What, you don’t like Rodney’s creative spelling?

I’m not sure that changing “Excalibur” to “Excalabur” counts as fixing a typo.

Seems like an obvious spelling or typographical mistake to me. Especially given the flavor in the rules: “The instances of the string â€œ$$$$â€ in the Fortress of Cheese represent the walls of the Gaming Room, wherein the Ego attemps to create the Perfect Game”

Perhaps. However, Rodney’s ability to spell my name wrong is well-documented, so….

"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."
