I announce a transfer of a unit of the usual non-existent praise-expressing 
currency from myself to Phlogistique, for producing the first interesting 
example of the usual CFJ that I've noticed recently.  -G.

 Arguments: The usual CFJ, despite being established in game custom,
 doesn't have a standard phrasing, although there are some common ones.
 (I am a player or Phlogistique is a player are two plausible
 wordings.) I'd say that the meaning of the statement of the CFJ is
 unambiguous, but the exact statement of the phrasing is ambiguous. Does
 that matter?

I would have thought that the specific wording of the CFJ created by
my message would be Also, the usual CFJ.

(Not sure if and how that relates to your point.)

These days, AGAINT is treated the same as any other Rule 754 (1) typo
(see Judge Zefram's arguments in CFJ 1885).  I thought we'd decided
otherwise, but apparently I remembered wrong (or at least it's only
ambiguous if the poster says ha ha, this is ambiguous! or something
along those lines).  Here's the message that Zefram mentions:

I'm surprised as well; you've treated AGAINT as ambiguous several
times since, and its being ambiguous was referred to in CFJ 2793.  I
think by this point game custom has progressed so that it actually is
ambiguous (since there is an R754 ambiguity in meaning).

I would normally have complained about explaining jokes being unfunny,
but even though I was aware of AGAINT being a thing, I did not know
about the original CFJs, and so they were quite a good read.

As a side note: users of Yubnub http://yubnub.org/ can now use the
command cfj 1885 to get to

Arguments: In my opinion, this is really stretching our leniency with
registration requests to breaking point, especially since its author
was clearly aiming for ambiguity.
