We'll fix it after the emergency As I noted before, the current standard seems to be that "can", "may", and "must" both refer to possibility (informal), while "shall" refers to punishability (formal). If I'm wrong about that, then please point out specific cases (esp. for "can") that differ. In particular, if the proposed new formal standard is adopted, then the restrictions on Laws affecting rule-defined gamestate should be adjusted to match it as intended (i.e. they are physically barred except as explicitly allowed by the rules, e.g. limiting teleportation). _______________________________________________ spoon-discuss mailing list spoon-discuss@xxxxxxxxx http://lists.ellipsis.cx/mailman/listinfo/spoon-discuss
