And then there's 9-9-1. It could be argued that an innocent act by someone who doesn't know what's going on isn't "unfair", but if it works to someone's disadvantage in the game, I think it must be considered so.

I would use the elastic clause granted me in the "unfair act" section of the rulebook and make things as right as I could. BTW, Mike Pereira said virtually the same thing on his Twitter feed.
