Proposal: Watermark

Reached quorum 4 votes to 0. Enacted by Kevan.

Adminned at 26 May 2016 08:32:30 UTC

Replace the second paragraph of the rule “Photos” with:

A Photo is Confirmed if it contains an authentic handwritten appearance (taken as part of the photograph) of:

exactly one name of a Hunter

the Merriam Webster Word of the Day for the day on which the photograph was taken, or the preceding day (per http://www.merriam-webster.com/word-of-the-day).

A Hunter may only include a Photo in blog posts if the Photo contains an authentic handwritten appearance of their name.

Preventing Hunters from re-using Photos to claim second-place points if “Capture the Flag” passes.

Good point. Bit of a shame to lose the cryptic simplicity of a single word in the shot, though: we could just disallow obviously-repeat photos.

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."
