Purusant to Rule 2642, I initiate a stone auction with the following

I bid 100000 coins on the Concentration Stone.
To be clear, I don't intend to pay, but this seems like a legitimate and
legal (and rational, in this situation) strategy according to the
regulations.
FWIW, I haven't seen any reasonable arguments that SHALLs in the auction
regulations wouldn't be binding, given this clause in R2545:
For the purposes of
interpreting auction definitions, such methods are treated as if
they are defined in this rule.
If that works for CANs it should work for SHALLs - and if it doesn't work
for SHALLs, it shouldn't work for CANs?
Well, that sure seems to me like it invalidates my point. The crux of my
argument was that regulations by default do not create obligations and
no clauses seemed to grant auction regulations as a whole this ability.
I guess I never noticed this clause, or at least didn't realize its full
implications. Ever since I was given control of these auction
regulations, I have contested that auction they don't actually count as
binding at all, and since no one contested me, I assumed we were on the
same page.
Due to these and other factors, I have been somewhat lackadaisical with
regard to how I write auction regulations. This was irresponsible on my
part, and I now recognize that. I would have been doing more to ensure
auction safety. For this I formally apologize to the Agoran community.
This brings up an even greater need to discuss what we as a collective
want out of auction regulations.
For this purpose, I create the following pledge:
I pledge to publish at least one intention to amend the auction
regulations in order to make them safer by the end of April on penalty
of Class 4 crime.
