What is the incentive for a dungeon master in a game of old school
pencil-and-paper D&D game? It works there because it is not a
traditional game. You don't sit down and play for X amount of time
until a winner is declared. Nomic is similar in that aspect. Yes, here
you can "win", but that isn't the driving force of the game (well, I
don't know, other people might disagree on this one)

Yeah, this should not be considered now, it is an idea. Of course,
people might think of this as very anti-nomic as it might take away a
certain spirit of the game.
