Gratuitous arguments: in the context of the full message, the intent is clearly for the Slave Golem to choose a confusing name and then deregister. True, whitespace is irrelevant, but even collapsing the whitespace, the message naturally reads as the intended interpretation, and makes no sense at all with the unintended one. Additionally, for quoting tricky sections (including punctuation, etc.), it is Agoran custom to use more solid enclosures like {}. Evidence: { I cause Mr. Incredible to change his name to '. I cause ' to deregister. [thus destroying it; Rule 2361's first sentence arguably enforces that Slave Golems are always players, but both Rule 869 and the right to deregister take precedence] Now you can't get me because selecting a confusing nickname is not defined as a Crime, and you can't get em because e's been destroyed. Neener neener. } By the way: Murphy, didn't omd make those arguments? I am not omd.
