Players may register by a public message; after that, they take turns (making a

repeal, or transmute exactly one rule. Votes are also by private messages to 
me. (There is no AGAINST vote; proposals pass as soon as the required 
percentage of registered players vote for.) I'll publish the hashes of any 
proposals that I receive, and announce when proposals pass, but proposal text 
and the resulting ruleset are secret. When sending proposals, it would be nice 
if you could include its SHA256 hash, so I can ensure that I calculate it the

I intend, with 2 Consent, to initiate a free tournament with the following 
regulations.

1. Gaelan can not win the Tournament, nor become a player within the 
tournament. Gaelan is the Gamemaster and Judge of this Tournament.

2. This tournament shall be known as "Nomaoic."

3. This Tournament is governed by these regulations and by its rules, the 
initial set of which are included in these regulations; the rules may be 
amended from time to time as specified by the rules themselves. These 
regulations take precedence over the tournament rules; it is IMPOSSIBLE for the 
state of the tournament to change such that the rules claim precedence over 
these regulations. The Gamemaster SHALL abide the tournament rules. Tournament 
players SHOULD do so, but shall not be penalized for failure to do so through 
means external to the tournament.

4. The Judge has sole authority to interpret the rules, and shall do so in an 
equitable manner, with emphasis placed on the intent of the clauses and the 
fair treatment of all parties.

5. While the tournament is ongoing, any Agoran player may, in accordance with 
the rules of the tournament, become a player within the tournament. Any person

when the tournament begins. The Initial Set consists of Rules 101-116 
(immutable) and 201-215 (mutable).

102. Initially rules in the 100's are immutable and rules in the 200's are 
mutable. Rules subsequently enacted or transmuted (that is, changed from 
immutable to mutable or vice versa) may be immutable or mutable regardless of 
their numbers, and rules in the Initial Set may be transmuted regardless of 
their numbers.

103. A rule-change is any of the following: (1) the enactment, repeal, or 
amendment of a mutable rule; (2) the enactment, repeal, or amendment of an 
amendment of a mutable rule; or (3) the transmutation of an immutable rule into 
a mutable rule or vice versa.

104. All rule-changes proposed in the proper way shall be voted on. They will 
be adopted if and only if they receive the required number of votes.

105. Every player is an eligible voter.

106. All proposed rule-changes shall be sent to the Gamemaster before they are 
voted on. If they are adopted, they shall guide play in the form in which they 
were voted on.

107. No rule-change may take effect earlier than the moment of the completion 
of the vote that adopted it, even if its wording explicitly states otherwise. 
No rule-change may have retroactive application.

108. Each proposed rule-change shall be given a number for reference. The 
numbers shall begin with 301, and each rule-change proposed in the proper way 
shall receive the next successive integer, whether or not the proposal is 
adopted.

If a rule is repealed and reenacted, it receives the number of the proposal to 
reenact it. If a rule is amended or transmuted, it receives the number of the 
proposal to amend or transmute it. If an amendment is amended or repealed, the 
entire rule of which it is a
