Schedule Preemption Docket / 档期抢占案卷

Schedule Preemption Docket is the visible card for a collision between playable claims that cannot all occupy the same schedule surface.

The card does not track time remaining. It tracks who is asking to become broadcast reality, what authority lets them use the slot, and what happens to every claim that is pushed off-slot.

Creation trigger

Create or refresh this card when all of the following are true:

1. at least two slot claims compete for one finite broadcast, rehearsal, legal, route, apology, public testimony, emergency delay, counterbroadcast, or blackout-containment surface;
2. at least one claim would change encounter availability, recruitability, hostility, proof custody, route-asset access, public mandate, or broadcast reality if awarded or displaced;
3. a slot authority exists or its absence is explicitly recorded;
4. the player can award, split, defer, sponsor-preempt, counterbroadcast, or accept default;
5. at least one displaced claim can become missed, hostile, lawful-only, public-only, pirate-only, recovery-only, or blackout-folded.

This card must never appear because a fixed numbered turn, day count, chapter quota, raw content target, or dashboard/lens-health state has arrived.

if_on_slot: lawful_use
if_off_slot: lawful_only | audit_required | recovery_only

Sponsor preemption claim

Shen Luo can present a sponsor-safe claim that relieves immediate stop-loss pressure.

Expected profile:

proof_or_authority: sponsor_letter
if_on_slot: sponsor_relief
if_off_slot: sponsor_retaliation | contract_capture_costlier

Editor mask claim

Baiya can ask for the slot to carry an edited or masked version that protects a source while creating ambiguity.

Expected profile:

claimant_surface: editor
proof_or_authority: archive_receipt | explicit_absence
if_on_slot: stabilize | drift_down
if_off_slot: source_ambiguity_up | blackout_folded

Public or pirate claim

State machine

Docket state	Meaning	Required playable consequence
hidden_collision	competing claims exist but no card exposes the collision	default risk must increase if ignored
collision_open	docket is visible and assignable	player can award, split, defer, preempt, breach, or default
awarded	one claim has the official slot	selected claim changes availability and displaced claims mutate
split	the slot is divided by authority surface	claims become narrower rather than cleanly solved
deferred_with_receipt	one or more claims are delayed with a valid receipt	missed pressure lowers while legal, public, or route cost rises
preempted_by_sponsor	sponsor or management captures the slot	immediate relief appears with public/contract cost
off_slot_breach	public or pirate route bypasses the licensed slot	private capture drops but legality and relay risk rise
defaulted	no credible authority or displacement receipt exists	off-slot default fires or arms
recovery_only	ordinary availability is lost	future recovery requires scarred appeal, apology, audit, or counterproof

Assignment requirements

A rite or event using this card must provide or explicitly lack:

• one slot_window;
• at least two claims or one claim plus one named displaced live object;
• one selected claim or explicit no-selection state;
• one slot authority or explicit absence;
• one displacement receipt for each losing claim or explicit refusal to issue one;
• one future reader for the awarded claim;
• one future reader or default state for each displaced claim.

A handler’s confidence, sponsor preference, or narrator statement is not authority. Authority must be a producer license, schedule contract, mirror/screen right, archive receipt, fan mandate, sponsor letter, inspector stamp, pirate packet, or explicit absence.

Counter payload

Every resolved docket must mutate at least three durable values. At least one must be relief and at least one must be cost.

Recommended payload values:

• schedule_preemption_pressure
• slot_authority_clarity
• encounter_availability
• route_asset_custody
• off_slot_debt
• displacement_receipt_legitimacy
• missed_encounter_pressure
• hostile_recruit_pressure
• recovery_only_window
• sponsor_stop_loss_pressure
• contract_capture
• inspection_heat
• bureau_favor_debt
• public_receipt_distrust
• fan_oxygen_resentment
• archive_signature_legitimacy
• broadcast_reality_drift
• black_screen_slots
• relay_custody_risk

Non-goals

• Not a cooldown card.
• Not a production todo list.
• Not a calendar timer.
• Not a correction docket for versions already aired.
• Not valid if losing claims wait unchanged.
• Not valid if one official slot satisfies every faction without displacement cost.
