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."

nay
kasimax (243 D)
30 Jul 14 UTC
aye: soc (1/5)
nay: kasimax, jamiet (2/5)
kasimax (243 D)
30 Jul 14 UTC
and decided.

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.

Nomic Members: kasimax, jamiet99uk, President Eden, socrates dissatisfied, ag7433
Jamiet99uk (808 D)
30 Jul 14 UTC
Three votes for nay. It passes. We are not taking turns.

Rule proposal: Each Nomic Member may only propose one rule change / amendment / deletion per hour.
kasimax (243 D)
30 Jul 14 UTC
sounds good so far. how do you want to track this? i guess one at 03:57 and one at 04:02 would be fine. how do we word this?

Proposal: To be a Nomic Member, new players must have backing by at least one Nomic Member
Jamiet99uk (808 D)
30 Jul 14 UTC
How I worded it is fine. You can see the exact time at which everyone posts. Once you've posted a rule proposal, you can't post another one for one hour.
Jamiet99uk (808 D)
30 Jul 14 UTC
I vote in favour of ag7433's proposal.
kasimax (243 D)
30 Jul 14 UTC
alright. i vote in favour, and in favour of ag's rule as well.
kasimax (243 D)
30 Jul 14 UTC
ag's proposal is decided.

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.

Nomic Members: kasimax, jamiet99uk, President Eden, socrates dissatisfied, ag7433

Jamiet99uk (808 D)
30 Jul 14 UTC
Proposal: All Nomic Members whose username does not start with a capital letter gain 50 nomic pointz
Jamiet99uk (808 D)
30 Jul 14 UTC
(this would give ag7433 and kasimax 50 nomic pointz each, but no-one else)
i vote against the one hour rule.

strange proposal the fifty pointz one.
kasimax (243 D)
30 Jul 14 UTC
i think it's time for a rule how to deal with inactive players. this is not an issue yet, but if a few others join, this could become worrysome.
i vote against this proposal too.
i propose that anyone that does not post for 24 hours loses the right to vote until 24 hours after their most recent post. this excludes new members.

Rule proposal: Nomic points can be accumulated through +1s on this thread
kasimax (243 D)
30 Jul 14 UTC
the problem is, looking back and seeing who isn't active is really not that easy on this forum. but i guess there's not really any other way to do this.
kasimax (243 D)
30 Jul 14 UTC
i like guak's rule and back him in. i vote in favour of his proposal.


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.

Nomic Members: kasimax, jamiet99uk, President Eden, socrates dissatisfied, ag7433, guak
i would suggest that guak changes his proposal to be 'pointz' not points, before it potentially gets passed.
kasimax (243 D)
30 Jul 14 UTC
i second said suggestion.
Jamiet99uk (808 D)
30 Jul 14 UTC
I third SD's suggestion and it passes.

I also vote in favour of Guak's suggestion, with SD's amendment (which we just passed), so I think that passes too.

RULES:

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. Nomic pointz can be accumulated through +1s on this thread.

Nomic Members: kasimax, jamiet99uk, President Eden, socrates dissatisfied, ag7433, guak

Rule proposal: 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.
jamie, we now need 4 votes for anything to pass, so the ammendment has not yet passed?
Jamiet99uk (808 D)
30 Jul 14 UTC
Oh, you're right. My mistake.
I vote for jamie's proposed rule.

I propose that any rule proposal that has not passed or been rejected within 24 hours of being suggested becomes rejected automatically.
Jamiet99uk (808 D)
30 Jul 14 UTC
I vote for that.
semck83 (229 D(B))
30 Jul 14 UTC
I would like to play, and immediately vote for jamiet's proposed one-hour rule if I am backed in. I also vote against SD's 24 hour rule (once again -- if allowed in).
i back semck to join
also, semck, i have suggested 2 24 hour rules, so need to be specific
semck83 (229 D(B))
30 Jul 14 UTC
Thank you SD. To be clear, I was voting against SD's first 24-hour rule, not his most recent one.

I propose that any rule, except this one, will after twelve hours start to accrue 10 D per hour for its original proposer, for as long as it remains in effect.
