Comex’s plans

Comex just happens to be propagating a useless (possibly scam) proposal in Rootnomic.

Also, according to Qwaz, he’s the equivalent of idle in Agora and B.

So, what are his plans???

I think he’s still active in Agora, although I have no affiliations with that nomic in order to verify.

Out of the nomics I play, he’s idle in BlogNomic, Active in Agora, active in PerlNomic, activated in Normish (=Rootnomic) (and has voted there since I last looked, very rare for someone to vote in Normish), not a player in B since the entire gamestate was replaced (due to nobody knowing what it was), although he was active there earlier, and hasn’t contributed to the FRC for ages, if ever.

Anything in those nomics to explain what he’s doing here?

Nope, mostly business as usual. There were something like 4 scam attempts at Agora recently which are rather confusing to keep track of, but they don’t seem related.

Oh, there was this rather unusual proposal in PerlNomic, which Darth’s alluding to above, but it’s failing badly.

Kevan: he/him

If you see him, could you ask him to drop by and explain why he spammed BlogNomic with something that could have locked the game for twelve hours?

How could it have locked the game for twelve hours if I was idle?

comex, in B Nomic:

I become a player.

I become idle.

It could have locked the game if there’d been a bug in the ruleset by which idle players could declare victory, or something. As DoVs go, this one seemed pretty unexplained and fire-and-forget.

So what’s going on? Or would you rather not say until a scam in some other Nomic pays off?

@ais523: I was actually referring to the “me” proposal in Normish. The full text of it is:

activate_me

I found his scam.

You see, Agora recognizes other nomics.

Comex is an Agora player.

Comex used Agora terminology.

Comex listed Agora players among the Blognomic players.

Simple as that.

It was basically the first step towards a mass idling-equivalent at Agora, it seems.

Darth Cliche: that was a result of me typing “activate me” instead of “activate_me” by mistake.

New news:

Comex tried Gourmet Drag Racing on Mars as the secret answer in a challenge over at Agora.  I’m starting to think he is planning something with both nomics…
