[Spoon-business] Ruling on CFI 1086

["Jeremy \"Athena\" Cook" <mcfoufou@xxxxxxxxx>]

Statement: Wonko's votes for nweek 23 are not valid.

Defendant: Wonko

Analysis:

Wonko was cursed by the Witch Gremlin. Per Rule 256.B.2, this means Wonko
could not legally vote until the following nweek. Wonko's claim that Rule
15, which says, "Players may vote", takes precedence over Rule 256.B.2 is
invalid, since rules taking precedence over other rules only occurs if the
rules conflict, as per Rule 33. Since Rule 10, which states, "All game
entities and the Administrator must abide by all the Rules in effect, in
the form in which they are in effect", indicates the intent is for the
rules to work together when possible, a specific-situation prohibition
such as Rule 256.B.2 does not conflict with a general-case permission such
as Rule 15; the specific-situation prohibition merely serves to qualify
the general-case permission. Players, after all, may still vote, as long
as, among other things, they're not cursed by the Witch Gremlin.

Ruling: REFUSED
Analysis: The Statute of Limitations has lapsed.

grids (concepts). Different philosophies use different grids. A culture is
a group of people with rather similar grids. Through a window we view
chaos, and relate it to the points on our grid, and thereby understand it.
The ORDER is in the GRID."
