Okay. Let's for the moment disregard the fact that everyone broke a rule
in their win scheme, so nobody won.

If someone had actually won, this would be a very spiteful thing to do.
I'm really surprised that there's nothing in the ruleset preventing
taking wins away from someone; I'm pretty sure there was a proposal for
it once. The lack of such a rule is a flaw in the game. Still, wins
should not be taken away.

But you can't do that anyway, because you use the same scheme as
everyone else, which doesn't work.
