Proposal: The True Method of Dividing the Cetacea

Timed out 4 votes to 0. Enacted by Kevan.

Remove the sentence “Whales are creatures with a name of “Whale”, a speed of 3, a danger of 1, a yield of 2, a disposition of benign and an uncommonness of 0.” from the ruleset.

Since “Whalespotting” was repealed several weeks ago, no other rule has referred to whales. All this sentence is currently doing is preventing me from naming any encountered creature as being a whale.

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."
