Cycle Blackout Default / 周期黑屏默认

Cycle Blackout Default fires or arms when a weekly broadcast cycle closes as clean rollover while unresolved cycle rows are hidden, unserved, or unpriced.

The default does not mean the whole week failed. It means the week was overfiled: the next cycle consumed a false-clean cycle state while forced main service, license capacity, side-slot rows, blackout rows, legacy, or reader split still mattered.

Default Branches

Default kind	What appears to happen	What actually hardens
Forced main hidden	next week starts normally	overflow pressure, company audit debt, blocked side slot
License false release	capacity looks available	polluted or frozen slot, recovery-only cleanup
Embedded false clean	host and side slot both settle	shared-risk scar, sponsor/public split, route costlier
Prep overclaim	receipt travels as generic win	out-of-scope prep debt, proof burden, archive objection
Legacy overfiled	player selects a reward card	legacy debt, hostile rumor, next-cycle route lock
Blackout ignored	blackout count stays cosmetic	passive pollution, public addendum, lawful-only correction
Reader overwrite	one audit reader owns the week	sponsor/public/lawful/archive split and reconciliation cost

Durable Scars

The event must write at least one durable scar:

• false_cycle_closure
• forced_main_overflow_hidden
• license_pollution
• blackout_quarantine_required
• legacy_debt
• embedded_slot_false_clean
• cycle_reader_split
• next_cycle_recovery_only

Recovery Hooks

Recovery never clears the event for free. Valid recovery states include:

• reopen Weekly Broadcast Cycle Ledger;
• quarantine a blackout slot;
• publish a cycle addendum;
• convert legacy into debt, rumor, or route asset;
• split cycle memory by reader;
• begin next cycle with forced-main overflow;
• downgrade license state to costlier, blocked, frozen, hostile, or recovery-only.

Non-Goals

• Not a generic week-loss event.
• Not a punishment for reaching Day 7.
• Not valid unless a future cycle consumed false-clean audit state.
