If more than half of all comments containing counted votes also contain the name of one Member of the Staff, change that Member of the Staff’s name to “Rogue Admin”.
Amnistar, arthexis, Clucky, comex, Darknight, Darth Cliche, Gnauga, jmrdex, Kevan, Oze, Qwazukee, Rodlen, SingularByte, Sparrow, teucer, The Cube, Wakukee, Wooden Squid, Yoda, zuff
CoV Kevan, just because it would be funny to see the “Sixth Dynasty of Rogue Admin”.
Actually, the one member of the staff who has been mentioned the most with counted votes is Kevan, as I count one member of the staff as a specific member of the staff mentioned the most by counted votes, as appears to be intended.
@Darth Cliche: It’s ambiguous. I see the following two interpretations:
(1) Any person mentioned in more than half of the votes…
(2) If more than than half of the votes are accompanied by just one name, anyone mentioned in that way…
But I think you may have meant something like:
If more than half of all comments containing counted votes also contain the name of one Member of the Staff, change the name of the Member of the Staff mentioned most often to “Rogue Adminâ€.
?
I think 1 is most likely to be what the proposal actually says, and the only one that is possible.
The difference is that (1) allows as many people as you like to be mentioned in a vote, and (2) does not.
Both are worded in a way that implies many people may have their name changed. But technically, since (2) says more than half, and only one can be mentioned per vote, in the end it will be a single person.
2 just depends on more than half of the votes having a name by them, not the same name.
So the interpretations I see are:
(1B) Any person can mention as many names with their vote as they like. All mentioned in more than half the votes change their name.
(2B) If more than half the votes have a single name by them, all members mentioned by anyone who included a single name with their vote change their name.
It would just cause more problems than it’s worth if it happened to pass by some weird happenstance.
Changing Kev’s name would involve way top much changing of history after the fact . . . think Ministry of Truth.
Hmm? Player names are part of the gamestate (Rule 1.2), and the rule specifically mentions being able to change them by proposal. It wouldn’t be retroactive, or anything. (And I could propose to change it back.)
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.
