Ok! Sorry I missed process details. Not a race!!
To enter, you have to publicly outline/ describe the full idea of the
loophole during Read the Ruleset week. If you're actually pulling the trick
as a scam, you need to make sure we (the "public") have the info we need to
understand how the scam works or is supposed to work by the end of the week
(even if you haven't made the final moves yet).
After the Week ends, I'll list all entries and my initial opinion on them,
and ask for discussion to figure out who won.
Privately I'm willing to be a free patsy - if your scam needs someone else,
I'm willing to perform (ethical non rules-breaking that don't cost me a lot)
actions for free, to further the scam. I'll keep all private stuff private
- private communications don't count as an entry.

What happens if we publically reveal the loophole? No points? Or thats how
you’re supposed to do it? (And it becomes a race)

Or do we all send it to you in private manner or something (in which case,
Im up for trading/sharing loopholes with people so that me and the trader
have the most loopholes, shhhh *puts finger on lips* Kerim would never know
we traded, its flawless)

Please Read the Ruleset - a mini-competition pledge by the Herald
I pledge to attempt to award an appropriate unique patent title to
whomever points out the most interesting or fun Rules loophole or
unexpected Rules interaction during Read the Ruleset week. Further, I'll
give a purse (from my personal holdings) of 25 coins to said person,
if at all possible.
Details:
- If it's a scam, you don't necessarily have to try to attempt to pull
off the scam to enter. But feel free to! If you do try it as a scam,
the results must clean up after themselves and "be nice" or will be
disqualified.
- Loopholes that require rules violations to work are disqualified.
- If the consensus is that the loophole is a bug, you must propose a
fix.
- Bonus points for the longer the loophole has sat in the rules
unnoticed, whether it's obvious once pointed out, and other aspects
of cleverness of the whole thing (i.e. relying on really iffy twisting
of definitions or rules readings is a minus).
- Final decision is the Herald's, but I'll try to find consensus (and
of course the Patent Title award needs 2 Agoran Consent).
