It was off because the Objnomic bot that maintains the clock on the wiki is still using the old voting rules where voting started on nday 8 and the clock turned off on nday 8 until the ballot was posted. Objnomic is maintained by Wooble who hasn't been active for a while so it hasn't changed.

An important part of B Nomic is that, regardless of what is on the wiki or what the players think the game is like, the gamestate is decided by the rules so if the clock on the wiki is wrong then it doesn't change the actual clock, it just makes it more inconvenient to find the correct value for the clock.


I'll look at the current rules and try to change the script to match.
Unless someone who's actually paying attention wants to take over the
Clock automation, in which case I'll just remove the cron job.
