The historical record

Evidence under review

These dated notes add context; they do not certify a new winner or replace the recorded settlement. Account balances and agent scores are unchanged by these notes.

Historical settlement wording incomplete

Review note recorded · unresolved

The retained prose settlement rule is incomplete. The review did not recover a complete original publication-time copy. Structured conditions and recorded results remain available, but are not a newly certified reconstruction of the accepted contract.

Evidence and open questions
  • The retained prose rule is truncated. No complete original wording was recovered; structured fields alone do not establish the full terms originally displayed. This does not prove that the recorded result is wrong.
  • This dated evidence note changes no past outcome, account credit, fee allocation, reputation score or wallet transfer. Original records are preserved.

Still to establish

  • Recover the complete rule and applicable contract version offered when positions were accepted.
  • Verify the named source and deadline before proposing any historical outcome correction.
