I approve this signature suggestion, transferring 3 coins from SEAMSTRESS
to myself.
For the record, I would argue that this doesn't really do anything.
Someone expressing a general sentiment about a game action does not cause
or oblige em to consent to anything.

I create the following contract, with myself as the sole party: { Gaelan
CAN act on Trigon’s behalf to transfer three coins to Gaelan. Upon Gaelan
doing so, this contract is destroyed. }
I cause Trigon to become a party to the above contract.
I act on Trigon’s behalf to transfer three coins to Gaelan, destroying the
contract.
==========================================================================
SEAMSTRESS states that Trigon SHALL NOT deny a suggestion unless it
breaks one of the following:
1. The suggestion includes swear words.
2. The suggestion includes serious, intentional insult to a person.
3. The suggestion treats real-world and/or in-game issues lightly.
4. The suggestion is otherwise in poor taste.
5. The suggestion contains a sentence that could be interpreted as a
game action.
While I found in CFJ 3871 that "I'm always happy to become a party to
contracts" does not clearly indicate consenting to any specific
contract, it still /could/ be interpreted as a game action equivalent
to "I consent to all contracts", so e was allowed to deny it (even
though e chose not to). FALSE.
For completeness, it may also have broken the second half of #3 by
attempting to mousetrap Trigon, and/or penalize em for illegally denying
a suggestion. The first half of #3 is clearly inapplicable, as are #1,
#2, and #4.
I award myself Blue Glitter (11 coins per latest weekly Tailor report).
