Gratuitous arguments: By rule 2577, you can gratuitously revoke coins from yourself (because "revoke" is a synonym for "destroy in the possession of", and coins are destructible). Regulation AM0 has a "CAN and SHALL" for destroying the payment and creating/transferring the purchased asset – the creation is only possible if done simultaneously with a destruction of the correct size. So this case hinges on whether the correct interpretation of the message in question is as a correctly-sized revoke combined with a gratuitous destruction of additional coins, or not.
Fortunately for the judge, it's a little more clear-cut. It *would* hinge on that if I had correctly specified that I was transferring the Justice Card from the Lost and Found to myself; instead, I treated it as if it were new. Unless there is some clause allowing me to grant myself a justice card, we don't have to go down this line of inquiry.
Rule 478 requires actions by announcement to specify the action that's being taken, clearly and unambiguously. I don't think this message can reasonably be interpreted as specifying the action of "discard 578 coins" to that standard – and doing so would be required in order for it to succeed – so I think the whole thing fails.
I'm inclined to agree with you on this point, however. -- Trigon ¸¸.•*¨*• Play AGORA QUEST I’m always happy to become a party to contracts.
