in The X's report includes Y clauses. The Referee MAY list in eir weekly report a list of all Fans and their owners at the time of the last Power Station Manager's report, rather than a list of all Fans and their owners as of the time of eir own report; doing so does not violate rule 2166 or 2143, and this rule takes precedence over rule 2166. Rules to the contrary notwithstanding, the Referee's requirement to report a list of all instances of Fans and their owners is satisfied by publishing such a list as of the time of the last PSM's report. or Rules to the contrary notwithstanding, the Referee's requirement to report a list of all instances of Fans and their owners need not reflect changes since the last PSM's report. Whenever a non-Independent player gains an erg, the Team that player's Allegiance is set to gains a Fan. ...that player's Team gains a Fan. Also, where are the vuvuzelas?

Yeah, mentioning rule numbers is ugly. Also, where are the vuvuzelas?
