 In answer to the other question, try:

 Rule 701/5
  Crime
  Mohammed (Jason Orendorff)

To break the Rules is to commit the Crime of Blatant Disregard.

To perform an action specified by the Rules to be Illegal is the Crime
of Illegal Action. An action specified by the Rules to be
"impermissible" is, by contrast, impossible. Although such an action
does not occur it is not in itself a crime.

If, however, the illegality or impossibility of a publically knowable
change to the game state goes unreported for at least 14 days, the
action or inaction which caused that change is considered legal, but
it is still a Crime. The change is deemed to have occurred
retroactively to the time of the attempt. The preceding does not apply
to the case of events which occur automatically, but whose occurrence
is not (or erroneously) reported [e.g., loss of the Great
Trombone]. This paragraph has precedence over rule 103 (Retroactive
Effects).

Failure of an Officer to perform a Duty of an Office e holds is the
Crime of Non-Performance. The act of performing a Duty incorrectly is
the Crime of Malpractice.
