[s-b] Consultation: Dominov > ALL?


I submit the following Consultation:

{
As of the time at which this Consultation is submitted, at an exchange rate
of 5 mackerel for 1 point, would it be possible for the Player named Dominov
to exchange all of his points for exactly 500 mackerel?

Reasoning: The above exchange would necessitate 100 points. I submit that
Dominov has AT LEAST 28 points. Because the rules do not provide a default
score for any game object, the number of points that Dominov had upon
joining the game is undefined. As such, and regardless of game custom, it is
just as valid to assume that Dominov started with 72 points as it is to
assume that e started with 0 points. Rule 17 states that score cannot be
negative, and we can state with confidence that Dominov now has 28 points
more than e started with. The number of points e currently holds cannot be
precisely defined, but it lies somewhere between 28 and positive infinity.
This interval includes 100. Also note that Dominov became a Player shortly
AFTER the Public Display of points was ratified by Wooble's Refresh
Proposal, during nweek 135.
