It doesn't matter, actually: the scope of a ratification gets put into the next report, but has no other effect. Instead, the gamestate is unilaterally modified so the document was completely true and accurate, regardless of whether it contains 'irerlevant' information.

It was pointed out that Agoran culture tends toward creating single test cases with minimal knock-on results, while B culture tends toward wild experimentation (to the point that it has a standing rule for freezing and repairing the gamestate whenever enough players decide it's become broken). The FRC is an interesting hybrid. The fantasy rules are explicitly designed to be wiped whenever the players run out of steam for extending them, while the regular ordinances are largely static in practice.

I believe 23 Jan 96 - 24 Sep 07 would be most accurate. From Vanyel's CFJ archives, I was assigned to CFJ 839 (Tue 23 Jan 96 12:50 MET) CFJ 847 (Tue 23 Jan 96 12:55 MET) CFJ 847 was one of several CFJs hinging on whether Morendil was able to invoke the deregister rather than continue to play clause retroactively, hence whether e or Steve was Speaker). This issue, and specifically my being assigned to judge one of the CFJs on it, is my earliest clear memory of Agora. I think I was registered continuously throughout 1997. Multiple archives (Zefram's rules, Steve's [?] CFJs, the AWJ) support this. According to the AWJ, Oerjan registered on 15 July 2000 (the report mis-reports this as ~ Apr 96), while nothing relevant to registration happened to me. I suspect that a past Registrar got the two of us mixed up, somehow. The current players section should also include Zefram's registration from 1995. Blob's deregistration in 1997 can be narrowed down to some time before eir re-registration on 11/20/97. Similarly for Morendil, 1997, 11/3/97. Per the CFJ archive, Doug was eligible to judge on 12 Apr 96, so eir deregistration was 13 Apr 96 and not 25 Mar 96. Manu's deregistration is not listed in the Left in 2003 section. GreyKnight did not deregister on 2/7/07 (CFJ 1621). AC is a duplicate of (Alex) Coco. Gecko is a duplicate of Wes. A bunch of the old fuzzy dates can be narrowed down based on the CFJ archive (many of the messages include a full list of players and their eligibility status), but doing it correctly would take a lot of effort that probably isn't worth the bother.

By Rule 2126, I gained one white VC upon becoming a player for the first time, which happened quite recently. Thus, by Rule 2155, I am of the White Party, not the Gray Party.

Rule 1551 says, in part: When a document is ratified, the gamestate is modified so that the ratified document was completely true and accurate at the time it was published. Nevertheless, the ratification of a document does not invalidate, reverse, alter, or cancel any messages or actions, even if they were unrecorded or overlooked, or change the legality of any attempted action. The recently ratified Assessor's Report lists two dependencies on CFJ 1688 in the history (left untouched by the second sentence of the above excerpt), but not in the totals (which may or may not be affected by the first sentence): 1) My VCs. Totals are not in question, as I spent myself down to zero on May 31 either way. 2) Human Point Two's (V,E)VLOP. Total would be 10 if CFJ 1688 is judged TRUE, 8 if it is judged FALSE. If CFJ 1688 is judged FALSE, then I'll likely CFJ on the following: * Human Point Two's VLOP increased from 0 to 10 between May 30 and June 2. * Human Point Two's EVLOP is 10. I recommend a proposal to clarify this paragraph of Rule 1551 (which Proposal 5101 does not attempt to alter), and solicit suggestions for how it should be clarified.

This arguably doesn't apply to the recent instance: I have interpreted these notes in the history as qualifying the table as well as the history. I would have previously objected to the table if those notes did not exist. I think, therefore, that the totals are still conditional on CFJ 1688 after the ratification. but consider a hypothetical case in which a typo led to a flat-out discrepancy between two sections, both of which were then ratified.
