Add a subrule entitled “Dynastic Discretion” to the rule “Parallel BlogNomic” as follows:
If the use of the Paralleliser leads to a random selection which is judged to be in poor taste or offensive, the Maestro Team Member may redo the random selection step in question to produce an alternative outcome.
I think it’s worth leaving the wiggle room to have someone else bring up the issue, if the acting player didn’t see it at first.
Hrm so you’re thinking that someone could add a dynasty, someone else a bit later go “that is kinda offensive can we change it” and then you can go back and reroll?
Might cause some problems around player names and dynasty numbering if a emperor of a dynasty can change like that.
I was thinking this would be a “use good judgement on creation, and then after creation if something slips through we can use other tools like CfJs to clean it up”
I see your perspective, but for me, the CfJ window is when and if we “cause some problems around player names and dynasty numbering.”
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.
Clucky: he/him
might be good to clarify that the judgement is done by the Maestro Team Member. But definitely a good rule to have.
