Add a new Rule, “Suspicion”:-
Each Gostak may suspect one other Gostak of being up to no good - this is tracked as a GNDT field. A Gostak may change the Gostak they suspect, at any time.
If a Gostak is suspected of being up to no good by three or more other Gostaks, then the Suspected Gostak may not declare victory or otherwise become Ché-Háme-Háme.
hmm… change “three” to “half of quorum” or similar, and I’ll vote for it. Seems too easy to get three people together to stop a legitimate victory. Also, it’s nicer if it scales with quorum, in case the game gets much bigger suddenly.
I like the idea, but I agree the set value is too low. Quorum would be better. Or maybe half of quorum, rounded up.
Yeah, it could prevent an otherwise legal win, but it seems like a workable mechanic to me.
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.
