Re: [s-d] [s-b] Moving On...


I remember an incident in B in which a player (probably you) pointed out that 
retroactive date-stamps would appear to have been received earlier than in 
actuality.  There was a minor scam (something like usurping a Ministry without 
letting anyone object) involved.

If it did happen, it was probably my fault. I remember sending forged
headers to at least one email nomic, maybe two, several months ago,
mostly just to see what would happen. (Agora, at least, because
"Any action performed by sending a message is performed at the time
date-stamped on that message."; I was hoping to cause an argument about
which date counted.)
