OFF: [Splat Market] Order Book
The following orders (as defined by the Splat Market contract) exist: Victory Cards: 1x buy @ 20 coins (nix) 3x buy @ 200 coins (Falsifian) * Decipoints (Obstructive Pooling): 25x buy @ 2 coins (nix) 70x buy @ 8 coins (Falsifian) * Starred orders are active. (Technically, the most recent of the orders represented by the starred line is active.) Some tips on using the Splat Market: - "buy" and "sell" are from the perspective of the order's owner, so if someone has a buy order for victory cards, that means e wants to buy victory cards, and vice versa - To create orders: "I create 5 buy orders for pendants at at 50 coins." - To use an order: "I execute 5 of Gaelan's buy orders for pendants at 50 coins." (If you're paranoid, you could add something like "if doing so would cause me to gain 5 pendants".) - You can only use active (starred) orders; that is, you can't use orders that are newer or worse deals (for you) until you've used up the older, better deals.

OFF: [Arbitor] CFJ 3904 Assigned to ATMunn
The below CFJ is 3904. I assign it to ATMunn. status: https://faculty.washington.edu/kerim/nomic/cases/#3904 === CFJ 3904 === An amendment that results in no net change of text in a rule is a rulechange, and the Rulekeepor shall keep a record of it. == Caller:Jason Judge: ATMunn == History: Called by Jason: 18 Apr 2021 19:07:19 Assigned to ATMunn: [now] == Caller's Evidence: Rule 105/22 (Power=3) Rule Changes When the rules provide that an instrument takes effect, it can generally: [snip] 4. amend the text of a rule. [snip] A rule change is any effect that falls into the above classes. Rule changes always occur sequentially, never simultaneously. Rule 1681/23 (Power=1) The Logical Rulesets [Excerpt] Whenever a rule is changed in any way, the Rulekeepor SHALL record and thereafter maintain a reasonably accurate historical annotation to the rule indicating: 1. The type of change. 2. The date on which the change took effect. 3. The mechanism that specified the change. 4. If the rule was changed due to a proposal, then that proposal's ID number, author, and coauthor(s) (if any). Caller's Arguments: What it means to "amend" something is not explicitly defined in the rules, so it has its common language meaning. Definitions of "amendment": Google: "a minor change or addition designed to improve a text, piece of legislation, etc." Merriam-Webster online: (1a): "the process of altering or amending a law or document (such as a constitution) by parliamentary or constitutional procedure" (1b): "an alteration proposed or effected by this process" Dictionary.com: "an alteration of or addition to a motion, bill, constitution, etc." These all seem to suggest that an "amendment" requires something to actually change. Additionally, even if an amendment that results in no change is a rule change, that does not imply that the Rulekeepor shall keep a record of it. E is required to record "Whenever a rule is changed in any way", not whenever there is a rule change. ==
OFF: [CotC] CFJ 3903 Judged TRUE by G.
status: https://faculty.washington.edu/kerim/nomic/cases/#3903 (This document is informational only and contains no game actions). === CFJ 3903 === R. Lee's votes on the referendums on proposals 8549 and 8552-8555 were clearly specified. == Caller:Jason Judge: G. Judgement: TRUE == History: Called by Jason: 29 Mar 2021 04:08:30 Assigned to G.: 04 Apr 2021 00:32:16 Judged TRUE by G.:07 Apr 2021 18:47:01 == Caller's arguments: On the relevant decisions, R. Lee voted "I vote AGAINST all agoran decisions that add overall text to the ruleset, and PRESENT on the rest." This is clearly an attempted conditional vote. The question is whether it is clearly specified under Rule 2127. Per Rule 2127, they are clearly specified if and only if they were determinate at the end of the voting period, and they are determinate if the values can be "reasonably determined [...] from information reasonably available" (the other possibilities clearly do not apply). The information that this depends on is certainly "reasonably available", as it is just the text of the proposals as well as the text of the rules (assuming we are correct in our understanding of the text of the rules, which is hopefully the case). This means that this case depends on whether the vote can be "reasonably determined" from that information. In general, evaluating proposals to determine whether they add or remove text is arguably not "reasonably determined", as it involves evaluating potentially arbitrary text. However, real distributions do not contain proposals with arbitrary text, and the proposals in this specific distribution are, individually, relatively easy to count characters added/removed on. Perhaps that's sufficient for this specific case to be considered "reasonable effort", but that's potentially opening a can of worms for large, perhaps unreasonable, workloads for the Assessor. Caller's evidence: On Wed, Mar 24, 2021 at 5:16 PM N. S. via agora-business wrote: > > I vote AGAINST all agoran decisions that add overall text to the ruleset, > and PRESENT on the rest. Rule 2127/11 (Power=3) Conditional Votes A conditional vote on an Agoran decision is a vote which indicates a vote based on some condition(s). A conditional vote is evaluated at the end of the voting period and, rules to the contrary notwithstanding, is clearly specified if and only if the value of the condition(s) is/are determinate at the end of the voting period. If the conditional is clearly specified, and evaluates to a valid vote, it is counted as that vote; otherwise, it is counted as PRESENT. Any vote which is clearly expressed as a conditional, e.g. "FOR if is true, AGAINST otherwise", is a valid conditional vote that evaluates as specified. A vote endorsing another person is equivalent to a conditional vote evaluating to the vote specified in that person's valid ballot on the decision, if any. For an instant runoff decision, a vote consisting of a list, one or more entries of which are valid conditional votes, and the remaining entries of which are valid options, is a valid conditional vote. Such a vote is evaluated by evaluating each conditional entry to a list of votes (or an empty list, if it evaluates to PRESENT either directly or indirectly), and then concatenating those lists with the specified valid options in the order they occurred in the original vote. Rule 2518/0 (Power=3) 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, otherwise it is determinate. -- Judge G.'s Arguments: In the past, we've accepted many complicated conditionals. In principle, I don't see why "does this specified proposal add text to ruleset" is more complicated or error-prone than, say "I vote for the candidate who transfers me the most coins" in terms of difficulty to the vote collector. For the latter, for example, the vote collector would need to track any coin transfer, look at recent reports to know if the transfers succeeded, and maybe even (if the transfers had previous transfer dependencies) track more. And errors would be made. Yet I suspect we would accept such a conditional without thinking
