Interesting how "CFJ 1911-1914 (called Mar 18, 2008): Physical realities supersede the Rules by default." and "CFJ: 3580 Called: 21 Oct 2017: The rules can override reality for game purposes." are around at the same time. (It works, though)
I also massively disagree with CFJ 3580, for the " Agora exists platonically, and so can exist without the rest of reality" thing, for the same reasons that CFJ 3622 gave that judgement. The game relies on our perception and ability to process information and solely exists as an individual experience in each of our minds. It's why we have disagreements, even at times with both sides believing they are each giving the true "platonic" interpretation. Agora isn't run some platonic God-hardware, it's run on us, some silly apes with internet. Perspectivism, perspectivism, perspectivism. Is there some way to challenge past CFJs? Besides the moot thing, which is too late now to do for that. On Mon, Feb 26, 2018 at 4:46 AM, Aris Merchant < thoughtsoflifeandligh...@gmail.com> wrote: > H.
