From: A. Engels, Temporary Assistant Associate Counsel for Near-nonsense To: All FRC Legal Councel Re: Request I have thought of one good way for Judge Joshua to remain in power; however, it does require the help of an accomplice. Joshua should resign judgeship in favor of his accomplice, then post a Rule. Next the accomplice resigns in favor of Joshua, Joshua declares his own Rule VALID, and waits till as short as possible before the time that there would be only one legal player left, and then resign again in favor of his accomplice. Of course this would fail if a player would post a rule after Joshua had stepped down the second time - it would then have to be judged by his accomplice, and we cannot claim that Joshua 'remains' in power, just that he returns to power. It also has the disadvantage of requiring an accomplice, as well as some tricky timing. >From now on, anyone providing a new method for Judge Joshua to remain in power for another round should also explicitly mention at least one of the disadvantages of the method proposed.
