Question - I don't understand what I did wrong.
Modern Diplomacy II Map - I'm Spain, I have a fleet Seville, Sea of Gibraltar, and an army in Gibraltar. The UK has a fleet in Morocco and that's it. Our fleets bounced in the South Atlantic Sea, I attempted to convoy my army from Gibraltar to Algeria... but it failed.. So why did it fail if the other player didn't touch my unit in Gibraltar & the Sea of Gibraltar?

anyone up for a game of nomic?
from wikipedia: "nomic is a game in which changing the rules is a move. in that respect it differs from almost every other game. the primary activity of nomic is proposing changes in the rules, debating the wisdom of changing them in that way, voting on the changes, deciding what can and cannot be done afterwards, and doing it. even this core of the game, of course, can be changed."

Can someone explain this one to me? Obviously if you haven't posted in 24 hours you're not posting for 24 hours.
it should be can't vote until 24 hours after their next post, and i think it says it that way back on page 3 or whatever, yet i'm going to withdraw my proposal and let us move on to the next one...
ghug (5068 D(B))

Very well, what's next?
semck: I propose that any rule, except this one, will after twelve hours start to accrue 10 pointz per hour for its original proposer, for as long as it remains in effect. (aye: semck, pe. nay: kasimax, ag)
kasimax: we want nice and neat bureaucracy. (aye: kasimax, ag. nay: semck, pe)
pe: This post serves as retroactive and preemptive vouching for any prospective Nomic player. (aye: Eden; nay: soc, semck, ag)

this is the queue. going top down now
so semck's one. i will vote 'aye'

Can someone who is really organized repost all of the rules with all of their amendments, and all of the nomic members?? I can try to figure out how many points everyone has and post those.
ghug (5068 D(B))

I purpose that rule eleven be amended to include amendments.

Otherwise it's exploitable by just amending unrelated things to existing rules.

love the progress, fellow Nomic Members
don't even need to propose that ghug, i think we're supposed to post updated rules, it's just being bothered to do it

1. No dice rolling.
2. First player to accumulate *exactly* 500 nomic pointz wins
3. The winner can only win on a BST weekday.
4. The current players are to be tracked.
5. All proposed new rules, proposed rule changes, or proposed rule deletions require a simple majority (more than half) of those playing, in order to pass - with the proposer automatically presumed to vote in favour unless they state otherwise.
6. Current Players are referred to as Nomic Members.
7. game isn't turn-based.
8. To be a Nomic Member, new players must have backing by at least one Nomic Member.
9. Each Nomic Member may only propose one rule change / amendment / deletion per hour.
10. any rule, amendment or deletion proposal that has not passed or been rejected within 24 hours of being suggested becomes rejected automatically.
11. Only one rule proposal may be open for consideration at any one time. Once a rule proposal has been made, voting on that proposal must be concluded before any other proposal can be made. Furthermore we are resolving the open proposals by a queue, and ghug gets 10 Nomic pointz
12. nomic pointz can be accumulated through +1s on this thread.
13. all Nomic members whose username does not start with a capital letter gain 50 nomic pointz
I think that's correct. not sure.
we are also supposed to have a list of the current members (officially)
unofficially we should probably keep track of the pointz everyone has
players, unless i'm missing some, are:
kasi, jamie, pe, soc, semck, atrum, ag, guak, ghug, ezra, squigs, vashta
Atrum (458 D)
30 Jul 14 UTC
Okay, now that I'm caught up again (I was in a meeting all afternoon), I vote aye for Semcks current proposal on points.
semck: I propose that any rule, except this one, will after twelve hours start to accrue 10 pointz per hour for its original proposer, for as long as it remains in effect. (aye: semck, pe, atrum, soc. nay: kasimax, ag, ghug, squigs)

Nomic Pointz
ghug - 60
kasimax - 71
ezra willis - 50
ag7433 - 50
jamiet99uk - 50
semck83 - 50
guak - 52
SD - 2
Atrum - 1


Who the heck has +1'd all of kasi's posts??
Squigs44 (273 D)
30 Jul 14 UTC
And those points might be wrong, and are definitely subject to change, just a good update to see how close people are
jamie has 0!
Squigs44 (273 D)
30 Jul 14 UTC
sorry, you are right, I thought that his own rule applied to himself, but apparently not...
i don't know why he wantd to give 50 D to half the people, not including himself, yet there it was
Squigs44 (273 D)
30 Jul 14 UTC
Once all of our current proposals have been cleared up, I think our biggest priority is to streamline our process of proposing and amendments and whatnot. We cant exactly do that right now though, because we cant propose anything.
At the moment, unless i'm mistaken there is an amendment being suggested to limit it to only one rule addition/change/deletion being voted on at once. however the rule is just one rule at a time. each person can only suggest one of anything per hour.

we have not established if we can queue rule suggestions or not (in general past this queueing), all we really know is that there will not be turns to suggest rules.
ghug (5068 D(B))
30 Jul 14 UTC
People should consider voting for my amendment amendment. It's a loophole that should be corrected.
Squigs44 (273 D)
30 Jul 14 UTC
I vote for ghug's amendment
Squigs44 (273 D)
30 Jul 14 UTC
And someone just went through and +1'd some posts on this page, so the points are definitely all wrong now. This is going to be hard to keep track of all the +1's on people.
Jamiet99uk (808 D)
30 Jul 14 UTC
@ SD and Squigs: My proposal to give 50 D to certain people did *not* include me, that is correct. I am, however, not going to discuss my strategy while the game is in progress.
Jamiet99uk (808 D)
30 Jul 14 UTC
I vote against Semck's proposal. I believe this means it is defeated.

What's next in line?
Squigs44 (273 D)

kasimax: we want nice and neat bureaucracy. (aye: kasimax, ag. nay: semck, pe)
pe: This post serves as retroactive and preemptive vouching for any prospective Nomic player. (aye: Eden; nay: soc, semck, ag)
ghug: I purpose that rule eleven be amended to include amendments. (aye: ghug, Squigs)

And I vote nay on Kasi's proposal

ghug: I purpose that rule eleven be amended to include amendments. (aye: ghug, Squigs, ag) - I vote yes!
