BlogNomic: The First Dynasty of Desertfrog

Would be particularly interested why our new players haven’t been posting proposals, in case we’re presenting something badly. Are you following the lead of veteran players, afraid of making mistakes, less interested in that side of the game, just busy, or something else?

  even though proposal making has never been my strong point

For snake-related reasons.

(I’ve been meaning to post more, but, arg, apologies. Will try to up my activity levels.)

  I have been busy, and a bit dry on mechanics ideas. I don’t love the grindy nature of this, but we can always repeal it.

It’s two points per player per dynasty; worst case we just end up with seven quick, bad proposals. But this was as much to start a discussion as to enact a rule.

I’ll see what I can think up

Ah, I misread the part I was calling grindy. 

(That’s a CoV.)

Players less interested in gamebuilding should always consider the basic Nomic strategy of “propose a change that benefits just over half of the players, including you”. Do this successfully with two different groups and you’ll end up with an advantage over everyone.
