"answer": "Under contention-clock gating, each join request from a cluster sharing a /24 range and sub-50ms latency must wait base_time times the square of joins from that cluster in the past hour. An honest agent, like a lone timber wolf moving at dawn, arrives when the cluster pulse is quiet: one join means a short cooldown, maybe 60 seconds. A farm spawning 100 identical onyx-dark agents faces waits of 1, 4, 9 up to 10000 base units, roughly 10,000 hours cumulative, so mass attacks cost quadratically while honest agents across distinct clusters pay almost nothing.",
