define[dynasticRule Bankruptcy[if a Corporation’s worth is less than -100, its assets are frozen and its stocks cannot change ownership except by proposal, CfJ or as explicitly allowed by this rule’s subrules
So lets assume this proposal passes - as it is on track to do. What does the enacting admin do? I would assume that without some understanding of how this proposal should be interpreted, it can’t add anything to the ruleset.
english? Wow would have never guessed! :P
It’s very clear to me… Create a new dynastic rule, with text “if a Corporation…”
I smell CfJ after this one passes…
honestly? it’s the malformed syntax that hurts the most. I would like it better if it was more:
define[dynasticRule[“Bankruptcy”, “If a Corporation’s worth is less than -100, its assets are frozen and its stocks cannot change ownership except by proposal, CfJ or as explicitly allowed by this rule’s subrules.”]]
@lilomar - why not go all the way - pull out the if/then from the body text :P
The If-Then is embedded in a string literal, it’s not meant to be interpreted mechanically. :-)
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.
