If the removal of the target would allow actions to be taken that were declared before balefire was used, those actions occur. If those actions are player actions, the player who would

-But how often do we perform an action on one thing in the space of six days? That's the longest possible time balefire works, remember. Most times, this doesn't mean much, really. So if we had Gnomes /now,/ then you could retroactively stop a PGGB, thus also stopping someone getting 250 points and winning, perhaps, but you couldn't stop the one I had about twenty nweeks ago. So this wouldn't screw things up too much, I don't think. And it might even help.-
