Are you referring to B Nomic rules? or the Primo Corporation rules?
Primo Corporation Shareholders did indeed authorize it's Officer
(myself) to act on it's behalf in declaring it a player. See Issue #11
at:
http://groups.google.com/group/primo-corporation/browse_thread/thread/aea2550bfd4c46a7

Of course, no rule in B Nomic specifically allows me to act on behalf
of Primo Corporation, but I would argue that it doesn't need to.
