Why would you prefer undoing the actions to retroactively legalizing the Pseudoauctions?

Because this is more exact and all of the auctions/games can be redone properly again anyway.

Also, I kind of realized this (then forgot!!!) and then remembered again lol, to do a “aha, Nomic!” just like Kevan did in mideg’s first dynasty. https://wiki.blognomic.com/index.php?title=The_First_Dynasty_of_Mideg

“The roll fell in Kevan’s favour, partly due to his tactically waiting until the sudden death rule had enacted before questioning an illegal (score-affecting) move made by Brendan shortly earlier.”

So yeah. Its:

1) Entirely legitimate, those actions were indeed illegal.
2) It benefits me to point it out, because I’m behind in the auction game, and this allows me to gain advantage without begging for freebies which I really dislike. This is a legitimate “these are consequences of the rules as written”.

A key difference with that action includes “shortly earlier”. By now you could argue that the auctions, although technically illegal, weren’t challenged at the time and have since become a “consensus” gamestate.

The problem I see here is that you are punishing players for an error made by the Commissioner. It isn’t our fault that this didn’t occur, also I see it as problematic that you didn’t point this out when you first saw it. Instead, I propose, we just make them legal auctions or at least delete the players and return the money, but not undo GNDT effects from games or such because that is just too complicated of a mess to unravel. Maybe if you enumerated the ways in which the GNDT must be changed, it would be better.

Also, if this is done, I believe all of the auctions should be reversed as people may have bid differently knowing these auctions were invalid.

“have since become a “consensus” gamestate.”

This is (part) of a huge philosophical point which I’ve brought up at that other post because of what “legality” actually is and the consequence of past and-found-to-be-wrong interpretations. Pretty hard to actually debate this here, because it involves such a larger question.

“or at least delete the players and return the money,”

Yes, this is a consequence of what would happen. Maybe I should make it explicit, really.

Oh well. I won’t put my hand in the fire longer lol , the list of links is there if anyone else wants to use it for a better CfJ.

“also I see it as problematic that you didn’t point this out when you first saw it”

It would be total BS to have to publicly point scam opportunities you want to exploit when you first see them lol. Who would want this.

List of links btw: https://pastebin.com/Rn8KLzt1

You want to undo 10 days worth of auctions?

This has been S/K’d btw

nvm CfJs can’t be S/K’d lol, sorry. Oh well.
