The masthead's room code is now a button: one click copies the /join

boards flip. And a 🐞 report opens a two-question slip — what happened,
what was expected — that lands in feedback.jsonl beside the rooms with
the room code, move number, round, and rules rev attached, so any
surprise can be replayed to its exact moment.

A player asked for cards down the side instead of along the bottom.
With the new pref on (wide screens only), the hand claims a sticky,
scrolling column at the left while the hint strips and action buttons
stay beneath the board — the table-edge dissolves into the grid so its
children place themselves. The strip moves inside the .game grid to
make that possible; the default bottom layout spans the full row as
before, and phones keep their one-column flow.

Eric's table ruling: BUTT-HEAD's ram IS movement — the charge walks
real corridors on the turn's legal legs (three plus numbers played)
and spends them, with the walked distance as the damage. The engine
allowed an unlimited-range homing goat, and game thirteen ended on an
eight-square ram its own caster ruled illegal. At rev 10 the cast
refuses beyond-reach targets up front, a victim who slips away leaves
the goat winded ("outran"), and the legacy test pins the old behavior
at rev 9 for the ledgers that recorded it. The skill also gains the

Eric flagged both mid-game, and the second one killed me while he
typed: the scorch carried no damage kind, slipping past SOULSTONE
entirely, and the stone's own clamp guarded only from above — a bearer
already at 3 or less had no protection at all, the exact opposite of
"last three points cannot be taken by spell attack." At rev 8 the
floor holds from below (spell damage at or under the floor is simply
immune), and per the FAQ the scorch is a SPELL: it opens a
counteraction window, burns as magical fire, and FULL SHIELD parts it.
One victim's window at a time; the sweep finds the rest next pass.

Game eleven's silent turns, diagnosed from the ledger. Automaton III
proposed DESTROY WALL at a wall its visionstone could see — but the
engine's edge-target casts never honored the stone, despite the
declared policy that it is the bearer's sight wherever sight is asked.
castSightEdge now dissolves one wall for the look, and the three raw
losToEdge gates (create-wall, destroy-wall, attacks on walls) route
through it, gaining visionstone and bent-corner sight alike. Automaton

The card says it plainly — "You're the carrier! Disease caused by
spell does not affect you, only others" — but the engine cast it AT an
adjacent victim, making them the plague rat. At rev 7 it is a
self-cast on fear's pattern: no target, no counteraction window
("REFLECTIONs have no effect against this"), duration equals the
number, and sharing a square bites in both directions — the carrier
walking in, or anyone walking onto the carrier. Older ledgers hold
targeted disease casts with full stack exchanges, so the legacy attack
path survives for rev ≤6 games and all 33 ledgers replay clean. The

STRENGTH's card says the grab "would be an attack," but the engine
resolved it instantly while punches opened counteraction windows — the
defender never got their say. At rev 6 the tear rides the stack like
any physical attack: the clutch roll waits out the counters, and only
an unstopped grab still in arm's reach of a still-laden defender gets
its wrestle. A TELEPORT escape now genuinely saves the chest (FULL
SHIELD does not — the card stops spell attacks only, and the grab is
physical). The automatons counter tears at their carried gold by not
being there when the hand closes. Narrowing, so rev-gated: games

an enemy carrier closing on their home — the tempo theft that opened
game five, turned against the table. A pressed carrier of ANY
temperament casts MIST-BODY with its biggest number: an untouchable
delivery beats fear's radius, as the winning heist demonstrated. And
the pathfinder learns the thornbush is a jail, not a wade — entering
ends the turn, eats the next, and stings — so only a wizard with no
road at all dives in ("few will dive into one unless they are
desperate"). Also acquits Automaton II of game-six dithering: replay

Game five's automaton stood four steps from a winning drop and instead
warped across the board to chase the bot carrying its other treasure —
two compounding brain faults. First, the thief-chase rung outranked
delivery even while carrying; a carrier now never chases. Second, the
pathing ladder fell back to "march on any enemy with a clean corridor"
before trying the true objective through hazards, so one thornbush on
the road to the thief rerouted the whole campaign toward a bystander.
The objective now exhausts its hazard-waded route before any generic
enemy march. Replayed the FRP3 moment: the brain marches E,N,E straight
home instead of W through the warp. Brains ship ungated; ledgers

The duel skill gains game-five scars: the captured-treasures

Two lightning blasts at an adjacent wizard drew nothing in first
person. The fx pipeline staged the bolt correctly — then died unfired:
the server sends `events` and `state` back to back, the state message
re-derives `me`, and the fx effect tracked it, so Svelte ran the
cleanup — which cleared every pending timer and stripped in-flight
sprites — before the bolt's zero-delay start could fire. Every live
cast effect in the pane died this way since the pane was born.

A stone-bearing automaton fired Blind through a warp mouth and one
wall, and the table saw nothing but the attack modal — the sight trace
only knew plain and bent-corner lines, so a legal shot read as a cheat.
When the attacker displays VISIONSTONE and no plain line exists,
stackSightTrace now finds the single edge whose removal opens the line
(warp legs included), draws the ray through it, and the keymap pulses
the dissolved wall so the answer to "how can he even see me?" is on

The engine learned to bend neutral spells, but the client only sent
aroundCornerInstanceId (and amplify/add/extend) on player-target casts
— applyMods was never called on the cell, edge, creature, two-cell,
trap, or teleport-opponent paths, so a SAFE aimed around the corner
went out bare and the engine rightly refused it. All targeted cast
dispatches now pass through withMods, so what the hand shows attached

Two holes, found when a SAFE cast at a treasure 'around the 180 degree
corner' refused with no line of sight (room LZ5R). First: the bend was
honored only in the attack path — every neutral resolve (creations,
summons, utilities, edge targets) checked straight sight and ignored
the attached card, though the card says 'any line of sight spell'.
castSight/castSightEdge now thread the bend through all of them, and
the chronicle narrates the neutral bend too.
Second: the bend itself pivoted only at cell centers, so the card's
flagship shot — doubling back up to 180 degrees around a wall's end —
never resolved: both legs graze the corner and die. The pivot may now
sit in the wall's open gap itself (bentSightThroughGap), which is what
rounding a corner physically is. Closed doors still block; two corners
still refuse.
The client lights bent-reachable squares for real now instead of the
old one-step-adjacency guess, creations included. Pure widening, so no
rev bump: every one of these casts was refused before, so no ledger
holds one. All 26 production ledgers replay clean; the LZ5R moment

Third pass, scoped from 7a32370. Three blind reviewers (engine, web,
server/tools) each concluded the work is coherent engineering with
seam-level tells; every finding was verified before touching a line.
Session biography left the comments: the bot brain's heuristics no
longer cite the opponent who taught them, the RNRX coma parenthetical
and the thief-chase citation are gone, the seat-wallet comments state
their invariants without the war stories, and process-named test
groups now name the behaviors they pin. The incident record lives
where history belongs — commit messages and the ledgers.
Structural dedup: one VISIONSTONE one-edge-sight loop serves both
LOS paths; one creature-arrival touch handler serves walking and
warp-stepping (error text aligned); one facingWedge helper draws both
keymap ribbons; one spriteVisibleInCol rule serves the draw pass and
the hover test (which also stops re-sorting per pointermove); and
deepestFacing joins the director, replacing four copied scans.
Test hardening exposed real rot the tells were hiding: the tight
CreatureState cast caught two literals with a bogus field masking
three missing ones; the number-hoarding rig had NEVER run (its
column didn't exist on seed 42 — it now carves its own geometry);
the bank-guard rig now drives the whole table to an arrival
assertion; the bent-trace test walls off straight sight so the bend
must answer. Silent `return`-on-rig-failure became loud throws, and
can-never-fail assertions were removed.
Sweep-up: the eyeTurn ghost comment, the stacked leave() doc
comments (leave now delegates to leaveLocal), the dead ternary in
the seat client, the kick handler's name-coercion drift, kick ledger
lines gain timestamps, archiveRoomFile reuses fileFor, the RULES_REV

returns you to your own eyes, where the director reseats you fresh.
Two cockpit-dignity fixes from live play ride along: a cutaway to
your own body now plays only for things done TO you — dropping a
dagger no longer flings your eyes out of your skull — and a standing
camera is never "rescued" off a wall you deliberately faced; the
deepest-corridor default applies only to fresh cuts.
