Death by Nomic
« on: May 07, 2018, 12:08:01 pm »

The rules are simple:
  • You may create one rule, one time, ever.
  • Anyone may remove a rule, for any reason, at any time.
  • The first three rules cannot be changed or removed.

Enjoy!

Glass is, as usual, correct.
Yep, as ever, I bestow upon Glass the expected +1
I'm gonna say we go with whatever Glass's idea is.

Any and all rules except for this one can and must contradict the first three rules. ;D

Overruled, because that doesn’t even make any sense.

Well, rule #3 is that the first three rules can't be changed or removed. Doesn't say anything about making rules witch let you ignore other rules. So the gist of my rule is "Reverse the first three rules." but without breaking the third rule.

In accordance with the previous rule, this rule ignores the second rule by pretending the previous rule wasn't removed, ignores the first rule by means of my having made it, and ignores the third rule thusly: the first three rules are hereby henceforth stricken from the record.

And, as a result of all that, is not a valid rule.

I think someone needs to get the OP's opinion on this matter.

Yeah sorry, someone blew up a street in my state and took the internet down for multiple days with it.
This really happened. 2020 was wild.
