Messing with MediaWiki is enough of a pain that I'm going to keep
doing this by e-mail. I'll follow this with a picture; my current
picture (which I never did get uploaded to the wiki) still mistakenly
has the Orange Empire rather than a White one and hasn't been updated
to reflect Marr's position. Future MOG/MOW reports will include
current versions of the picture as attachments, but this one doesn't -
yet. I'm going to post that later, though. It includes the position
and color of squares, the position, health, and weapons of people, and
for convenience a display of the squares people can stab. It does not
include the Laws of the various squares.

For the record, your MOG dislikes having a White region; he had been
using that as a background color but will switch to beige until
somebody makes a beige square.

I believe the following to be correct, however, and offer it for
display to the public in the meantime, in my capacity as Minister of
the Grid and Minister of Warfare, acknowledging that if comex's
judgement about the Printer is overturned as Inconsistent much of this
will turn out to have been wrong. Should this occur, I will post a new
PD immediately; this one includes comments about what that would say.

ehird is resident at (18,100) and is unarmed and dead. [[If comex's
judgement is found Inconsistent, ehird is at 100 health.]]

Warrigal is resident at (18,101) and has an unused well-sharpened
pencil and 100 health.
teucer is at (18,101) and has an unused well-sharpened pencil and a
rapier with 15 uses remaining. He has 100 health. [[If comex is wrong,
teucer does not have the rapier.]]
(18,101) is colored (0,0,0) (hereinafter "Black").
The Laws of Black, tracked by Brian (currently, Brian is Warrigal) are
found at http://groups.google.com/group/diplonomic/web/tentative-rules
[[Depending on certain judgments that are only possibly true if comex
is wrong, the square *may* be Uncoloured.]]

comex is resident at (17,100) and has 100 health.
Sgeo is resident at (17,100) and has 100 health.
(17,100) is colored (255,255,255) (hereinafter "White").
The Laws of White, tracked by comex, are:

{{{
The pencil sharpener is an abstract entity that exists only within the
scope of these Laws.  comex can, with the pencil sharpener, amend the
rules, award macks, and destroy them according to the following
procedure by announcing to a Public Forum that e is performing that
procedure with the pencil sharpener:
{
In rule 5E48, after the text {Laws can define things which a Resident
on them shall or shall not do, and can also define abstract entities
that exist only within the scope of the Laws, and define what
Residents on them can or cannot do with them.} add the text { They
cannot cause changes to the gamestate as defined outside of the Laws,
except when explicitly allowed to do so by the Rules.}}
Award each of {comex, Sgeo} 30 macks.
Destroy all macks created with the Laser Printer.
}

comex is the Tracker of white.  Any of {comex, Sgeo}, with the consent
of the other, can amend these Laws.
}}}

Marr965 is at (101,103) and has an unused Well-Sharpened Pencil.

All squares that are not mentioned in this PD as being Black or White
are Uncoloured.
