These are CFJ 3502 and CFJ 3503 respectively. I assign them to o.


Arguments:
Agencies might be a limited resource of (26^3) possible existing agencies.
From my reading of rule 2461, it seems like a number is likely not possible
within an agency's Acronym, as numbers aren't words, but I wouldn't be
surprised if non-english words would allow us to get to more than
(26^3) agencies [More language bits!].


Parts of 2461:
..

a) A title, which must be exactly three words, not
   counting conjunctions, articles or prepositions.

..

  An Agency, once created, SHOULD be referred to by the acronym
  formed from its title with conjunctions, articles, and
  prepositions removed. The acronym of an agency must be unique
  and any attempt to create or amend an Agency such that two
  Agencies would have the same acronym is INEFFECTIVE.

I find the statement

It is possible to create an agency such that its acronym contains at 
least one integer symbol (e.g. 0-9)

TRUE.

Rule 2467 sets out the vital attributes of an Agency. Most relevantly, its 
acronym:


An Agency, once created, SHOULD be referred to by the acronym formed from its 
title with conjunctions, articles, and prepositions removed.


and its title:


a) A title, which must be exactly three words, not counting conjunctions, 
articles or prepositions.


The term “word” is not restricted by the rules, and therefore has its common 
definition. Moreover, Agoran convention permits the use of numerals as words. 
See, for example, the identifier of this call for judgement. Therefore, an 
Agency may have a numeral in its title, which, being neither a conjunction, an 
article, or a preposition, would necessarily be used to form its acronym.

It isn’t clear how a numeral should be compressed to form part of an acronym. 
It is conceivable that the first digit of a numeral should be used in place of 
the whole numeral, and this appears to be consistent with the rules regarding 
Agency names and acronyms.

Therefore, it is possible for an Agency’s acronym to contain a digit - an 
integer symbol, as defined.

I find the statement

It is possible to create an agency such that its acronym contains at 
least one non-english alphabetic character (芋, Ñ, Æ).

TRUE.

Rule 2467 requires that the title of an Agency consist of exactly three words:


a) A title, which must be exactly three words, not counting conjunctions, 
articles or prepositions.


It does not require that those words be representable using any dialect of 
English. Russian words, for example, appear perfectly acceptable, and would be 
represented most accurately in the Cyrillic alphabet. Such a word would most 
obviously be abbreviated for the Agency’s acronym by taking its first 
character, which would be a non-english alphabetic character.

It is therefore possible for the acronym of an Agency to contain at least one 
non-english alphabetic character.

I think 3478 is the last one.  Let me know if I missed any.

There's still a batch from January outstanding.   I may offer bounties on

You attempted to call the CFJ as follows:

I took this as a conditional "If I am not a player, I CFJ on the statement".

Tradition is that we allow conditionals (in which case we have to wait for
the outcome of the other CFJ to know if you called one), or if the 
conditional is indeterminate, to treat the statement as having failed.

You could CFJ on whether you called a CFJ :).

Postgres, yes. I can re-host it if someone sends it back to me, and add
history if someone sends a batch of text file versions.

Re: DIS: CFJs

2016-09-19 Thread Kerim Aydin


omd's site has the deep past (as deep as we can go) up until July 2014 (CFJ 
3425)
and incomplete records of a few from July 2015.

Mine picks up with those incomplete records + the very small number that I 
assigned last week (due to inactivity, there were almost no cases in late
2015-2016, and those are on my site.

So we're missing a small slice relative to our history (July 2014-July 2015,
a total of 24 CFJs).

Of course, searching the archives is not particularly easy unless you know
exactly what you're looking for...

Re: DIS: CFJs

The CFJs are as important as the ruleset. The game has three parts. The
rules, their interpretation, and how they're actually used. These are the
interpretations. My point is that we really need some sort of record for
this. The email archive hardly counts.

That seems like a logical short-term solution, though a database would
be nicer. The main problem is that no one wants to take on more
