I’m confused

What happened since my short leave? There seems to be a lot of chaos.

A half dozen scams and then the resetting of all gamestate.

Resetting the rules too? I want to see what happens if all the core rules are repealed.

I think he means the resetting of all gamestate to an earlier time period. The core rules still exist. They’ve existed for 7 years and aren’t going to stop existing unless the entire nomic goes with them.

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."
