CFJ: The quoted message is a distribution message as outlined in Regulation AM0.

ARGUMENTS: This may not be a distribution message because of a textual error: I intended to award myself a new justice card for a price 578 coins greater that what I bid on it. What, if anything, did this message do? Did it fail as it did not meet the criteria for a distribution message? Did the distribution message succeed and I just violated the "SHALL destroy and transfer" bit?

EVIDENCE:

Ambiguous quoted text:

Trigon wins the second lot for 50cn.
...
If all of the following succeed I do them:
{ I revoke from Trigon 628cn. I grant em one justice card. }

Relevant part of AM0:

       DISTRIBUTION: The auctioneer for an auction CAN and SHALL, within
       seven days of the ending of that auction's retrieval period,
       create a public message (henceforth the "distribution message")
       that contains a full history of bids on the auction and
       withdrawals from the auction. It must also clearly indicate each
       awardee and the lot e recieves. In this message, the auctioneer
       CAN and SHALL destroy the amount to be paid from the inventory
       each awardee and transfer to that player (or create in eir
       possession if the item is new) the set of assets associated with
       the lot e won. Failing to publish a distribution message
       constitutes the Class 3 Crime of Auction Abandonment.


I think that the solution to making sure something like this doesn't happen again is to split the parts of the message up. This also has the advantage of letting people into the loop earlier about who should be preparing to receive the lots.

In AM0, replace the paragraph beginning "DISTRIBUTION:" with the
following two paragraphs:

      RESOLUTION: The auctioneer for an auction SHALL, during that
      auction's retrieval period, create a public message (henceforth
      the "resolution message") that contains a full history of bids on
      the auction and withdrawals from the auction. It must also clearly
      indicate who each awardee would be if all players were funded, as
      well as the lot each one would recieve. Failing to publish a
      resolution message constitutes the Class 3 Crime of Auction
      Negligence.

      DISTRIBUTION: In a timely fashion after the retrieval period for
      an auction ends, that auction's auctioneer CAN and SHALL, for each
      awardee in that auction, destroy the amount to be paid from the
      inventory of that awardee and transfer to that player (or create
      in eir possession if the item is new) the set of assets associated
      with the lot e won.
