@Scuba_Ben

… I don’t see the rules changes by Annie or shijinn. On preview, I see that Annie is objecting to making this an Agoran protectorate. AOP2: I see Annie changed rule 8. Her two changes and shijinn’s post (I still haven’t found the change) are in violation of rule 11. Do I have to implement a dispute resolution system? …

hey i was just trying not to run afoul of Annie’s rule 8! ( and to point out the folly of not making new or changed rules conspicuous)

[Scuba_Ben]

CFJ: Full Metal Lotus failed to comply with rule 11 for the move in post 49.
