Re: [spoon-discuss] Pretty. What do we blow up first?


From: "Baron von Skippy" <baronvonskippy@xxxxxxxxxxx>
I think I've come across an interesting back door in various Nomics that would allow the utter destruction or minor screwing with of the rulesets of other Nomics, although that's up for debate.

I'd rather not have the first thing B Nomic does with a bunch of other nomics be the destruction or screwage of said nomic. Not the best foot to step out on, in my mind. I'd rather have something more social or productive before we get into that stuff.

On another note, I just thought of another way to have inter-nomic relations: have events in one nomic cause events in another. For example, a rule in another nomic could read as follows:
{{
If the B Nomic player Baron von Skippy is Awarded a Win in B Nomic, each player in this game recieves one (some item). If the B Nomic player uin is Awarded a Win in B Nomic, then for each Motion to Repeal a Rule, an additional vote is cast for it in the affirmative. If the B Nomic player Wonko is Awarded a Win in B Nomic, each player in this game recieves 100 points.

(etc)
}}

And vica versa. And it wouldn't necessarily have to be based on wins or players; perhaps every time a gremlin goes into hiding here, it causes some effect in another game (like, when they're not here, they're somewhere else, or something).

I encourage our ambassador to look into this.
