[Spoon-business] Rewards for scamming


I propose:

{{
__Scams__

A. Definition
A Scam is any attempt by a player to achieve an instant win in any online game of Nomic by circumventing the spirit, but not the wording, of one or more rules, utilizing a loophole in one or more rules, or utilizing an unforseen interaction between two or more rules. The player(s) who wins as a result of a scam is the Scammer of that Scam.

Each scam performed in B Nomic is to be named. No Scam may share a name with another Scam.

B. Titles
After each successful Scam in B Nomic, titles are to be awarded to involved players in the following fashion:

The Scammers recieve the title "Lord of the XXXX Scam," with "XXXX" replaced with the name of the scam.

Any players whose words, actions, or proposals led to the player who won coming up with the scam are awarded the title "Knight of the XXXX Scam," with "XXXX" replaced with the name of the scam. These players should be identified by the Scammers.

Any players who attempted to stop the scam, argued unsuccessfully against the legality of the scam, or attempted to undo the scam and failed are awarded the title "Pawn of the XXXX Scam," with "XXXX" replaced with the name of the scam. These players should be identified by consensus.

C. Rewards
On the next Ballot after a Scam, all players other than the Scammers should rate the Scam on a scale from 0 to 20 on how Stylish it was. All Scammers are awarded a number of Style Points equal to the average of these ratings, rounded to the nearest integer.

D. Guerrila Warfare
B Nomic players are encouraged to perform Scams in other games of Nomic. If a player shows proof of a Scam they performed in another game, that player recieves 15 Style and the title "Lord of the XXXX YYYY Scam," with "XXXX" replaced with the whole name of the other Nomic [[B Nomic, Nomicron, The Curvature Of The Earth Is Overwhelmed By Local Noise Nomic]], and with "YYYY" replaced with the name the Scammer has given to the Scam.
