Who IS a football player? Why?

Did we ever actually settle whether it was 'nweek' or 'enn-week'?

What, no toads? ;)

Doesn't this have to be a rule, then, not merely a charter? Gremlins can't
pick up grid objects, so a society can't force them to.

You might want to add 'and the object is returned to the Pool' - otherwise
someone could join, take something (being ousted in the process), then join
again, and keep doing it 'till they've cleaned out the Pool.
