Title: Ways to Win

Each of the following is a sufficient, but not necessary, condition for a player to win the game:

1. The player is the only active player for a period of no less than 30 days.

2. The player is able to demonstrate a paradox in the rules of the game. This means that the rules both require and prohibit a particular action on the player's part. If there is a dispute as to the legitimacy of the paradox, a vote will be taken and a 60% supermajority required in the player's favor in order to ensure a win.

Hello,

I love this paradox idea but I think we should create a better system of judgement before this is passed. Perhaps we should create a rule to deal with arguments? A judge or election of some sort that could be called anytime.

Yeah, I guess some kind of dispute resolution needs to be in place. I tend to disfavor anything which uses a single judge to make a decision. A majority-based system would work okay, but it's also not that interesting -- it would be neat to have something a little more convoluted so it can be manipulated.
