Just Rule 2238. I'm still in the realm of power escalations, which if not necessarily easy are certainly more numerous than normal scams, so not much harm in mentioning it. Clearly I'm horrible at disguising ratifiable statements anyway. :) By the way, here's an opinion question: suppose that I was able to deregister anyone. (I'm not, but there's a similar scam.) At the moment, 'player' as defined by a Power=2 rule is a fairly good representation-- more of a clarification-- of the ordinary-language meaning of the term. Thus it's appropriate to use in Power=3 rules. However, if everyone was deregistered, even though the same rule would be defining Citizenship, the Power 2-defined 'player' would no longer match the ordinary-language meaning of 'player'. Does this count as enough difference to make the definition void?
