In the rule Innovation, change the Effect of the Shared Wisdom Innovation to read
Every time you React to a Dilemma whose number is a multiple of 7, gain 1 Ingenuity
Change the Prerequisite of the same Innovation to “May not have already been learned by this District”.
Sure.
I don’t share your clock reluctance but I also don’t care, so have straight switched your wording in.
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.

you beat me to it!

The clocks!
Whatever the unarticulated upside of multiple game clocks might be (that by adding untracked complexity they create more scope for surprise?), I don’t think it’s worth the downside of potentially incentivising delay and introducing timing pressures. (That if there’s an Innovate Dilemma early on a weekend, a player might find themselves under needless pressure to wait 40+ hours before responding to it, and to hit the necessary timing window, so that they can collect Monday’s Ingenuity bonus before Innovating.) The usefulness of the Innovation is also going to be a gamble on how many Dilemmas actually get posted each week.
Daily and weekly actions feel like the fallback when we don’t have anything else. This one could as easily be “every time you React to a Dilemma whose number is a multiple of 7, gain 1 Ingenuity”.
