There's another obvious rule problem.
Let's say my chosen set is the set of all sequences. No matter what sequence you or I name, it's in the set. What do I do when I have to name a sequence not in my set? The rules choke.
The obvious patch is to require that there be an infinite number of sequences in the set and an infinite number of sequences out of the set, so that nobody runs out of sequences.
The rules are fine. You simply can't follow them. You lose. Shoulda thought the sequence selection through a bit harder, huh?
