Actions that are to be performed "by saying so" are done by sending a message in the appropriate channel that clearly and unambiguously sets forth intent for the action to be taken. | |||
When defining a game action that can be performed by sending a message, the rules should specify a channel where the game action can be taken. If they do not, then the action can be taken by sending the message in '''#game-actions''' indicating intention to take that action. If the rules provide that players can perform a game action without making any provision for any method to take that action, then the action can be taken by sending a message in '''#game-actions''' indicating intention to take that action. If '''#game-actions''' does not exist, then the message can be sent in '''#nomic''' disclaiming that it is intended to be a game action. | |||

When a player believes they have fulfilled this standard, they should react to the message with ✅ to indicate this. | Whenever a player performs an action that would modify the information that the players generally agree should be tracked, that player should make a reasonable effort to track the outcome of the action in any generally-agreed-upon applicable locations or else delegate tracking to another player.
