However, in context, the obvious meaning of the CFJ statement is "There is a player with the name or nickname 'I'." The statement then becomes "Upon eir recent registration, Kenner Gordon selected the nickname 'I'." I see no reason to interpret eir message in this way. If e had sent either of the following messages: > I registers. > Kenner Gordon, "I", registers. then it might make sense to interpret it this way. However, as it is, the natural reading is for the unquoted word "I" to function as a pronoun referring to the sender of the message. ======================================================================== Judge ais523's Arguments: I judge CFJ 2703 UNDETERMINED. The statement is too vague due to ambiguity to have an obvious single meaning, and UNDETERMINED is appropriate when a statement is too vague to deduce what its truth value is. ========================================================================
