I believe that the intent to use Agoran jurisdiction must be unambiguous. So, saying "I pledge to ASAP transfer a 7 Crop to you" in ##nomic would probably create an Agoran pledge (assuming B doesn't also have a version of the AAA), and saying "I pledge to ASAP spend C# C# to give you C#" in a-d would also probably create an Agoran pledge, but "I pledge to ASAP spend C# C# to give you C#" in ##nomic would probably have ambiguous jurisdiction (assuming B kept Notes when they "borrowed" our ruleset) and so would fail (unless context made the intended jurisdiction unambiguous).
