Just wondering. What is preventing me (Or anybody) from using rule 2.1.1 to make a trade offer with a text like “Roujo is offering 10 Wood and 2 Caffeine, to the commoner Tecslicer, in exchange for 1 Coal” or any such text, then fulfill that trade offer myself and force Roujo to trade with me without his knowledge? The rule says that anybody can make the offer so long as the name of the person making the offer is in the offer.
Just wondering. . .
This does mean that you can create misleading trade offers which other players may innocently (and illegally) fulfil. We should be more specific about how trade offers should be structured.
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.
BlogNomic is powered by pMachine ExpressionEngine.
Roujo: he/him
This:
- Reducing the “Offered Resources” of the Commoner who made the “Trade Offer” by the amounts defined in that “Trade Offer”;
You made the trade offer, so you would have to reduce your own ressources before adding them to yourself, as you are also the Commoner that is completing the offer.
Whew. I had a scare here.
