Declaration of Victory: Seraphim wins her own Dynasty

Other DoV passed. Failed by card.

I’m a Diety, I’ve won. Check the Combo.

Emperors can declare victory in their own Dynasties apparently, after that massive revision. A chance like this is going to go to the first to use it.

More specifically, once mine was posted, the game was in Hiatus, and so posting the combo did nothing.

against just against the principles of having the Emperor win their own dynasty.

Posting it here too because it’s important: Software doesn’t record it but yes, pokes appeared on the blog sooner, although the only evidence for this are mine and poke’s testimony about it (I dont know if Thunder saw it too). Although I got the timestamp, because I started earlier.

Wouldn’t that constitute a violation of the fair play rule, a la
” A Pactmaker should not deliberately exploit bugs or unexpected behaviours in the software running the game (ExpressionEngine, MediaWiki or the GNDT).”

I don’t refresh constantly to see if someone has posted before me while I’m typing a post.

Most I can do is say when I see the bug happen is just say that I saw it happen.

Helpfully the BlogNomic Twitter feed backs up the posting order, broadcasting Pokes’ Ascension before Cuddlebeam’s. (It gives a ten minute gap between them, but was perhaps only checking the blog every ten minutes. But this does confirm that it was possible at one point in time to look at the blog and see only Pokes’ DoV, at which point the game would have automatically been in Hiatus.)
