Okay, I took another look at the rules and
proposals...

R1637 was created by p1596.  R1 was modified by p1597.
 Does that mean the world's nations' laws were
repealed prior to B Nomic becoming a nation, since
p1596 got passed before p1597?  Or were the rules not
active since the clock was off, and therefore both
rules became active at once when the clock went back
on?

While the ruleset uses words such as "simultaneous" to
describe events within the vote-tallying period, there
nevertheless is precedent for the results of one
proposal affecting the possibility of applying the
results of a later proposal in the same nweek.  If so,
the world's laws were wiped before B Nomic officially
became part of the world.

Then again, is r1637 supposed to represent some steady
state, so that the world's rules are wiped in
perpetuity?  If so, doesn't that prevent there being a
C Nomic too? :)
