spoon-business: Apologies, Explanations, and Fixes

["Jonathan Van Matre" <JVanMatre@xxxxxxxx>]

First, my apologies to anyone who regards my mass-forfeiture action as malicious, mean, or unsportsmanlike.  I had no intention of breaking the game, and even less of making people want to stop playing.  But the latter has unfortunately begun to occur, and there seems to be a general consensus that I am in the process of destroying the game as well.  I'm sorry.

All I wanted to do is draw attention to the issue previously raised by Glotmorf, which was treated rather dismissively  by some and ultimately left still unresolved.  I took up the grand tradition of lawyers hoping to bring an issue before our Supreme Court and crafted a whopper of a test case, designed to draw public interest and judicial attention all at once.

It has clearly backfired, so **I herewith rescind my action which forfeited on behalf of all other active players**.  Which is either legal by the same mechanism that made the action legal in the first place, or unnecessary because forfeiting on behalf of others was illegal to begin with.  This should get us back to one thread, and leave a scenario where my CFJ can be judged and life can proceed as normal.

But please, let's get some clarity on what is the standard for regulation/non-regulation by the rules, and be consistent in applying it henceforth.  Or if someone can provide a comprehensive explanation showing it has been completely consistent to this point anyway, I'd accept that.

Again, my apologies, and I'll try to be less dramatic in the future.

But you can't deny it definitely got your attention.

--Scoff!
