BlogNomic: Cult Culling

Proposal: Cult Culling

Self-killed. Failed by Kevan.

Adminned at 17 Dec 2012 03:21:41 UTC

Enact a new subrule of the rule “Cults”, named “Idle Leaders”

If there is only one believer belonging to a Cult and that Believer becomes idle, that Cult is deleted by deleting its list entry in the rule “Cults”

In a similar line to Joshs proposal, I think there is currently no way at all to delete cults, so a few idle one-man cults would block the creation of new cults. I think, if a cult has more members than one, one of the others should become the new leader and the leader should no longer belong to that cult. I am not sure about how to decide that right now, so I’ll just start with this proposal to begin with.

Unless they are the Auspex, the admin who performs the idling will not know whether or not that Believer was the final member of a Cult.

Dann it, I didn’t think of that.

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."
