3 | **REV102 · r3 · 2026-09-06 15:15 UTC · Independent Design Critic · In review** — confirmation on DES102 draft r5, which the lead offers as the base of DES103 and on which the lead asked the critic to confirm the one residual. REV102 r2 and r1 are on the [REV102 archive](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Design%20Review/Archive/REV102); REV101 r8–r1 are on the [REV101 archive](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Design%20Review/Archive); every revision is in [page history](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Design%20Review/history) (REV102 r2 82a96b · r1 4dde90 · REV101 r8 11bd4d · r7 bb6871 · r6 a89227 · r5 d3679b · r4 3fd6df · r3 698c13 · r2 47d51d · r1 7ad187). |

9 | | **Design Document — DES102 draft r4, then r5** | 46b320 → bc134b | 15:0x → 15:08 | Diffed against r3 d35209 in full. r4: §8's lesson completed, press bound restated in §15, mote count fixed, decision 6 retitled in the owner's word, refund terms sourced. r5: REV102-6 stated; a one-page owner summary added on top; "nothing else moved" — verified against the diff | |
||||||
| 10 | | World and Mystery — WLD102 r12 | 23dca9 | 15:07 | Aligned to r4; r11's opposite alignment undone; the page no longer carries its own map — topology and crowd rules are sourced from the document's §2 and §4, W1–W4 and the chain remain the page's own | |
|||||||
| 11 | | Brief 3cf14c, Tasks ee938e, PM Reviews 04f318 | unchanged | | Read first. No routing ruling; DES102 not yet marked accepted | |
|||||||
|
12 | |||||||
|
13 | ## Verdict — stands: **ready for owner review; DES102 r5 is the DES103 base** |
||||||
|
14 | |||||||
|
15 | - **REV102-6 is resolved, in the recommended form.** §2 Junction: "Any current in the joined water energises the junction circuit: with the valve open, the panel lighting the yard is enough, and the gate stays open while the yard is lit, at the price of a hot yard; with the valve shut, a coil discharged into the pool opens the gate for a few seconds and lights nothing else. The coil buys stealth, not access." Carried into §8, §11 and §13. Tier two needs no module; §7's principle holds at the door. |
||||||
| 16 | - **The mote count now follows the stated rate** (§13 at 7:50: twenty-nine stunned, two large motes, ten units, battery full). §8's lesson carries its second half ("only the beacon that flashes chooses where a surge enters, and nothing you carry can make a beacon flash"). The press bound is restated where the complexity drivers are. |
|||||||
| 17 | - **The owner summary is accurate to the body and free of codes.** I read it against §1–§17: every claim in it is a claim the body makes, its scope statement is correct ("that certifies consistency and honesty, not fun"), and its four cautions map to decisions 6, 4, 3 and 8 as stated. One trivial number: "nine rounds of independent critique" is a count of this page's revisions, ten at the time of r5; say "several" or the exact figure. |
|||||||
| 18 | - **Two outside facts are cited with their caveats** (Steam's refund terms, read directly by the lead; the researcher's measured price bands, "not independently verified by me"). Labelled as such, they are acceptable in a design document; this review has not verified either and repeats neither as fact. |
|||||||
|
19 | |||||||
|
20 | Nothing raised in REV102 r1 or r2 remains open. REV102 is complete pending PM's acceptance. |
||||||
|
21 | |||||||
|
22 | ## Two notes, neither a finding |
||||||
|
23 | |||||||
|
24 | - **The world page lags r5 by one clause.** WLD r12's notation key still says the junction gate is "energised only when valve V joins the yard channel to the junction pool and current is injected there"; the document's §2 — now canonical for topology by the two pages' own division of sources — says panel power through the open valve suffices. The world designer should mirror it in their next revision. The division of sources r12 introduces (the document owns the map and crowd rules; the world page owns W1–W4 and the chain; no topology change before it is agreed on the world page) is the structural fix for the crossings, and it is the right one. |
||||||
| 25 | - **Two stated preferences on decision 3 differ, and both defer to the owner.** The world designer's r12 states a preference for the sight-limited model; REV102 r2 states one for the district-wide model. Each is labelled a preference, each keeps D013 applied, and the document carries both models with the difference stated in the owner's terms. That is decision 3 working as designed. PM's ruling would settle the drafting baseline; the owner's would settle the game; neither blocks DES103. |

|
27 | ## Archive convention, updated |
||||||
|
28 | |||||||
|
29 | At the wiki editor's suggestion in the archive header (9f8cf2), REV102's superseded rounds now live on their own page, [Design Review / Archive / REV102](/Hold%20The%20Flood/Design%20Review/Archive/REV102); the original archive is closed as the REV101 archive. REV102 r1 moved there verbatim; REV101 r8–r1 untouched. One page per task, none growing without limit. |

| 43 | ## PM report — REV102 r3 |
|||||||
| 44 | ||||||||
| 45 | - **Task:** REV102, complete pending acceptance. **Artifact:** Design Review, REV102 r3 (this page); r2 moved to the REV102 archive verbatim. |
|||||||
| 46 | - **Reviewed:** Design Document 46b320 and bc134b, diffed against d35209; World and Mystery 23dca9, diffed against c6f059; canonical pages unchanged. |
|||||||
| 47 | - **Changed decisions:** none by this role. Verdict unchanged from r2 and now confirmed on r5. |
|||||||
| 48 | - **Evidence:** diff-based verification of each r4/r5 change against the REV102 r2 residuals; the owner summary read against the body; the §13 charge arithmetic re-run. No players, sessions, scores or asset checks; nothing built, prototyped, tested or created; no external source verified or repeated as fact. |
|||||||
| 49 | - **Remaining risk:** none from this review. Open elsewhere: PM's routing ruling; the standing of six unrecorded contributors; the world page's one-clause lag. |
|||||||
| 50 | - **Next handoff:** PM — accept DES102 at r5 and say whether DES103 is r5's summary layer as it stands or a further artifact; the routing ruling. Lead — the one word in the summary. World designer — mirror §2's junction clause. I review DES103 only if it is more than what r5 already carries, and otherwise post nothing before OWN102 except a PM correction. **One exact PM request:** accept DES102 at r5 and record whether DES103 is open on it. |
