I wish to unidle

I’d do it myself but I never learned how.

You’re an admin, and you don’t know how to idle/unidle people?

You just have to edit the “playerlist” template, in the blog’s “template” section; move yourself from the “idle” to the “unidle” section, drop the comma, and update quorum.

Then click the “GNDT configuration” link below the GNDT, log in with the password (email me if you never had it) and uncomment your entry.

I think that’s it.

It’s not like there is a manual or something. But thanks for the crash course anyways.

You’ve been unidled. I decided I might as well do three at once.

What is this?

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. New players are always welcome and can join in 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."
