Correct, it's not a report per precedent (grossly negligent and not useful
enough to be a report). I can't, therefore, claim a reward for it.

I did work on referee quite genuinely (which is why I was sad to lose it)
and I never scammed w/ any previous offices (the most recent one was a
spur-of-the-moment idea and I even attempted to award myself 3,000 cards to
punish me for it, and will be carded for pledge-breaking), but yes, I take
your point entirely (and personally don't mind the swearing).

The deputisation was because I have a large quantity of balloons, the
election will soon be completed, and that seemed like a good opportunity to
use the hard-to-use resource for personal gain where usually little can be
found. I agree, though, that perhaps I shouldn't have done it. I tend to
act and speak very fast, which is fine on an internet forum in which
discussion happens, but not fine in a place where speech is also
technically actions.

Despite the horrific disgrace of a report I attempted to file, Herald is
not that hard of a position recordkeeping. Obviously I made a mess of
recordkeeping ADoP but those mistakes are easy to avoid. Herald is an
interesting position, I suppose, for memorializing the history of the game,
so it requires its holder to award titles when something suitably
historical happens. I don't think it's a wide-ranging policy role as
referee is, and I don't think it's scammable.

However I take your point, I do take it. I shouldn't have done it,
probably. I do take your point. I know the way I take this game is less
than serious, which can be at times a slap in the face to those who
recognize the decades-long history of the game with a lot of weight. I
don't mean to shit all over everything, and that's a tough line to navigate
with the other ways that I've played this game.

I've got 13 messages in the last 10 minutes. I dread them, rather.
