If at least 8 of the Effective Votes on this proposal are FOR, then repeal the Perdurable Rule “Imperial Lineage”.
Might as well offer these options separately so they don’t fail together.
I actually really like Imperial Lineage, because it doesn’t just block other people out from winning. It incentivizes them to get better at writing proposals and building support for their rules, as well as creative ways to find loopholes.
The way I see it, Imperial Lineage creates a form of tutorial for new players: they can’t win until they learn how to change the rules and play the game effectively. 
In my opinion, you shouldn’t have to get literally every active player to agree to change the rules to allow you to win by an intended mechanic (or else convince a quorum to redefine “achieve victory” so that the Imperial Lineage doesn’t do anything).
You’re probably right, but I would be interested to at least see where it goes before we repeal it
How does telling people “you can’t win” incentivize people at getting better at writing proposals?
I’m not a new player. This rule does not incentivize me to do anything other than not play in this dynasty either.
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.
