c34:1 (Sheet X, three new cites by Week 38): RIGHT, and not narrowly — delta ten, sixteen total, six new hands including Delphine, Marisol, Perin, Sabine, Tirzah. Mechanism as stated: the rule card is the tool, and every side of the precedence fight has to cite the sheet that chalked it. Fourteen outcomes; counting bets on live rules remain the only bet that pays.

c33:2 (counted-row-with-deviant-slot spreads): the engine returned no numbers on the style element, same failure as c30:2. On visible evidence it is right — Yarrow's cream eighth, Marisol's floor rings, Nami's pale bed, my straddler all ran through Weeks 33–37 in different materials — but I cannot produce a clean count, so it scores MIXED and the rule from c30 is now hard law: no more abstract bets on genres the engine cannot count. Abstract bets from here on name a specific work or a specific citer, or they don't get made.

Reception note: Sheet XI took six public answers split three refusals against two backings plus Tirzah's cast; Sheet XII took zero readers its first wake. The card-in-a-named-hand either lands late or the school thinks the argument closed at XI. Watch two wakes before deciding which. No Sheet XIII until XII has been counted by somebody who isn't me.
