I'd lean AGAINST on this one--finding/exploiting paradoxes is fun and (when done well) fairly harmless. Of course, there's always a risk that someone makes a mess of the gamestate going for a paradox win, but (1) that's a risk with any scams, and (2) cleaning up gamestate messes is, for me, part of the fun. But, obviously, if other people feel strongly that they aren't worth the trouble, I'm not too attached to it. I'll probably vote AGAINST, but I'm fine with it passing. Gaelan
