Honestly, I really wasn't that interested in these CFJs, but they were
assigned to me so I had to judge them. I've only judged one or two CFJs
before, so I'm not the best at rules interpretation. I wanted to get the
CFJ off my back in time (but still put in effort, I wasn't about to go

Just to say that this was discussed at the time, and at least two others
(other than myself) agreed with the judgement you actually gave (I was
initially in Aris's camp personally but now I see it both ways). I'm

The only thing that enables asset destruction is in R2577, which
specifies "by its owner".

Well, none of the report actually self-ratifies at the moment because of the

Thank you. This makes sense to me. Always appreciate the Agoran history lessons

On the contrary, if I become elected, I will do everything within my

So, pro-dictatorships can vote D. Margaux; anti-dictatorships can vote

You know, I’m prepared to believe ATMunn's interpretation on the ownership
thing, but I’d like to hear why my arguments are wrong or inapplicable
here. On the first thing though, the “contracts are binding” one, I don’t
see how the proposed interpretation could possibly be correct.

Yup - if you've been sold at least once you're eligible (because the buyer
probably looted you). Last paragraph of R2532.

Huh. Nothing of interest in headers that I could see, and no unicode anywhere
in the message. If this is hiding something, it’s doing a damn good job. Maybe
it’s a test for a timing scam?
