By the way, Wonko, or should I say 8-9-3, your Uinish trick here won't
work, because things in props don't refer to a player unless they say
"The Player 8-9-3", or they're unambiguous (unlike this prop).
I think that the phrase "['one point']" is a parenthetical expression,
but with brackets instad of parentheses. Since {{ }} are the standard
delimiters, it's clear that what's being added is what's in the {{ }}s.

I agree that the poetry isn't up to Sagitta's usual standard, which IMHO
is quite high.

I'm voting against this because I think the point of 8-9-3 is to reward
voting against the suspected norm, and publicity is irrelevant here.

Wonko, yes, if you were so inclined to do that, I do think you should
be able to stop the game by removing a quote from the page. I think
we would probably hold a vote of no confidence for you after you did so,
but I think the game should not proceed if the displays aren't up-to-date.
