I already won!

My Declaration of Victory, (which was also a CfJ) Passed automatically at 18:18:38 when it hit a Quorum of FOR votes.
Since it was automatic as per Rule 1.6, passing did not require any admin action.
Hiatus then continues as per Rule 1.9.
Since it was still Hiatus, Hix’ selling eir soul and Rodney’s Switch and Run were illegal, so Rodney’s DoV is incorrect.

Since my DoV passed, the new Dynasty starts once I post an Ascension Adress or announce I’m passing the mantle.

Your “DoV”, in addition to being dubious, does not detail how you won. Therefore, it is illegal.

How was your post a DoV? You never attained victory, nor was there a claim to how you had obtained victory in the post.

Indeed, there was a specific mention in the post that the so-called victory “was also illegal because it was done during Hiatus.”  I’m not really willing to believe that a post including such a sentence can be said to detail the achievement of victory.

In any case, there’s no real need for us to debate whether the post was actually a DoV.  We are not obligated in any way to tolerate quirky exploitations of EE, nor to view their use as valid.  One particularly rediculous aspect of this exploitation is the fact that a non-admin player of this game cannot tell what categories a post has been made in.

As far as I’m concerned, that post is a simple CfJ, just like it seems to be.

Yeah, actually it was.
