Exceeded Quorum, 6-0. Enacted by JonathanDark.

In the rule “Achievements”, change “The criteria for an Achievement must be met between the moment just before the first Spell is cast during a Duel and the moment just after the last Spell’s Effects are applied during that same Duel.” to

The criteria for an Achievement must be met between the moment just before the first Spell is cast during a Duel and the moment just before the creation of the reply to the duel post specifying which spells were cast. This portion of a Duel is its televised period.

In the description of every Achievement but “Denied!”, change “the current duel” to “the current duel’s televised period”.

Is there an issue with the current wording, or are you just proposing more concise language?

I’m blocking the interpretation where most achievements never take effect because “the end of the current duel” isn’t part of the period where Achievements’ Criteria can be met.

that isn’t how I’ve been interpreting the rules so this doesn’t really seem necessary

If that’s the line you’re taking, I’m CfJing it.

If carrying out a duel is an atomic action then technically no one can earn any achievements because the time in between two steps of an atomic action does not exist. I’m considering making my own CfJ.

@Zack as pointed out on the CFJ Bucky made, I don’t think it matters. Achievements are awarded to Wizards who “met the criteria for that Achievement (according to the spell list for the current duel)” and the spell list for the current duel does not contain anything about the period or atomic action.
