well I'll be.

So, firstly: the halls of injustice were King Otis' (previously Laurence's) suggestion, not mine. I merely agreed and therefore cannot take any credit. (If you are questioning any comprehensive reading skills - one of the many skills required to solve riddles - then hopefully I have at least addressed that concern.)
Secondly, by default the threadrunner (
@Silky Gooseness, or the goose supreme) would be playing the Mouth of Sauron yes. If she deigns some version of some existing or new character I and or
@Rivvy Elf could play as worthy, we would be allowed to sit in.
Thirdly, pertaining to the matter of obtaining legal counsel - this is left to your preference and discretion. You may choose to represent yourself or you may petition someone else to do it for you. (This person does have to agree, of course.)
Fourthly, expertise on the matter at hand is not required for a judge. It is not required for judges who handle divorce cases to divorce x times a month. Legal representatives may bring forth their case, experts and eye witnesses. The judge takes into account the law, precedent, and in the case of The Halls of Injustice, whatever else they like.
Fifthly, your suggestion for a bylaw has been noted. Once we have filed through our backlog, we will review it and get back to you. Unfortunately the current team is only in office for six months and if a new admin team is in place by then, you will have to make the suggestion anew.
