Yeah, I can get that. Luckily it's really isolated stuff so it's pretty much just the paradoxer/CFJ Judge playing with each other for these shenanigans. On Wed, Feb 7, 2018 at 1:20 AM, Madeline wrote: > It's not fun at all. :( > > > > On 2018-02-07 11:17, Cuddle Beam wrote:

Gratuitous Argument: Obviously, the veracity of the statement "This sentence is false" is indeterminate, as Rule 2518 ("Determinacy") makes clear. As a result, whether or not you owe shinies to Agora is indeterminate, whether or not you owe shinies to Cuddlebeam is indeterminate, and if you

From the Ruleset: Rule 2518/0 (Power=3.0) Determinacy If a value CANNOT be reasonably determined (without circularity or paradox) from information reasonably available, or if it alternates indefinitely between values, then the value is considered to be indeterminate,

Well, the honorary office is being admin on the main mailing lists. It's not even really an "office" or in the rules anywhere. E's been willing to keep doing that and technical continuity tends to beat out rules/offices (e.g. with domains, etc.) But now that you mention it, maybe I'm wrong -

Re: DIS: Win by paradox?

I'm guessing another way this could work is via Pledges which have even less restrictions. Just custom-write whatever you need to engineer a paradox. The main concern would be dodging "irrelevant", though. But it could be doable. On Tue, Feb 6, 2018 at 6:02 AM, Cuddle Beam
