Proposal: The Beast

Self killed, few to many, may have been vetoed, too. —Excalabur.

Adminned at 08 Dec 2005 23:12:21 UTC

Add a new Inclination to the ruleset named “The Beast”

Let a FOR vote have a numerical score of 1, and an AGAINST vote have a numerial score of -1. Any Voice whose Identity is ‘Es’ may cast (and have counted) any number of non-deferential votes on a Proposal, provided that the numerical total of votes cast is either -1, 0,or 1.

Add the following line to the next proposal in the queue: “Cheese is awesome”.

The enacting administrator of this proposal must delete a line from the Fortress of Cheese.

This = Es guys being able to Veto anything that’s about to pass. And destroying random parts of the FoC doesn’t sound very fun.

Ack. Or pass any proposal, for that matter. Will repropose something closer to what I wanted when I have a slot.

It’s already self-killed, all right?

What is BlogNomic?

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.

"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."
