Re: [s-d] [s-b] Paradoxical registration

["Mike McGann" <mike.mcgann@xxxxxxxxx>]

Fails.

Rule 12 states:
"If it would be legal for the Outsider to take each Game Action within the
Transaction exactly as specified, and each assertion would be true at the
time it occurs within the list if the Game Actions were so taken, then the
Transaction is said to Succeed. Otherwise, the Transaction is said to Fail."

No matter what the assertion says, it is not legal to take the Game Action
as specified by Rule 4:

"Any Human External Force who is not already a Player and who has not been a
player in the current or previous nweek can become a Player by posting a
message to a Public Forum containing a request to become a Player and a
uniquely identifying name that e wishes to be known by."

BEGIN TRANSACTION
Action: I request to register, under the name Hose.
Assertion: The Red Sox win the 2042 World Series.
END TRANSACTION

- Hose
