Just for clarity, you might want to specify "eir vote *on the chosen 
Motion* is changed to ABSTAIN".

What if neither had all its contributions first? For example, I say "I 
pay 400A to forge two Wands of Extreme Uniqueness"; both get their 
contributions simultaneously and then finish at the same time.

That case will probably only arise when a single player makes two at 
once, so it'd probably be easiest to say that both are destroyed, and 
anyone who tries it is just wasting resources.

Or, we could say that Unique Talismans can never be created. One of 
each always exists in some sort of Limbo; any player may summon a 
Unique Talisman from Limbo by paying its cost, and when a Unique 
Talisman would be destroyed it instead moves to Limbo.

This should only apply if "sacrifice" is in the costs. We may want to 
use it in the body, for example
"5A: Target player sacrifices a Talisman e holds" shouldn't destroy the 
object with this ability.
