-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Clerk's Docket Date of this report: Sun 2 Nov 08 Date of last report: Thu 30 Oct 08 (All times are UTC) Errata ------ CFJ 2223 is not an equity case because it failed to clearly identify a contract to the players in general (CFJ 2244), thus it is probably not a case at all. (TODO: remove from DB unless a fresh dispute is raised before November 13) Quanta ------ The effectiveness of the retraction of CFJ 2245 is disputed. (See CFJ 2246.)

Note that where contracts were created without specifying names, I have assigned names to them to refer to them more easily; such names are not normative. I have also not tracked null contracts created as the result of equity cases, as such contracts are not public (therefore do not need to be tracked) and would merely clog up the report.

The name of this contest is "The Agoran Agricultural Association". This is a public contract. 2. The Secretary of Agriculture (hereafter SoA) is responsible for maintaining this contract. If this contract is a contest, the SoA is its Contestmaster. Initially, the SoA is BobTHJ. 3. Any player may become party to this agreement by announcement. Parties to this agreement are known as Farmers. As soon as possible after a first-class player becomes party to this agreement for the first time the SoA shall create a Digit Ranch and three Water Rights Vouchers in their possession. Any Farmer may cease to be party to this agreement by announcement. Any Land or Crops in eir possession are destroyed. Any Farmer CAN cause another Farmer to cease to be a Farmer without objection. 4. Each type of Crop is a currency. Ownership of Crops is restricted to Farmers. There are eleven types of Crops, represented by the numbers 0 through 9 and X (10). The SoA is the recordkeeper of Crops. 5. A Farmer CAN spend, for each digit of a number's canonical decimal representation, either a Crop of the corresponding type or an X crop to Harvest that number, when permitted by this contract. A Farmer CANNOT Harvest a number if e does not possess the required Crops to spend. 6. A Farmer CANNOT Harvest a number unless e specifies exactly one of the following effects: a. During the voting period of a Proposal, a Farmer CAN once Harvest the ID number of that proposal. As soon as possible after doing so, the SoA shall award that Farmer 2 Point if the proposal was Ordinary, or 4 points if it was Democratic. b. Within one week after an ID number is assigned to a CFJ, a Farmer CAN once Harvest the ID number of that CFJ. Upon doing so, two Water Rights Vouchers are created in that Farmer's possession c. Within one week after a new rule is added to the ruleset, a Farmer CAN once Harvest the ID number of that rule. As soon as possible after doing so, the SoA shall create a Land of a random type in that Farmer's possession. d. Within one week after an existing rule is amended, a Farmer CAN once Harvest the ID number of that rule. As soon as possible after doing so, the SoA shall create floor(P) Crops of random types in that Farmer's possession, where P is the power of that rule. e. Within one week after a rule is repealed from the ruleset, a Farmer CAN once Harvest the ID number of that rule and specify another Farmer. As soon as possible after doing so the SoA shall destroy a random Land in the specified Farmer's possession. f. A Farmer CAN Harvest the number 1234567890 and specify another Farmer. As soon as possible after doing so the SoA shall select a random land owned by the specified Farmer and give it to the harvesting Farmer. 7. Land is a class of non-fungible assets. Ownership of Land is restricted to Farmers. Each Land possesses a name. The SoA is the recordkeeper of Land. 8. A Digit Ranch is a type of Land. Seed is a Digit Ranch switch with a range of the integers from 0 to 9 inclusive. The Seed of a Digit Ranch is flipped to a random value upon its creation, and thereafter CAN NOT be changed. At the beginning of each week, each Digit Ranch creates one Crop of the type corresponding to its Seed in the ownership of its owner. 9. A Mill is a type of Land. Operator is a Mill switch with values of + (addition), - (subtraction), * (multiplication) and / (division). The Operator of a Mill is flipped to a random value upon its creation, and thereafter CAN NOT be changed. A player may destroy two Crops e owns and specify a Mill e owns which is not In Production by announcement. E then forms a mathematical expression using the values of those two crops and the value of the Mill's Operator exactly once each, and e evaluates the expression over the finite field of integers modulo 11. If the result is a number, e gains one Crop of the corresponding type. That Mill is then In Production. At the beginning of each week, each Mill which is In Production ceases to be so. 10. Water Rights Vouchers are a currency. Ownership of Water Rights Vouchers is restricted to Farmers. The SoA is the recordkeeper of Water Rights Vouchers. 12. Once per week, a Farmer may attempt to purchase a new Land by announcing the type of Land e wishes to purchase. As soon as possible after such an announcement, if it is permitted for em to do so, the SoA shall revoke 3 Points from that Farmer and then create a Land of the specified type in that Farmer's possession. 13. As soon as possible after the beginning of each month, for each Farmer, the SoA shall destroy a number of Water Rights Vouchers in that Farmer's possession equal to the number of Digit Ranches that Farmer possesses. If the Farmer does not possess enough Water Rights Vouchers to meet this requirement, the SoA shall destroy a number of random Lands in that Farmer's possession equal to the difference. 14. This contract CAN be amended by any Farmer without three objections. 15. Creating proposals or CFJs for the clear and primary purpose of Harvesting the ID numbers assigned is a breach of this contract. 16. The Federal Subsidy is an integer value. At the end of any week in which the AAA contract did not attempt to award points the Federal Subsidy is incremented by 1. At the end of any week in which the AAA contract attempted to award at least ten points the Federal Subsidy is decremented by 1. At the end of any week in which the AAA contract attempted to award at least 20 points the Federal Subsidy is decremented by an additional 1. At the end of any week in which one or more Players won Agora by accumulating points the Federal Subsidy is decreased by 3. Once each week, a first-class farmer who at the beginning of that week owned fewer lands than the Federal Subsidy may 'request subsidization' by announcement. As soon as possible after such an announcement the SoA shall create a random type of land and a Water Rights Voucher in the possession of that Farmer. }}} >>> Name: Fantasy Rules Contest: true Publicity: public Pledge: false Parties: BobTHJ, Iammars, Murphy, pikhq, root, Quazie, Sir Toby, ais523 Contestmaster: root Text: {{{ 1) The name of this public contract is the Fantasy Rules Contest. 2) The purpose of this contract is to be a contest that encourages participation in the Fantasy Rules Committee, whose status is available at http://groups.google.com/group/frc-play/ 3) Any player CAN become a member of this contract by announcement.

A party CAN NOT take an action that would cause the VP of any party to be reduced below zero. The Broker is the recordkeeper of VP. 3. At any time a party CAN post a Sell Ticket by announcement. A Sell Ticket must include: * A description of an action that the party is able to take. * A cost in VP If it becomes impossible for the party to perform the specified action, the Sell Ticket expires and ceases to exist. 4. Any party CAN fill an existing Sell Ticket by announcement. When e does so, a number of VP equal to that Sell Ticket's specified cost is transferred to the party who posted the Sell Ticket.The party who posted the Sell Ticket is then obligated to take the action described in the Sell Ticket as soon as possible. However, if for any reason during the 48 hours following the filling of a Sell Ticket it becomes impossible for the party who posted the Sell Ticket to perform the specified action then e is released from such obligation.

A Buy Ticket must include: * A description of an action * A cost in one or more currencies (typically VP), which may be conditional or variable as long as it can be determined with certainty when that ticket is filled * Optionally, a set of target parties. If not specified, this defaults to the set of all parties to the Vote Market agreement. Only parties designated as targets may fill a ticket. A Buy Ticket expires and ceases to exist if it becomes impossible for any party to perform the specified action. 6. Any party CAN fill an existing Buy Ticket by announcement. When e does so a number of VP equal to that Buy Ticket's specified cost is transferred to the filling party.

The Grace Period is a number of days determined by a person's status within the contract Airstrip One and is determined as follows: Marine - 45 days Pilot - 75 days Captain - 90 days Other or undetermined - 60 days When the average VP of a first-class party is less than 50 over the course of the most recent period of days equal to their Grace Period they are Indebted. An Indebted active player MUST for each distribution of proposals vote SELL (2VP) on at least half of those proposals. A Slave is an Indebted party who is either inactive or not a player at the time of their becoming Indebted, or else becomes inactive or not a player while Indebted. Registering or ceasing to be inactive does not cause a party to cease to be a Slave, but ceasing to be Indebted does. Any non-Indebted party may act on behalf of a Slave to register, become active, and/or cast a vote of SELL (2VP) on an Agoran decision. Any party may cease to be a Slave by announcement. 11.

If the specified action fails, and all attempts to successfully perform the action fail within a 24 hour period of time, the Prize becomes Wrapped again, and the Birthday Boy may no longer act on the WheelKeepor's behalf. 5. If a Prize has been in existence for 1 Month, the WheelKeepor may Unwrap it by announcement. If a Prize is unwrapped in this manner, the WheelKeepor does not incur any obligation. 6. There exists a list, as a part of this pledge, to be known as the Prize wheel. This list contains descriptions for Prizes that may be awarded. The Prize wheel has two states, ON and OFF. If at any time the Prize Wheel contains less than 5 descriptions, its state becomes OFF. The WheelKeepor may change the state of the Prize Wheel by announcement. 7. If a player attempts to Spin the Prize Wheel while the Prize Wheel is OFF then the spin becomes a Pending spin and no Prize is selected until its functionality is changed back to ON. 8. If there exists an open Sell ticket, posted by The WheelKeepor, in the Vote Market for a chance to "Spin the Prize Wheel", and that ticket is filled by a person (known as the spinner), the WheelKeepor will chose a random description from the Prize Wheel, and create a Wrapped prize of that type in the spinner's possession. Prizes may only be created in this fashion. When a Prize is created in this fashion, the description of that Prize is removed from the Prize Wheel. 9. If the WheelKeepor has already voted on a proposal or objected/supported to a dependant action as a result of a player unwrapping a Prize, it is impossible for any player to Unwrap a Prize indicating that the WheelKeepor vote in a different manner on that proposal or object/support that same action. The WheelKeepor shall not change their vote on a proposal, or their objection/support, if E is obligated to perform that action due to the unwrapping of a Prize. 10. The WheelKeepor may add to the Prize Wheel by announcement. The WheelKeepor may make other changes to this pledge without 3 objections. The WheelKeepor may terminate this pledge by announcement if there are no Wrapped Prizes and no Pending Spins of the Prize Wheel. [[Comment by the Notary: information about the Prize Wheel is not tracked in this report, because can change frequently and is not part of a public contract]] }}} >>> Name: equation of CFJ 2038 Contest: false Publicity: private Pledge: false Parties: BobTHJ, ihope, ehird Contestmaster: none Text: {{{ For the purpose of this equation, "ehird", "Protection Racket", and terms defined by the Protection Racket refer to the entities known by those names on or about June 24, 2008.
