1266 (pt) G. 1. That of the following two messages, http://www.escribe.com/games/agora-business/m2253.html and http://www.escribe.com/games/agora-business/m2255.html exactly ONE legally registered Goethe as a player in the game of Agora. The other one is either incorrect or superfluous. 2. That at a time 1 minute immediately BEFORE the SEND date listed in Goethe's e-mail header for m2253, normalized to GMT as Feb 5 0:22:49 (anecdotal evidence available on request), Goethe unambiguously was NOT a player. 3. That at a time 1 minute immediately AFTER the latest distribution date of m2255 listed in e-scribe, normalized to GMT as Feb 5 as 1:19:24, Goethe unambiguously WAS a player. 4. That, from these time indications, rounding to the minute, Goethe's Window of Ambiguity of Status as Player (GWASP) extends ABSOLUTELY NO LONGER than between GMT 0:21:00 and GMT 1:21:00 on Feb 5, 2001. 5. That Goethe's instant of becoming a player lies unambiguously within es GWASP. 5. While judgements on timestamps or the legality of the first message (c.f. http://www.escribe.com/games/agora-official/m967.html) may narrow the extent of this GWASP, no judgement may extend it. 6. Therefore, irrespective of the EXACT moment of Goethe's registration, and independent of any decisions further refining the exact moment, any game events, payments or adjustments, mandated by the rules to occur to Goethe's status, which must happen WITHIN a time period following registration, must use a registration date for Goethe NO LATER THAN 1:21:00 Feb. 5, 2001 in determining time of occurrence. 7. Likewise, any game events, payments, or adjustments mandated by the rules to occur a certain time AFTER Goethe's registration must use a registration date for Goethe NO EARLIER THAN 0:21:00 Feb. 5, 2001 in determining its time of occurrence.
