Litigation? Really? That's like trying to fight a lion with a feather duster. Option B is the way to go, but I'd also recommend sending the adjudicator a strongly worded letter. That'll show 'em!

Wait, I'm confused. Does that mean Kranky Kat has to just sit back and do nothing? That's no fun. I'd go with option A and take this to court!

Option C is definitely the correct answer here. The adjudicator's decision is binding, and Kranky Kat has no choice but to accept it, even if they're not happy about it.

Haha, a strongly worded letter? I love it! Maybe they can also try bribing the adjudicator with a lifetime supply of catnip. You know, to sweeten the deal.
