Comments welcome. Sorry that it's so long. I went back and forth on
3726 a couple of times.
I believe this is due on June 4 at 21:53 UTC. I plan to send it out
the next couple of days.
This is my judgement of CFJs 3726 and 3727.

Thanks. I think that makes sense, and it certainly makes CFJ 3726 more
interesting. I'll assume you're right unless I hear more about it.

Maybe, but I’d guess not. Assigning a number to something is inherently a
by announcement action. If I say “this is boat number 1”, then it’s boat #1
by my definition. All Rule 2141 does is to say the Rulekeepor’s definitions
are the ones officially recognized by Agora.

This is indeed a tad confusing. The Ritual was explicitly designed as an
expirement to test this very point. Either everyone is a violator or (more
likely) no one in particular is. Either way, we’re supposed to feel a
collective responsibility to make sure that it is performed.

[This continues my newbie questions.]
Here it goes: who exactly can be punished for violating Rule 2596 ("The
Ritual")?
The problematic phrasing is: "The Ritual MUST be performed at least once in
every Agoran week."
Clearly this Rule wishes to specify that such an inaction is a violation.
However
Wow. Thank you all for the quick replies. I really was not expecting it
that quickly.
That all makes sense, thank you.

Y’all, I think you’re overthinking this. “authorize” isn’t necessarily a
synonym for “enable”. According to Google, the definition is “give official
permission for or approval to”. I think telling someone they’re required to
do something as part of their job counts as “authorization” to do it

As AIS523 says, there is no perscribed method of ID assignment. I assign
each rule the ID number one greater than the one enacted before it.
Theoretically, I *could* influence the way rules are interpreted in a
very minor way, but I don't see any purpose. The general a

Looking at judge G.'s "BREAKING NEW EVIDENCE" at the bottom of the

These all make sense to me, though I haven't dug too deeply.
I noticed a few things while researching whether ratification can in
some sense "change the past". I'll post separately about that,
