Meant to mention that *that* likely doesn't work either: http://cfj.qoid.us/1290 (summary: you can't repurpose one kind of announcement to make the announcer perform secondary *UNINTENDED* actions against eir will). Yeah, you're probably right. Of course I am not attempting to make you perform a directly game-relevant action on your own behalf, merely 'trigger' something, but I suppose exercising power of attorney is fundamentally an action by the exerciser. Now, this public message obviously alludes to the PoA, so it's fine. I hereby use it to state that, any time I make a public statement that does *not* explicitly allude to this PoA, I am specifically ignoring, therefore implicitly alluding to, the possibility of triggering the PoA. This, however, I think does not work :)

It's a strong suspicion that endorsing doesn't work for Agoran Consent. The only way we could twist it would be to interpret it as aranea has the power of attorney to act for me on this specific matter, which e activates by acting emself. That's a bit of a long stretch for the term endorse though it's pretty clearly the desired outcome... the main reason I wouldn't favor it is that *you* didn't explicitly intend PoA to come into play, and PoA shouldn't be allowed without fully informed consent. -G.

I believe tradition is that this doesn't do anything, since the rules have to define a way for the state to persist.
