## REV103 r2 — retained verbatim (superseded by REV103 r3)
+
+
+
**REV103 · r2 · 2026-09-06 16:12 UTC · Independent Design Critic · In review** — review of **DES103 r4, the Design Document at revision r10**, which was written against PMR002's closing review, World r16 and REV102 r5/r6 — three minutes before REV103 r1 existed — and so resolves two of r1's four items on its own and leaves two. Present-tense, revision-specific, on the same ledgers. REV103 r1 is on the [REV103 archive](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Design%20Review/Archive/REV103); REV102 r6–r1 on the [REV102 archive](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Design%20Review/Archive/REV102); REV101 r8–r1 on the [REV101 archive](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Design%20Review/Archive); every revision is in [page history](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Design%20Review/history) (REV103 r1 285925 · REV102 r6 538724 · … · REV101 r1 7ad187).

## What was reviewed
+
+
| Artifact | Revision | UTC | Note |
+
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+
| **Design Document — DES103 r4 (document r10)** | 8afa59 (r9 fb6b6d) | 15:54 | Diffed against r9. §12 and §13 are byte-identical to r9, so REV103 r1's ledgers apply unchanged. New: §11 mirrors World r16; owner page and §16 sentences corrected; battery glossary entry; two-battery electrician drawn with a new "a module accepts one link" rule; PM's vertical-coil arrangement added; burst nominal = actual |
| Clarity Questions — Q41 | e183b1 | 15:55 | Licence codes in §14 as if interchangeable; verified below |
+
| Tasks ab97dc, Brief 28fb1c, World and Mystery 812fd6 | unchanged | | |
+
+
## Verdict — **revise: one short pass; three sentences and two ledger cells**
+
+
r10 resolves REV103-3 and every part of REV103-4 without having read them, because the same corrections came from the world designer and PM. What remains is the two items whose text r10 did not touch — one leftover sentence and one rule its own examples disobey, which r10 has now made load-bearing — plus one criterion-8 sentence the reader is right about. Each is a line. The document's rules, scenes and finale otherwise hold under the ledgers; nothing here is a rule change. No verdict is offered on r11 before it exists.
+
+
## REV103 r1 items against r10
+
+
| Item | Where in r10 | Status |
+
| --- | --- | --- |
+
| **REV103-1** — §12's leftover sentence; two ledger cells | §12 (line 340): "Rack now: coil, battery, three bundles, one slot empty, and one drip, because a bundle touches the battery." still follows the corrected text; the 9:00 kills' motes are still absent from the ledger; the 5:00–7:30 drip timing is unchanged | **Open** — unchanged from r9 |
+
| **REV103-2** — the collection rule versus both scenes | §5 (line 144): "A collected mote goes to the linked battery with the most room" unchanged; §13 3:00 still collects into an unlinked battery; §13 6:00 still fills the fuller battery first. **New in r10:** §6's profitable electrician `S C C / I B B` — "a module accepts one link, so the second battery is storage until it is relinked to the coil in a shelter." Under the collection rule as written, an unlinked battery collects nothing, so the storage battery cannot store: the loadout r10 draws to show the profit cannot make one | **Open, and now load-bearing** |
+
| **REV103-3** — §11's Fix ending vs World r16 and §4 | §11 now "the world designer's (their revision r16…); their page owns it and this section mirrors it": reaching the room, inside the room, each ending; "the clamp fixes the signal cable only, so the panel's power positions still work… and no door is open or shut forever" | **Resolved** |
+
| **REV103-4** — three stale sentences | Owner page: "This document has been reviewed by an independent critic and by PM, and revisions remain open; no review is evidence that it is fun, balanced or saleable." §16: the External Critic "a member since Brief D015… PM has since disposed of it". Appendix A: "**Battery:** the one-slot module that stores charge, ten units; it powers the one module it is linked to, and leaks into any wet bundle it touches" | **Resolved** |
+
+
## The new rack drawings, checked by adjacency
+
+
- **PM's vertical-coil arrangement** `S C B / S C S`, link B→C: the battery at (1,3) touches the coil and the lower-right bundle only; the two left bundles touch the coil's housing and each other and never reach the battery. **One drip, as stated.** Three bundles with no drip is indeed impossible: with the coil vertical, the battery's remaining neighbour is a bundle in every placement.
+
- **The two-battery electrician** `S C C / I B B`, link lower-right B→C: the linked battery touches the coil and the storage battery; the storage battery touches the coil and the insulation; the one bundle touches the coil and the insulation. **No leak, as stated.** Its purpose fails only for the reason in REV103-2.
+
- The harvester and arc hauler are unchanged from r9 and still leak-free.
+
+
## One new item
+
+
### REV103-5 — §14 offers five licences as one route while decision 2 proposes an adaptation (Clarity Q41, verified)
+
+
- **Where:** §14: OpenGameArt's assets "are offered under one of CC0, CC-BY 3.0/4.0, CC-BY-SA 3.0/4.0, OGA-BY 3.0/4.0 or GPL 2.0/3.0… each asset carries its own uploader-chosen licence." §17 decision 2: a humanoid Flood "tinted and size-varied from a free pack, the enemy would be covered at no cost." Most rows of §14's table read "not yet selected" with OpenGameArt the standing candidate; the one named pack (Kenney's Top-down Shooter, CC0, checked by the lead and by PM) is fine.
+
- **Why it fails:** tinting and resizing is an adaptation. Of the five licences listed, share-alike terms attach conditions to what is made from the asset and no-derivatives terms forbid the operation; CC0 alone means "no strings". The document is accurate about the source and careful about the one pack, but tells the owner "at no cost" for a route whose licence is chosen per asset by whoever uploaded it. Brief D009 requires "each asset's actual source, creator, terms, and intended use recorded", and criterion 8 says terms "must not be invented" — they are not invented here, but they are not yet a decision either.
+
- **Consequence:** small now, real at the moment anything is selected; and it sits inside the one owner decision that mentions cost.
- **Minimal change:** one sentence in §14 or decision 2: "the free route means CC0-licensed assets, or an asset whose recorded licence permits adaptation; share-alike or no-derivative terms would constrain or forbid the tint-and-resize route." The team's Reference Researcher has since started an asset-licence page (REF104); §14 can point at it rather than restate it.
+
+
## A note, not a finding: length
+
+
r10 is about nineteen thousand words; the owner page is one. The Tasks criteria judge specificity and coherence, not length, and the owner is told where to read. But the state tables and ledgers that made this review possible are review apparatus: for the owner's copy they belong in an appendix beside the bookkeeping, with §12 and §13 kept as prose. That is the lead's call under "concise pitch plus supporting detail"; it is recorded here because the editor has reported the growth to the lead and PM and this role agrees the owner should not have to read the tallies to read the game.

## PM report — REV103 r2
+
+
- **Task:** REV103. **Artifact:** Design Review, REV103 r2 (this page); r1 moved to the new REV103 archive verbatim.
+
- **Reviewed:** Design Document 8afa59 in full, diffed against fb6b6d; PM Reviews 6e8d12; Clarity e183b1. §12/§13 confirmed byte-identical to r9, so r1's ledgers stand; r10's two new racks checked by adjacency.
+
- **Changed decisions:** none by this role.
+
- **Evidence:** the ledgers in REV103 r1 (archived); the quoted lines. No players, sessions, scores or asset checks; nothing built, prototyped, tested or created; no external source verified or repeated as fact.
+
- **Verdict:** revise — one short pass: delete one sentence and add two ledger cells (REV103-1); one sentence making the collection rule and the scenes agree, which also rescues r10's storage battery (REV103-2); one sentence on what "free" means for an adapted asset (REV103-5). Then the document is, on the evidence of what r10 already does, the artifact for the owner — a judgment this role will make on r11, not now.
+
- **Remaining risk:** none beyond the three lines; the pages agree on the finale by construction now that §11 mirrors the world page.
+
- **Next handoff:** lead — r11 with REV103-1, -2, -5. I review r11 when it exists and post nothing before then except a PM correction. **One exact PM request:** none.
