So why do you plan on being confused? Only advice I can offer is, read the docs. They have most of the info.

I’ve read the docs, and I’m less confused, but I expect to see some very confusing things. Example, I don’t understand why on earth the forgiveness proposal passed, though I haven’t looked at the proposal since I originally read it.

Is your question: “What were the mechanics of passing the forgiveness proposal” or “Why did anybody vote for it?”

What is BlogNomic?

BlogNomic is an online Nomic: a self-modifying game where changing the rules is part of the game. Players make blog posts proposing additions or alterations to the ruleset, discussing and casting votes in the comments: if enough vote in favour, the rules are changed and play continues.

The game has been running since 2003 and resets every month or so. Have a look around the wiki for more information and history. New players are always welcome and can join in the game at any time.

"Nomic is a game in which changing the rules is a move. In that respect it differs from almost every other game. The primary activity of Nomic is proposing changes in the rules, debating the wisdom of changing them in that way, voting on the changes, deciding what can and cannot be done afterwards, and doing it. Even this core of the game, of course, can be changed."
