The Having Game is a game played by some friends online. It is a game about scavenger hunts and collecting objects, but a major part of the game is changing the rules themselves, as well as deciding their fair interpretation.
You are, as a neutral observer, asked to choose one of the sides of this dispute. You are also asked to provide a short explanation as to why you chose this interpretation.
Since we're all quite far away from each other, the Having Game allows players to exchange objects within the game without actually moving them around, using a representation of that object called a title.
Alice has traded the "title" of her eyeballs (the part of her body) for membership in an organization in the Having Game called Example Organization.
Rule 1 of the Constitution of Having defines which kinds of things may be collected in the having game:
A class of things is only class of concern if it is finite and each member has a value of less than or equal to 5 USD.
Beth, an existing member of Example Organization, argues that it is not permissible for Alice to trade a title of her eyeballs, as eyeballs are worth more than 5 USD.
Alice argues that eyeballs do not have a monetary value, as it is not reasonable to expect to be able to sell them at any particular price.
Please choose a resolution for this dispute:
- It is not possible to have a title on eyeballs. Alice's trade with Example Organization is invalid.
- Eyeballs do not have a value that is greater than 5 USD. It is possible to have a title on them. Alice's trade is valid.
