As shady as it is for the player Winding the Coil to be the same as
the player who posted it, it looks legal. However, while the Bonus of
the Coil is 50 points, the next-to-last paragraph of r1898 says that
"the Player who Wound the Coil receives 10 points". So, I don't know
whether to give Wonko 10, 50, or 60 points. I'm going to go with 10
for now, and fully expect and welcome a CFI to decide the issue.

So, I've updated the Roster with 10 points for Wonko. //R//

I believe that the Weaver is responsible for removing the Coil from
the Program List.

r1898 defines the bonus as "the goodies that the first player to Wind the Coil receives."

That means I get the goodies when I Wind it, and apparently 10 points extra, which I hadn't noticed earlier.

I don't find it particularly shady - I requested a program back when I didn't have time to write it, and nobody wrote it in the time between then and now; now I've spent a fair bit of time writing it and am collecting the fee.
