If there is an institution named “The Bank”, reword its description to:
When a Player Influences the Bank, they gain one Credit for every other Player who Directed at least one Credit to the Bank that Cycle.
This seems like it would create a vicious cycle of avoidance. If you’re just directing token credits in expectation of restocking bonuses, then this is the last institution you’d target that way (as it potentially helps someone else), which in turn decreases its value to anyone actually trying to influence it.
@Murphy, this seems like a good thing to me - it requires balance. Perhaps we should add “each player that directed credits at the Bank gains 1 credit for each 10 credits directed at the Bank amongst all the players that Cycle.”
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.
this is exactly the mechanic I was shooting for.
