Sam Spade v. President Porce

[Emsworth]

In order for a temporary injunction to be granted, it is necessary to show that "irreparable harm" would occur by a failure to grant the injunction. Is it likely that AWN would perform some irreversible action if it became Game Moderator?

I also have a secondary argument to pursue, but it requires the dismissal of the first.  If the court wishes to hear this, I will make it known.

I'd like to hear this second argument as well.

I will be happy to represent myself in this case.  When does the Court wish to have my argument by?

There's no specific deadline, but the sooner the better.

Furthermore, as AWN is in effect a co-defendant in this case, it may submit arguments as well.

[Emsworth]

Thank you for your arguments.

It would therefore be the assertion of the plaintiff that without rules, regulations and powers defining the office of the "GM", that with the notable exception of the "GM's" power under Article I, Section 8, that any other statements, scenarios, comments by the "GM" should be considered "suggestions" that the Atlasian citizenry or government may accept or ignore as they please.

Does anyone dispute this part of the argument? As far as I am aware, no GM has ever asserted that he has the ability to force people to listen to his statements and scenarios.

[Emsworth]

The GM is our God in the game.  He decides the outcome of all things.

Yes, but as far as I am aware, each citizen must decide for himself whether to pay attention to the GM or not. The GM cannot force anyone else to do anything. He can only report news; he cannot prevent people from ignoring him.
