Decide who gets a one-of-a-kind relic when several players grab it at once

Two armies reach the same relic in the same moment, and each player's computer sees a different winner. This entry decides by the game's own step count and the distance, never by when a message happened to arrive, and keeps a dropper from picking the relic straight back up.

Why this works

Every computer has to reach the same verdict from facts they all share. The game's own step count and the distance are the same everywhere, while the moment a message arrived is not, so only the shared facts can decide a tie fairly.

When not to use it

Skip it in a game played by one person or against computer opponents, where no two claims can clash. Also skip it if you want a relic to be won by skill, such as a tug of war or a race to a switch; then let the contest decide.
