I like this your implementation:
[from the SLR archives:
* Caption: Hot Potato
Quota: 1
Elements: Persistent
Exploit: Transfer this Card to another entity. If that entity
does not post to a Public Forum the phrase "Hot Potato"
within 48 hours, they are guilty of the Class 1 Infraction
of Dropping the Potato which you are authorized to Report.

It's trivial to add a sentence "the holder of a millstone cannot...X"
outside the definition of the exploit. (I'm not saying the millstone
is the best way, but this part isn't an issue).
