No; the legality is ambigous. The point of a CFI is to resolve cases in which 
the rules are rather unclear. In this case, the system was used, and it ruled 
that it was legal. It's not circumventing rules, merely clarifying them.

That's not your decision to make. It's the CFI system. And it has decided. Get 
over it already.

But that means the justice system was not deleted. Remember, these clarify the 
past gamestate as well, up to the statute of limitations (iirc).

It can't refer to a player anyway, r2. And r2 DOES NOT apply in the Glotmorf 
rules! rule.
