Add the following to the Mandate List
It does not contain a link to a website
Add the following to the first paragraph of “Distinguished Legislators”
If the Crossed Legislator goes Idle, the Crossed Legislator is set to Nobody
No “enact the changes on this site” proposals to get around the 200 word limit.
An html link is pretty clearly a link to a website in my book. Sure, you’re linking to a page on a website but you’re also linking to the website
A link doesn’t need to specify the website at all Web browsers will look for it on the current website (so if you moved the link anywhere but BlogNomic it wouldn’t work).
As it happens, ExpressionEngine rewrites relative links in such a way that they break – it reinterprets the page link as a site link, which will therefore go to the wrong place (and implies that I can’t give you an example as it wouldn’t work). I’m not entirely sure why it does that, but it may end up fixing the proposal in an unexpected way (or alternatively, the proposal might fall afoul of the “unexpected ExpressionEngine behaviours” Fair Play clause because it looks like it’s scammable, but ExpressionEngine weirdness means that it actually isn’t).
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.

You probably want “web page” not “website”: a single page within a website is not a website itself. (I think there are still ways to scam this even with that change, but at least it would remove the most obvious.)
