[spoon-discuss] Orc


So in a message I never actually got, Glotmorf wrote something like this:

Tsk. Dude, r14 clearly says a former player "ceases to be a player in this game, and ceases to be bound by its rules. In addition, e ceases to be anything else defined within the scope of this game", which, I should think, includes a uniquely named object. If the entity originally known within the scope of this game as Orc in a Spacesuit has ceased to be anything defined within the scope of this game, then e is in fact not part of the gamestate.

I consider this the fault of the wording of r14. I would be more sympathetic about this, perhaps, if its current wording wasn't the doing of the entity originally known as Orc in a Spacesuit...


Although r14 does say that e ceases to be anything defined in the game, it then immediately states that 'E then becomes a "former player" in this game', thus putting em back in the gamestate.
