       Amend Rule: Add more Rules to Keep Sub Nomics in Line
       By: JamesSupreme Date: January 13, 2011, 10:07 pm
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Add:
       3) All Nomics must include a voting procedure. All players
       do not have to vote, however. Also, if there is only one active
       player, the Nomic may not be played.
       4) A player has a choice to be active or inactive in any
       Nomic. Active players have the rights to gain points, vote, etc.
       Inactive players can not vote, gain points, etc. Also, there
       will be no cruel or unusual punishment for being inactive in any
       Nomic.
       5) All Nomics must have a dictator and all players must be
       able to become dictator.
       6) All Nomics (excluding the Supreme Nomic) are denied the
       right to create or amend rules to suppress a specific player or
       group of players. The Supreme Nomic is exempt to allow rules to
       be passed banning certain acts which may suppress certain
       groups.
       7) All Nomics must allow free speech though a player is not
       allowed to openly speak out against the Supreme Nomic. Doing so
       will result in a hearing based off of treason. A player may be
       allowed to speak about the Supreme Nomic in a correct, civil
       manner.
       8 ) All Nomics must follow all rules and regulations laid
       out in the Supreme Nomic. Not doing so will result in
       Chairmanous Reprimandment. Chairmanous Reprimandment is defined
       as creating a Hearing about the situation.

       Before I declare my vote and reasoning, I would like to state
       that the proposal is well-intentioned and still works as pass.
       But for the sake of discussion, and not just passing a rule to
       be amended later like patchwork, I stand opposed to this
       proposal for the following reasons:
       3) This is redundant; it is covered in S7.1.B of the Supreme
       Nomic Ruleset
       4) We could expand on this. I don't think it needs to expressly
       be required to have the two lists, but inactive players need to
       be preserved.
       5) I think there should be a rule saying this, specifically
       allowing for some possibility (however small).
       6) Why can't sub-nomics have the right of oppression, while the
       Supreme Nomic does? Shouldn't each nomic have the rights to do
       whatever their majority wishes?
       7) Once again, nomics should have the right to do whatever their
       people, and dictators, decide.  Without this fundamental right
       of nomics, the right that the games IS DETERMINED BY THOSE
       PLAYING, nomic is pointless.
       8) Now THATS something I can get behind.

       Okay.
       3) I realize this is redundant but I did it this way in hopes
       that my next move would be to add S7 as part of this rule. If
       you want to do that now, we can and replace 3).
       4) Would you rather have it where it states something along the
       lines of "A player has a choice to be active or inactive in any
       Nomic. Active players have the rights to gain points, vote, etc.
       Inactive players can not vote, gain points, etc. Also, there
       will be no cruel or unusual punishment for being inactive in any
       Nomic."? I'm sure we can coome up with something better. Any
       ideas?
       5) Stay the same. I feel that it allows the Nomics to come up
       with their own ways to do so. (Assassinations, point score, or
       whatever.)
       6) If you argue that fact, then we should just shut down the
       Supreme Nomic altogether. The Supreme Nomic seem sto be the rule
       set to govern the others. If we leave everything that happens in
       the sub-Nomics up to the players, then there's no point for a
       Supreme Anything. I feel that the suppression of players is not
       a fair way to play games. For example, In Martin's Nomic, they
       want to pass a rule saying that all players named Tim can only
       speak in clicks and whistles. This would be in violation of this
       rule. Now, considering that rule was knocked down by the Supreme
       Nomic, a group of players begin to just ignore Tim without any
       rule in place. I feel that this rule should allow the Supreme
       Nomic to step in and get them to quit or face charges -- Right?
       7) Out of all of these, I was just going to see how this would
       end up. Probably by the time this comes into power, I won't be
       in power so don't worry about that. haha.
       8 ) Should we define the Dr. Seussesque Chairmanous
       Reprimandment?

       Also, we could add (I'm not sure if this would be the place to
       put this but...)  9) All Nomics, when passing a new rule or
       amendment, once the rule is passed, there may be no earmarks
       added to it. All additions that are wanting to be made must be
       done through Amendment proposals.

       Sure thing.
       3) Whatever works, we'll figure something out.
       4) That seems fair, draft out what that would look like.
       5) I think that each ruleset should specifically outline how to
       become ruler, to keep it interesting and give players a goal.
       6) Okay, okay. I was just being argumentative :P
       7) Now that I'm ruling, I like this rule a lot more ;) but in
       all seriousness, lets think about this before we vote on it.

       I updated this... kind of. If you want to update it, you can
       just modify the message.

       Like the updates... changing 5) to call it Dictator to make it
       consistent with the rest of the ruleset.
