BlogNomic: The First Dynasty of Desertfrog

I don’t like the idea of encouraging players to vote against good proposals and hold up the queue.

Needs fixing, but I like the idea of a Rule based Dynasty.

For example: If you propose a good (and passing) Proposal, some Anarchists have an advantage, but you do not have. Why should you propose a good one then?

On the other hand, if you propose a bad (and failing) Proposal, some Anarchists have an advantage and you have definitely an advantage.

So proposing bad Proposals is better than proposing good ones? Or the good ones fail and the bad ones pass… Not really nice.

So , but would be “for”, if you can manage to fix that.

  per Purplebeard. Also, I don’t like fixed end dates to dynasties.

The mean average of a bunch of positive integers is not likely to be another positive integer.  Put the rounding scheme into the Rule (e.g. always round up; always round down; round to the nearest, with half-integers rounding toward the nearest odd on weekdays and to the nearest even on weekends, etc.)

And don’t initialize a positive-integer-valued variable to zero.

Hix: the glossary includes a default rounding method (round towards 0).

@Purplebeard: Ruleset: “If a rule implies that the result of a division should be an integer (for instance, by attempting to store that result in, or add it to, a gamestate variable that can only hold integers), the result of the division is instead the result rounded towards 0.”

I do not know whether an average fits in this. Of course, if you calculate an average, you DIVIDE the sum of items by the number of items, but there may be other ways to do that…
