You wrote a report which broke up the paradox when it self-ratified,
and nobody noticed at the time.

Yes, that is in fact exactly what I argue in the judgement to CFJ 3724. :P

I expect D. Margaux meant something like "its outcome, _if resolved now_, would 
be ADOPTED". I imagine e would have resubmitted it with that wording, after 
realising that the initial wording was wrong, if it hadn't become apparent that 
the error in the ADoP report completely ruled out eir Win by Paradox anyway.

Oh, that makes sense. But I'm confused by D. Margaux's CFJ that 8164's
outcome is ADOPTED, if there was no message attempting to resolve the
decision.

Is "outcome" a well-defined property of a decision before it's
resolved? Rule 955 specifies some rules about computing the outcome,
and we could try to apply those rules before it's resolved to compute
a provisional "outcome" (even if the voting period hasn't ended, based
on the ballots cast so far). But Rule 955 also says "The outcome of a
decision is determined when it is resolved", which seems to imply that
the outcome is not determined before it's resolved. If that's true,
Proposal 8164's outcome could not have been ADOPTED, for the simple
reason that nobody had attempted to resolve the decision and so the
outcome must have been undetermined at that point.

It was not published, twg is simply referring jokingly to emself, as e is 
the Assessor.

Yeah, I agree, and the disclaimer is disclaiming something else anyway. I just 
thought I should mention it, since it seems like the sort of thing someone 
might try to use to cast doubt on the judgement. :P

Yes, exactly. So the SPOOKY distribution failed either way, and there is no 
paradox (and will not be even when P8164 is adopted normally).

Well that is a very, very annoying oversight on my part. Nice catch.

I was just writing a note to say I'd spotted the Feb 24th ADoP report's
ratification of D. Margaux as Prime Minister as well!

You don't have to worry about the Disclaimer in the ADoP's report -
disclaimers are used all the time to ratify false things, under the guidance
of R2202 you're *supposed* to use disclaimers when reporting false things
for the purpose of ratification, and this explicitly does not stop
ratification.

Proposal 8164 will not undo the self-ratification.  It will retroactively
determine that the ADoP's Report was wrong in a different way, but the
report will have still have self-ratified as it was written.
