ThinMan grabbed two-star's Donkey. Both two-star and Fortunato attempted to grab ThinMan's Donkey. Fortunato sent me his play (about 10 minutes) before he returned from vacation, so I think it fails. This avoids the sticky situation of who would have gotten the Lamb that led to CFJ 364, which never did get a verdict in its jury trial (the only jury trial?). Since two-star was the only one who legaly tried to grab ThinMan's Donkey, and ThinMan had the little Lamb, two-star grabs the Lamb (again!). It is possible that this leads to some sort of infinite loop, with ThinMan grabbing it back instead of getting two-star's Donkey, but I don't think that happened. I do note that, if CFJ 320 is still pertinent, then ThinMan and two-star are both currently in "possession" of the little Lamb. So, my take on the situation is that two-star grabbed the Lamb. ThinMan grabbed two-star's Donkey, thereby eliminating him. As there are only two players remaining in on the GAL, Fortunato and ThinMan are now playing a game of Rock, Paper, Scissors. See Rule 1213 for details. Get your plays in soon boys, cuz this one is for all the marbles. Alternatively, submit your CFJs to Malenkai in an orderly manner... > > > > > > > GAL: > > > > > > > > > > > Fortunato > > > > ThinMan > > > > > > > > Scores: > > > > > > > > Crackfoo 1 (eliminated) > > > > mr cwm 2 (eliminated) > > > > Red Barn 1 (eliminated) > > > > ThinMan 4 > > > > breadbox 1 (eliminated) > > > > Rex Mundi 3 (eliminated) > > > > /dev/joe 3 (eliminated) > > > > Fortunato 3 > > > > two-star 1 (eliminated) ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 2 Jan 1998 00:08:55 -0700 (MST) From: alfvaen@telusplanet.net (Aaron V.

Please note that although CFJ 364 was never decided, the issue that CFJ 364 addressed was, by the later CFJ 376. breadbox ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 2 Jan 1998 13:12:51 -0000 From: "The Gingham Wearer" Subject: Acka: *ping* Today is Friday, the second day of January and the Machine that goes *ping* has gone *ping* today. Since I have been scholar, the Machine has gone *ping* 7 times. Note: Alfvaen is right, last time I had it down as five times but it should have been six. Is it my fault if I can't count?
