How do you know that I can tell the difference? If I couldn't tell the 
difference, the situation would look exactly the same; you therefore 
can't distinguish between the case where I can't distinguish between my 
actions and legal actions, and the case where I can distinguish but lie 
and say that I can't.

That, btw, is the sole reason we have this rule - because you can't 
prove, for example, whether Babelfish really was down during the 30 
second period while I sent in my prop or whether I'm lying so that I 
can use Pig Latin.

So you can't tell the difference between my actions and legal actions; 
I submit to you once again that they must therefore be legal. Note once 
again that I really do think (and did think) that my actions were 
legal, and so if nothing else, that made them legal.

That said, I don't think we need to use this to change other parts of 
the game - the only thing I would really consider a 'danger to the 
game' is the thought that we'll go on another week-long hiatus until I 
find time to redo all the card actions. Everything else can be 
prop-fixed.

If you'd really like to CFI it, then go ahead, but please call an 
election on the now-vacant Attorney Generalship first... more things 
need doing than I'm finding time to do.
