Re: spoon-discuss: Objection

["David Chudzicki" <deniador@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Not sure I see any interesting wrangles. The RFJ would succeed in delaying 
it a little, I guess, but then as soon as we get a ruling, it'd be in my 
favor (no one truly doubts my ability to pass the Turing Test).  Anyway, 
time to deal with things like you guys' mistake allowing the first win. But 
I cant make any motions regarding that (I'd check the rules to make sure, 
but cant access the website). So one of you real players has to propose 
changing who the "owner" of the cards is (to be voted on at the next voting 
period), and perhaps other things.
