You're right, the rules are strangely different as to deregistration. Probably because it has consequences by barring you from registering for a while. I think when playing a game, the form "I'll do X" is acceptable as "I do X". eg: "I'll go to attacks" is always interpreted as "I go to attacks" in the card game I have played, and is a normal form.
I'm only arguing this because if CB is deregistering out of embarrassment it is unlikely that they will check their nomic-using email for a while, and waiting two months isn't optimal to deregister em. The pledge theory isn't bad either.
