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.
Spoiler: CURRENT IMMUTABLE RULES
101
: All players must abide by all Immutable and Mutable rules in effect. The rules in the Initial Set are in effect when the game begins. The Initial Set consists of Rules 101-115 (Immutable) and 201-212 (Mutable).102
: Players may propose an addition, amendment, or removal of a Mutable Rule.103
: Players may propose to move a Mutable rule to the Immutable category, or an Immutable rule to the Mutable category.104
: All proposals shall be voted on. They will be adopted if and only if they receive the required number of votes.105
: Every player is an eligible voter.106
: If a rule is adopted, it shall guide play in the form in which it was voted on.107
: No rule-change may take effect earlier than the moment of the completion of the vote that adopted it. No rule-change may have retroactive application.108
: Each proposed rule-change shall be given a number for reference. The numbers shall begin with 301, and each rule-change proposed in the proper way shall receive the next successive integer, whether or not the proposal is adopted. If a rule is repealed and reenacted, it receives the number of the proposal to reenact it. If a rule is amended or transmuted, it receives the number of the proposal to amend or transmute it. If an amendment is amended or repealed, the entire rule of which it is a part receives the number of the proposal to amend or repeal the amendment.109
: Rule-changes that transmute immutable rules into mutable rules may be adopted if and only if the vote is unanimous among the eligible voters. Transmutation shall not be implied, but must be stated explicitly in a proposal to take effect.110
: In a conflict between a mutable and an immutable rule, the immutable rule takes precedence and the mutable rule shall be entirely void. For the purposes of this rule a proposal to transmute an immutable rule does not "conflict" with that immutable rule.111
: If a rule-change as proposed is unclear, ambiguous, paradoxical, or if it consists of two or more rule-changes compounded or is an amendment that makes no difference, then the other players may suggest amendments or argue against the proposal before the vote. A reasonable time must be allowed for this debate. The proponent decides the final form in which the proposal is to be voted on and, unless the Judge has been asked to do so, also decides the time to end debate and vote.112
: A player always has the option to forfeit the game rather than continue to play or incur a game penalty. No penalty worse than losing, in the judgment of the player to incur it, may be imposed.113
: There must always be at least one mutable rule. The adoption of rule-changes must never become completely impermissible.114
: Whatever is not prohibited or regulated by a rule is permitted and unregulated, with the sole exception of changing the rules, which is permitted only when a rule or set of rules explicitly or implicitly permits it.115
: If there is a disagreement between players about the interpretation or application of a rule, anyone may call upon the Moderator in order to settle the dispute. The Moderator must abide by all rules, but when the rules are silent, inconsistent, or unclear on the point at issue, the Moderator will use their own discretion, making sure to consider consider game-custom and the spirit of the game before applying other standards.Spoiler: CURRENT MUTABLE RULES
201
: In order to win, you must score 100 (positive) points.202
: When a new rule is adopted, the player who proposed it receives points equal to the number of votes in favor it received.203
: When a new rule is adopted, every player who voted against it receives 1 point.204
: When a new rule is defeated, the player who proposed it loses 5 points.205
: A rule change (as defined in rule 102) or a rule transmutation from Mutable to Immutable requires a simple majority. 206
: If a player does not post in the game thread for a period of 72 hours, they are not counted towards the number of players in the game. A player may also publicly abstain from a vote, enacting the same effect.207
: An adopted rule-change takes full effect at the moment of the completion of the vote that adopted it.208
: Each player always has exactly one vote.209
: At no time may there be more than 25 mutable rules.210
: If two or more mutable rules conflict with one another, or if two or more immutable rules conflict with one another, then the rule with the lowest ordinal number takes precedence, unless one of the rules explicitly states it takes precedence over the other rule (or a specific type of rule). If two or more rules claim to take precedence over one another or to defer to one another, then the numerical method again governs.211
: If the rules are changed so that further play is impossible, the player(s) with the most points wins.212
: There is one Moderator, Vonflare.Spoiler: PROPOSALS THAT CAN BE VOTED ON

The winner of the duel shall win the specified number of points from the other player if the moderator certifies that the duel was run fairly.0 votes

307
: Cursed Aztec Gold (abbr. CAG, icon:

or all of the Cursed Aztec Gold they have.Vonflare will be the banker in charge of tracking how much Cursed Aztec Gold everyone has, in the event he makes a public post stating he doesn't want the responsibility, Aronis will take over as banker.
The banker may not purposefully lie about the amount of gold someone has or purposefully engage in any behaviors that are considered unethical while performing their duty as banker.
