Agora's Child submits the following transaction:
BEGIN TRANSACTION
As a Game Action, I change
{
Any player (as a Game Action) may declare any Game Action which has occurred 
within the past NDay to be Invalid, unless that Game Action was to declare 
another Game Action invalid, or to submit a consultation. An invalid Game 
Action is treated as if it never occurred. An Outsider whose Game Action has 
been declared invalid may submit a consultation whose text reads "XXX is 
valid", where XXX is the Game Action they attempted to perform. When that 
consultation becomes Pondered, if the priest answered it Yes, the Player who 
declared that game action to be invalid loses 10 Points. 
}
to read
{

which has occurred within the past NDay to be Invalid, unless that Game

in rule 1-10.
END TRANSACTION
I stop my panic button.
The AFO, if it is a PEP, stops its panic button.
