Well, It is now my turn.

I think it is clear that a lot of us are losing interest in this game.

I propose that we start a new game using only the three rules as was done in the first Nomic. This would probably make it go a lot faster and I think it would be much more interesting.

No, a vote is in progress

I’m down, but I haven’t lost interest in this, I just haven’t been on in general. 
 

I do not support 308

Is that my 308 or the un-numbered proposal by Truthwatcher?

Everybody who had not voted, became an inactive. This lead to the vote being failed, and then the turn ending

[+Doomstick he/him]

False, the vote passed unanimously

[theTruthshaper]

You know what? You are right. But it still is my turn

[+Doomstick he/him]

Yes

[+Doomstick he/him]

I am opposed to 309

[theTruthshaper]

And I say we begin the game again. With three rules. Do you agree?

EDIT: It isn't 309. I do have some rules that I think might be interesting but I just felt that everyone had lost interest in the game.

Huh, MetaTerminal, hasn't been online since Monday, are they on Discord?

[+Doomstick he/him]

Yes

I think starting over is a good idea, it would attract a lot more people to play if it was simple.

Honestly, we could have 2 threads and 2 games going. A simple game and this one.

i agree to this.

If you want to start another game, go make a new thread. Nothing is stopping you.

[theTruthshaper]

It wouldn't be any good if you people won't come? I thought that since you all were not posting, maybe you had lost interest

[theTruthshaper]

P309: People must include one photo of a cute animal in all of their posts.  Failure to do so will lead to points being reset to zero.

What do you think of this one?

I’m fine to either start again or continue this one - if it were my decision and all things left aside I’d probably go for the second one, but it’s not just up to me.

Sorry, I’ve been busy and haven’t been able to be online for a few days. I’m back now.

Personally, I think it would be better for Truth to make a few proposals that set up some game mechanics (beyond weird stipulations, like actual mechanics with difficulty and competition - maybe look at other forum games for ideas? we could maybe just straight up copy one of those!) so we can, essentially, ‘start over’ without abandoning the work we’ve built up to start. Then once we have a game going we can then start altering that base game so the Nomic part starts being more fun. Basically: let’s get out of the weeds and into the game part!

Off the top of my head, maybe Codenames, but really any game might work.

308 passed, 307 didn’t. I support 309.

Also also: we lost xino, but it appears all the players are back and interested in continuing, so we could definitely revitalise this one!

Should I open voting for 309? Does anyone want to make minor changes?

@Danex , are you still up?

What happened to xino and should we create a new doc, if he is not coming back?

Unfortunately. 
 

I don’t like 309, I’d forget and lose all my hard earned 10 points.

[theTruthshaper]

You know what? You are right. 

P309: People must include one photo of a cute animal in all of their posts.  Failure to do so will lead to loss of one third of the persons points.

 

I want the penalty to keep increasing as we play. I think that one-third points would be a correct ratio to lose

 

Should I open this to voting? @Gears

Sure, but maybe you should stipulate that the photo has to be under a spoiler tag for those who have low bandwith.

I don't think that's a good idea. Really, it just makes the game harder to play. 

Why a penalty? We still only have one way of earning points, one not very fast.

This is the whole point of this rule. I feel the game is uninteresting right now because nothing is happening. I don't know about you, but playing parliament is no fun to me.

I will remove the penalty, if you can offer some other way of punishing transgressions.
