Nomic: Wiki Edition --- Finished (More or Less)

I'm still here

I'm good with the battle system here, though admittedly I tend to be easy to please.

[Ircher]

Attempting to escape has a 15% base chance to succeed.

This is far too low of a chance to flee. Just make it where boss monsters cannot be fled from at all if we want to prevent people avoiding enemies as much as possible. The chance should be at least 33%, and I'd argue that 50% or even 75% would lead to a more pleasant experience. At 15%, there is no reason to even try to escape. The rest looks pretty good to me.

[Ircher]

Also, this is totally on me as I haven't been paying attention, but another election should have started on the 8th. We can probably just go with it starting on the 12th UTC instead (since it is well past the 8th). StrangerCoug would be the one presiding again.

[Jake The Wolfie]

Nah, everyone tied for 1st with an astonishing unanimous count of 0 votes each.

Make it a motion before SC replaces the entire board.

[Ircher]

You can make the motion, though I guess you are correct.

[lendunistus]

also, to answer Coug’s question earlier about starting health and mana, that is left to the Dungeon Keeper to decide

[lendunistus]

deimos is inactive unfortunately so we can’t pass anything

[Ircher]

We can pass motions technically.

[lendunistus]

We can pass motions technically.

that’s true, the rule that says 5 active players are required only mentions proposals, not motions

we also desperately need players right now. I could promote this game in some other places I’m in if you’d like me to do that

[Ircher]

That would be great. I would love to have some more players!

[Deimos27]

I'm pleased to see that some comprehensive proposals have been brought forth. Sadly I've no intention to read them at this time but consider this post my return to activity so that you lot can keep playing

Question of the Day #21

Category: Card games
Question: In the game contract bridge, there is a set priority of suits during the auction phase. Valid bids during the auction phase require either bidding a higher priority suit as the trump suit or bidding more tricks. What is the order of suit priority from lowest priority to greatest priority? (You can also bid no trump suit, but please ignore that for this question.)

We'll start it then, then, and declare voting open.

Clubs, diamonds, hearts, spades

[Ircher]

That is correct!

Motion M011: New players that join while this motion is active receive an additional N$250 beyond that stipulated in rule 316. If that player names a specific player that referred them to the game, then both the new player and the named player receive an additional N$250. This motion lasts seven days (168 hours).

[Jake The Wolfie]

Motion M012: M011 shall become an official rule, and cease to be a motion. It shall be labeled the next available Proposal number (At time of creation of this motion, 352.) This motion shall last 1 second.

[Jake The Wolfie]

This is something you can do, there isn't a rule which forbids non-proposal rules from being created. However, rule 102 would make it inactive (as it has not "passed", whatever that means)
114 also would make M011 mutable

[Jake The Wolfie]

So, the following fuckery has happened:

SC can choose literally anyone to be on the board (including non-player) with the caveat that the head must both not be him and must be a player, and that the board is not Me, them, and Ircher.
We can make motions into rules, but they must "pass" in order to become active.

[Ircher]

Are you going to vote for the motion M011? Also, given that the motion pass threshold and the proposal pass threshold are the same, it doesn't make any sense to me to use a motion to make a motion permanently. Just make it a proposal instead.

[Jake The Wolfie]

Well, we could do that, or we could do a janky hack that gets rules on the board with less than 5 players active.

[Ircher]

We have five active rn.

[StrangerCoug]

VOTE: Yea M011

[lendunistus]

I’ll post links to here in a couple places I’m in (as long as I actually remember to do that)

I won’t Yea the motion until then

[lendunistus]

VOTE: Yea M011

[Ircher]

M011 passes.
