I will vote yes for PR#19. @Doomstick, does that cause it to pass?

I like the idea of amending proposals, however I am concerned that their text only refers to them failing as proposals. If one were to be passed before its dependent rule, it would be a rule and not a proposal- and in addition, the text would disappear, so it wouldn't be able to remove itself anyways! As a more systemic solution, we should probably create a rule that allows us to propose amendments to proposals directly (without needing the extra text); if the amendment passes, the rule it amends automatically passes as well. That way there will never be dangling amendments. I will aye PR#s 11-14. (Something I forgot is that the Referee/Moderator cannot be allowed to alter the Referee rule, so we should create an amendment for that.) Funny , but oh boy would that be a headache. Nay, I'm afraid. As the first amendment to an active rule, I am curious: how will an amendment be represented on the sheet? I will aye PR#2 16-18.

I fear that people would just cheat, so I'm afraid I will have to vote nay for this (3) and the derivative rule (5). I am of the opinion that more rule proposals is better, so nay. I will vote yea to proposal 6. Money money money. I propose PR 7: The Referee Rule If there isn't a referee, players may vote for a player as referee. Upon a majority vote of more than three players, said player (the referee-elect) may either accept or reject the role of referee. (If 24 hours elapse before they make a decision, they automatically reject.) If the referee-elect rejects the role, all referee votes for them are nullified. If they accept, they become the referee. The referee cannot win the game. If the game state becomes broken for any reason (e.g. an illegal action is taken and not caught immediately), the referee may make an Executive Decision, changing any part of game state they deem necessary to resolve the violation. It is inevitable that someone will break the rules at some point by mistake and no one will realize until a whole bunch of decisions have been made from that point. Having a way to resolve such situations is critical. I also propose PR 8: The Constant Action Rule Each player may make one rule proposal on each other player's turn. Rule proposals made this way may not exceed 50 words or 300 characters. Even with the inactivity rule, 24 hours is a long time to wait. If this rule is implemented, there will always be something for people to do. I also propose PR 9: The Cleanup Rule If a player loses the game, leaves the game, or otherwise concedes, (or has lost, has left, or has conceded) all data relating to that player in the game state is deleted. Although this is the rule in the spreadsheet, technically speaking it doesn't hold for the official game state. If this rule is implemented, we don't have to worry about a desync between the two. (That is to say, once a player leaves they are officially gone.) I also propose PR 10: The Trading Card Rule There are seven trading cards. They are: The Ace of Spades The Two of Wands Three Headed Dragon Black Clover The Ouroboros Beehive Seven-Pointed Star If a player collects all of the trading cards, they win the game. This rule is my proposed win condition for the game. IIRC, most of the other Nomic games were one with a simple points tally. This should be much more interesting. @Doomstick If I count correctly, I believe the rule of limitations is in a 2-2 deadlock. Since I already made my post, I will refrain from proposing a rule to deal with ties: might you? I will also note that there is currently nowhere in the rules that defines when a rule is rejected, only when it is approved. That might be a good thing to add as well. Edit 2: Realized I forgot to aye all my new rules. I officially aye PRs 7-10.

I will join the game and vote yes for the activity ordinance. @Doomstick that should pass the rule, I believe. @Ravenclawjedi42, that means it's your turn now, since @Experience is now inactive.

"Jafek," the Gjx mused. It sounded... familiar? But that was not its name. "I am the Gjx," it corrected her. Suddenly, a recollection flashed. "You are... Jafek's sister?"

Hmm. That didn't seem to have worked. A spark of inspiration suddenly ignited in the mind of the Gjx. Other creatures communicated with boxes in their throats. If the Gjx replicated one of these creatures, it would be able to communicate with them! Satisfied by the thought, it created a copy of one of the oldest creature in its memory. "Hello," said the copy. It looked just like Fervor's brother, but entirely in grayscale.

The Gjx rushed over the ground around the sister, covering the ground around her. Communicate! It needed to communicate. Sound waves were used to communicate, right? It vibrated part of itself, creating a loud roaring sound. No, that wasn't quite it...

The goo came into its awareness suddenly, as though waking up from a dream. As all newborns are, it was rather confused for the first few moments of its existence. Then the memories it had absorbed from its creator began to trickle into its awareness. I am the Gjx, it realized. I will change the world. It was a warm, fuzzy feeling, being important. The Gjx rather enjoyed the idea. I turn what is worthless into that which is not. The Gjx wasn't quite sure what counted as "worthless" and what counted as "not worthless." People were probably the latter category, right? There were a few inside of it that hadn't been assimilated. It spat them out. I should learn more, the Gjx thought. It opened its senses, looking out of every inch of its surface at once. To its surprise, it recognized a face. A sister, it thought. Perhaps she will know more about worth? The Gjx extended a tentacle to follow her. @Experience

Deep in the forest of Efur, in a house hidden by leaves and dirt and sticks, a scientist watched a jar with all the fervor in his tired soul. For twenty long years he had lived isolated and alone, pouring every waking minute into a single project with unshaken devotion. An idea that had come upon him long ago, lodging itself in his mind like a parasite, spreading and growing until it had consumed his entire life. There had been countless nights in those twenty years just like this one- gazing intently at numbers written on a screen, hoping beyond hope that this time would be different, that this time would be the one where his quest would finally end. What he felt now, waiting for the result, was not hope- hope had died years ago. Instead, it was determination. Either it would fail, and he would start over; or it would succeed, and the world would be forever changed. 1.000 read the meter. The scientist stared. Up, he commanded. Go up. 1.000 read the meter. The scientist glanced at his watch. Twenty-nine minutes. If it didn't increase before thirty, it never would. He would have to go back to the drawing board, spend another year of his life in development before getting another chance like this one. At the thought, he felt no despair- only resignation. Twenty-nine minutes and fifty seconds. The scientist glanced back up at the meter- 1.001. His heart stopped. The scientist cried. From what, he didn't know. Joy? Sadness? Relief? He was too tired to sort through his emotions right now. So tired... Perhaps he should rest his eyelids for a second... A tiny stream of gray goo began to pour out of the jar. Then more, then more, then more....
