Hehe. In all seriousness, I'm hoping we will keep the game of B going although starting anew with C could present some interesting avenues. I like the framework we have now in terms of the possibilities for group formation (contracts, corps, sock corps in particular) and was thinking that it might be fun to try basing a nomic (C?) predominantly around team play rather than have individuals look out for their own winning potential only. And the thing I like about the sock corps as a conceptual basis for this is that we don't have set teams (they can change rapidly) and that the teams are not exclusive (one can be a member of many teams). I think that might make for some interesting dynamics, where players are more or less free to move from one team to another, or to belong to many teams in equal or different proportions (if of course there's some form of cost to joining a team, involvement in a team roughly corresponds maybe to how much one decides to invest in that team). It's a vague idea thus far but it seems to hold promise.
