Ruleset Proposition 2: WEIRD-QUORUM - META Do we all have to to use the exact format specified by Ruleset 2: WEIRD-QUORUM in our comments (ones other than "ratify" and related)? Meaning, if there's a proposition ruleset, and I want to reply with thoughts on why it might be difficult to implement, or have related thoughts, is that disallowed? I can understand if so. Also, does the game begin now, and if so, will it be one of these scenarios: 1) people replying with proposed modifications to the rules you posted or 2) people replying with out of left field other types of proposals? END META note: I have formatted this comment in accordance with my Ruleset Proposition 3: META-COMMENT
Ruleset Proposition 3: META-COMMENT Terms defined: 'Comment' is referring to the method by which HUBNOMIC is played, using Hubski's commenting system. 3.1 Players shall be allowed to post "META" comments. They shall do so via the following format: (the person writes their Question or Thought) END META'Question' or 'Thought' when used with the META tag is a scenario in which, in a comment, the player is not proposing a ruleset, ratifying nor voting, and is instead asking questions &/or giving feedback.
