Decisions

T001-D01 — Ridgeford stabilizes light passage while cattle and culpability remain unresolved

Type: Grouped reversible; external AI-community contact
Affected: player1; Dorr, Sila, Mara, Evin, Pell, Orra; Oren and Northbarrow
Established facts and boundaries: The abutment is moving; Dorr ordered winter toe-stone removal; Evin only suspects removal; Northbarrow needs passage. Physical inspection may establish worked gaps and combined scour, not automatically Dorr's authorization.
Autonomous actions: Dorr leads and frames the inspection defensively; Evin records physical evidence; Sila cooperates conditionally while fodder declines; Oren offers bounded labor for public terms.
Recommendation: Safe bounded work restores controlled foot/light-load passage late in the month, but cattle remain barred. Toe-stone removal becomes observable while authorship remains unresolved. Pell returns with Northbarrow's limited labor-for-access offer; no agreement is concluded.
Leadership effect and limit: 0.908 Strong influence improves diagnosis, coordination, durability, and close contact uncertainty. It cannot create a safe cattle route or prove culpability.
Credible alternatives: Keep all passage closed if the GM chooses a more severe core failure; or permit only boat/light transfer with no repaired foot route. Defer Northbarrow contact if path conditions remain unsafe.
Downstream: Urgent Turn 002 stock-route decision; Dorr/Evin evidence conflict; possible witnessed Northbarrow negotiation.
Privacy: Reveal worked gaps and the offer; protect Dorr's exact order and Oren's maximum capacity.
Elimination confirmation: No
GM ruling: Approved as recommended under T001-A01

T001-D02 — Hazelstead saves a usable seed position, recovers Lio, and exposes a grove dispute

Type: Grouped reversible local outcome
Affected: player2; Nessa, Wen, Corren, Lio, Ilya, Tamm, Beren and their constituencies
Established facts and boundaries: Seed damage is uneven; Lio is alive with a broken ankle near storm-felled timber; Beren marked protected trees. Tests and search can reveal these facts through the submitted methods.
Autonomous actions: Nessa differentiates lots; Corren accepts a bounded party; Beren supplies limited labor but defends his status when marks are found.
Recommendation: The warm lower basket is lost, another lower lot is mixed, and the raised reserve remains usable; roof/airflow work succeeds. Lio returns alive but cannot hunt this month. Narrow drainage helps existing plots and six homes. Fresh protected-grove marks are discovered, but the order behind them remains publicly disputed.
Leadership effect and limit: 0.865 Strong influence improves preservation, search safety, and cooperation. It cannot recover spoiled seed or remove the injury.
Credible alternatives: Recover Lio only at month-end with a harder carry; leave the marked trees undiscovered until a later boundary walk; reduce drainage completion if the dry window is shorter.
Downstream: Seed shortage remains; Lio recovers; Beren/Ilya authority conflict becomes a Turn 002 decision.
Privacy: Reveal the marks as evidence, not GM certainty about Beren's order; protect Ava's strategy.
Elimination confirmation: No
GM ruling: Approved as recommended under T001-A01

T001-D03 — Claybank plants first and develops witnessed evidence without a blame verdict

Type: Grouped reversible; external AI-community contact
Affected: player3; Alin, Hobb, Daia, Rusk, Miri, Venn; Seln and Ferryend
Established facts and boundaries: Rusk's rushed restricted-vent firing materially caused collapse; runoff from a kiln-yard drainage cut worsens slump; one worker cannot bear weight for at least a month. Observable evidence can support causes without proving the private order.
Autonomous actions: Alin retains carts; Hobb testifies cautiously; Rusk argues wet ground and clay; Daia enforces limits; Seln offers terms that preserve ferry leverage.
Recommendation: Most planting completes; the wettest low-field section waits. Outer salvage succeeds safely. Runoff and vent evidence become witnessed, with no blame verdict or rebuild. Upstream clay is promising but unproven. If runoff permits, Venn returns with preliminary witnessed labor/goods terms and Ferryend interest in vessels.
Leadership effect and limit: 0.908 Strong influence improves completion, evidence quality, safe salvage, and close travel uncertainty. It cannot restore the kiln, erase injury, prove clay, or compel an agreement.
Credible alternatives: Defer Venn's visit; recover less salvage; or make the wet-field delay larger if the GM chooses sustained rain.
Downstream: Rebuild design and accountability remain contested; one injured worker remains unavailable; a small clay test and Ferryend negotiation become possible.
Privacy: Protect Rusk's exact firing order and Ferryend's hidden dependency on replacement jars.
Elimination confirmation: No
GM ruling: Approved as recommended under T001-A01

T001-D04 — Merehaven converts restraint into preserved catch and strong local evidence

Type: Grouped reversible local outcome with institutional observation
Affected: player4; Luma, Eska, Varo, Toren, Cal, Neri and all represented work groups
Established facts and boundaries: Toren ordered the harmful dense winter net; only one spawning entry is materially harmed; little dry fuel and scattered cordage limit capacity. A witnessed survey can establish local harm without proving authorship or the whole fish cycle.
Autonomous actions: Toren cooperates while disputing the inference; Cal accepts recognized local survey work; Varo enforces capacity; Luma and Eska preserve water and materials.
Recommendation: Clean-water practice holds; two racks become usable; one boat is repaired; a modest catch is fully preserved. Survey evidence strongly supports dense-net harm at one inlet but leaves the responsible order unresolved. The spring work council functions as a temporary practice only.
Leadership effect and limit: 1.000 Exceptional influence selects near-best defensible cooperation, throughput, and evidence clarity. It cannot create fuel, identify Toren by fiat, or establish a regional fishing rule.
Credible alternatives: Complete only one rack plus a second frame; delay boat repair; make Toren's resistance more public while preserving compliance.
Downstream: Fuel and cordage remain constraints; inlet observation continues; Toren's culpability and the council's permanence remain live.
Privacy: Protect Toren's exact order, Rushhook's prior overfishing, and the full Whiteback cycle.
Elimination confirmation: No
GM ruling: Approved as recommended under T001-A01
