I'd object. It's deliberately a rare situation. In the VC version there was some deliberate asymmetry in the awards and revocations: you could gain a black VC for sentencing and then lose a blue one for having the sentence overturned. That bit's gone, but it should remain specific to the rarer situation, and reliant on someone else breaking the rules. > In fact, it sort of provides a >motivation to illegally find somebody guilty, just to get the black >ribbon. To which the appropriate response is to charge the judge with inappropriate judging, convict em, and sentence em to 1 second of exile. (Such a sentence clears ribbons and other asset holdings. And gives the new judge a legitimate black ribbon.) -zefram
