…  
In the meantime, either **phi** can sign off on ‘Meeko Offer S14’, or when **Arizona** approves the bylaw her earlier confirmation will become binding on **phi/Teach**

(Yes, I know I’m making things seem more complicated than they could be.)  
[/QUOTE]

I’ll sign off on Meeko Offer S14.

oh, by the way, **ArizonaTeach** , apparently the rules we shared with each other when we merged are slightly off, I don’t know if **chrisk** PMed you, but apparently its true.

Yes they are. Big time. And I’m a he, incidentally.

That changes everything, unfortunately. :rolleyes:

Rule 17 should say “electrum,” not gold.

I’m not entirely sure how to react to that, since you were operating under the assumption that 17 said gold. I should have caught it, yeah, but I was just looking at the merged rule set we were sent and operating under the assumption that, ya know, **chrisk** wasn’t gonna royally screw us!

Ah well, it’s just a game, but yeah, we’re out of the running entirely after what was now a disastrous trade with **Oredigger**.

I don’t know what I want to do now, to be honest! My inclination, actually, is to sell my shares to you, **phi** for 1 copper piece, in order to guarantee you a win!

That’s interesting, yeah. I get the funny feeling there’s some kind of coinage limitation rule out there, though.

What if I add 2 gold to the offer then?
