I agree with this interpretation, but I find nowhere that suggests that
payments must only be legal values of the balance switch.

You don't have to know what it is, but you _do_ have to spell it
correctly.
Greetings,
Ørjan.
I think I'm OK with supporting that interpretation.

On one hand, I'm kind of glad I don't have to try and explain what an
"algebraic integer" is to everyone since we can use the common-sense
ordinary-language definition of "integer" to mean "rational integer"; on
the other hand, I'm not convinced that saying "the unit of Balance values
is shiny" is

I agree. While for deviant cases I believe that now and then more
offshoot things can definitely arise, the rules themselves should be
as layman as possible imo (yet unambiguous and sufficiently "c

I present these comments as evidence on the called CFJ and request that for the
ease of all participants, the Secretary publish a preliminary report explaining
the state of the game, if this were to be true.

There's a pre

Do you know what I think happens? By R2483, a balance is decreased
by i and a balance is increased by i. But balance is a switch that
can only be integers, soo... (by
You know what, I can kind of see the argument for imaginary numbers being
reasonable. Quazie's remarks about personal balances being broken is still
a concern, and if it does actually go through it could be a little
inconvenient.
