Proposal: Proving the Rule [Core]
Self-killed. Failed by Kevan.

To the bullet list in Fair Play, add:-
* A Broker should not deliberately and knowingly break a rule.
As raised in the Uphold discussion: should a player be able to deliberately take an illegal action, and expect others to play on from that, on the grounds that a fix is pending that seems very likely to retroactively make their action legal? Or should they wait for the action to become legal before taking it?
I thought obeying the rules at all times was a given from “This is the Ruleset for BlogNomic; all Brokers shall obey it.”, but maybe we should be more explicit about what that means. Or see what fun can be had on the forking paths of “may claim to have taken an illegal action if it seems likely to become retroactively legal in the future” if the majority see it that way.
Clucky: he/him
If someone somehow passes a rule that idles everyone else and prevents them from unidling, I think its perfectly fine for brokers to deliberately and knowingly break that rule in order to get a CfJ passed which fixes things.
