GD Oath
New Rule: Guests or citizens may register to the game as Global Directors when a spot is vacant or inherited by posting to the thread "I, [Username], who shall now be known as [Nickname], register to the thread as a global director and understand that I share responsibility for the content of Pure Nomic with the Global Directors."

Reason: Humility. Nuff said.

Order in the Count
New Rule: Rules must be listed in the order they were proposed, except when a proposal or a revision suggests otherwise.

Reason: Another phantom rule I think. Make it official.

Director Titles
New Rule: The Topic Creator can give each Global Director a title by announcing it in the thread. After 72 hours the Topic Creator can give them a different title. The Topic Creator's title is Topic Creator, or TC for short.
Revision: (Instance of OP in the rules are to be replaced by TC when referencing the Topic Creator)

Reason: I wish to remove the incentive to use Nicknames as Titles. Because having actual appointed titles has merit.
Note: We need to kill OP. I mean it can't have two meanings in legal writing. TC works.

(Just kidding TC, don't read too much into that. Don't start a holy war against me or something.)

How can we get more Citizens to join the game? I suspect the reason that we are not getting any is because they think they would be second-class citizens, no pun intended. What can we do about that?

We have 5 active players. That is a very successful nomic.
I see.

That makes me think that five might be the ideal number of players.

Amendment to Rule 2
Global Director limit of 5.

It occurred to me that it might be possible to bypass the proposal limit by having players propose rules on another player's behalf.

I also have some interest in trying to assimilate other games into this one.

Eh, 6 is fine, and at 5 it's room to grow. But odd number does allow for majority, I'll have think about it.

Divine Nomic
I oppose this. Alpha/Beta? Now Holy? Prove these things serve a purpose before you expand further. Idle talk means nothing when it does not reflect in your proposal choices.

Pyramid Scheme
I oppose this. This will eventually result in exponential point gains, which will brake any kind of shopping mechanics.

Divine Law
I do not support this. I do not know how to write in pseudo-religious terminology, but I assume this responsibility falls upon a TC, and a TC may ignore any rule that makes a TC do something.

Divine Nomic is not a class of rule. It is a side game like the RTD.

The Pyramid Scheme cuts off after the third level.

Divine Laws would be written in pseudo-biblical/pseudo-Olde English.

"The number of Global Direcctor'th must not be but six." would be rule two in Holy Law.

You failed to mention that anywhere in the proposal.

Divine Nomic is not a class of rule. It is a side game like the RTD.
It is still an expansion. If this passes will you agree to propose some rule moves to Beta before next Wednesday or we remove Beta laws?

Oh, whoops.

I already proposed moving some rules to Beta.

Why don't you kill Pyramid scheme and we can talk about the math a bit before we commit to a proposal.

I would think you wouldn't want it in the current form.

That rule wasn't official at the time.

I will change my vote to permit Divine Nomic, which is already supported by naturegirl/Digresser, if you use one of your proposals for today of which you have 2 left to officially make your previous proposal for some Alpha/Beta changes, or a new one.

I am trying to throw you a soft ball here. There's 2 hours left until it expires.



On a different note Digresser is looking for a turkey partner.

Bookkeeping revision: If a Global Director does not post to the thread for three days than they can be killed by any Global Director, and if killed are no longer signed up. They may resign/respawn at any time if there is still an open slot.

Beta transmutation:

All characters must be aligned with an entity of their choice. This entity may be an individual (see clause B), a specimen of flora or fauna, an organization, or a deity (see clause C).
Clause B: The individual may be the character itself.
Clause C: The deity must be from a pre-existing (see clause C.A) religion or fictional work.
Clause C.A: Pre-existing, for the sake of this rule, means before the character was made.

Beta transmutation:

Global Directors can create multiple characters, but only one character can be active at a time. When the active character dies, GD can choose which of their backup characters takes the Acive character’s place upon death. Backup characters do not start with what the Active character had upon death.
