    I would assume this to be the case since you cannot un-utter a wish—once you say it, it is counted as a wish before it’s fulfilled.

    If the counter is decremented only after the wish is fulfilled, then this means you can go back on wishes because they don’t count until they’re fulfilled, which goes against the lore.

      Nah theres just no process for undoing your submission.

      It doesn’t matter when it’s decremented if you can’t interrupt the process, anyway.

      In a code sense we pause for input, feed it to the wishmaker function, and pause until the thread returns, then decrement.

      We could decrement first, also, but neither violates the rules.
