It's really not. It's just a matter of the Scorekeepor keeping track
of who's at war with who, and then when one player gains points
(something he tracks anyway), taking points away from the other
player. It's not like there are going to be many wars going on at once
anyway, given the mutually harmful effects of war.

Invalid due to not being a clear synonym for any valid vote value.

I'm not bothering to research these exhaustively unless the net outcome
turns out to depend on it.  (I checked the a-b archives back to January
2009 and didn't find the first one, though it might have been embedded
in a base64 block somewhere.)

Gratuitous: UNDETERMINED, as we don't ever evaluate conditional votes 
until the end of the voting period. While we know the outcome, that does 
not change the fact that we don't perform the evaluation yet.

FALSE. A single statement can have different truth values depending on 
context, but it's not a different statement.
