Then that's extremely ambiguous wording, despite the comma. You should
perhaps say "is either a Lost Soul, or not a Game Object".

How's this:
An External Force may become a Player by posting a message to a Public Forum containing a request to become a player and a uniquely identifying name that e wishes to be known by. It may do this if and only if it fulfills the following requirements:
* It is capable of passing the Turing Test
* Either it is a Lost Soul, or it is not already a Game Object at all.
* It has a working e-mail address
