Re: [s-d] [s-b] C Nomic

[Jay Campbell <bnomic@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Transaction acknowledged as failed. I admittedly didn't pay attention to 
the C Nomic chatter a couple weeks ago. Although, did you gain the 
ordained property on C?

 From your next mail:

 > Oh, and just because a PD goes unchallenged, doesn't mean it is 
accurate. It can be challenged any time!

The rule says an unchallenged PD is automatically approved, so assuming 
C has been using the same public displays, they're valid until someone 
challenges an individual discrepancy. Anything on the wiki that hasn't 
changed in the last seven days, or is the result of non-B-specific 
transactions, is correct current gamestate for C Nomic.

Do you still plan on letting me become a voting member of Black 
corporation? Else I need to file a consultation around the semantics of 
the word "member" before proposal voting ends. I wouldn't want to miss 
out on my dividends again.
