Ascension Address: Unequal Rights

“An imbalance between rich and poor is the oldest and most fatal ailment of all republics.”
—Plutarch

“Justice will not be served until those who are unaffected are as outraged as those who are.”
—Benjamin Franklin

“The only thing that makes life unfair is the delusion that it should be fair.”
—Steve Maraboli

“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.”
—Peter Suber

Change the term Seeker to Nomicer and the term Custodian to Imperator, wherever they appear in the ruleset. Repeal all dynastic rules. Activate the following Building Blocks: Bounties, Reinitialisation, Precondition Unidling. Change the Gamestate Tracking page to the SNDT page in the wiki.

Imperial styles… Provocateur. Libertarian. Powerhouse. Scam-Neutral. Oblivious. Wildcard. Very happy to take on private tracking and mechanically important roles as needed.

NB that I have turned off the edit window Building Block. We’ll see how much we all hate that.

Unidling. Player count is 8, quorum is 5.

I’m glad, actually. Only through such experimentation will we really find out if we’re ready to let go of the Edit Window permanently or not.
