User blog:Nichdel/META: On The Move Here

We've come a long way from the beginning. Now that we're on wikia there's a few more administrative details to cover. Please read this and make a post below identifing yourself and such, so I know when everyone has read this. Game State: As it turns out, the wording of Mandates Again prevented me from giving myself mandates. Thus, the next round is 5-6. As a note, my score may appear to have gone up because I just noticed a Betting Pool that should have been resolved forever ago.

Format: I'd like to propose that the format for all game action is as follows. Each independent game action/event is posted as its own blog post, prefixed with the type of action/event (GAME, PROPOSAL, CFJ, ROUND, PROTO,SPEAKER,DRAGON-SPEAKER...).

This will work well with the existing rule requirements. A round will begin in a blog post titled "ROUND: 5-6 Begins," and will include a summary of the events of the last round, the quorum, and whatever else is relevant for a round. Proposals will each get their own post titled "PROPOSAL: Optional Title," at the end of the proposal period, the current text of each PROPOSAL post that was made since the proposal round began will be collected and put into more or less the same format we used on reddit. Voting will occur there (now that voting is not private, there is no reason it can't).

Wiki Pages: Right now the ruleset is ugly, but it's here. It will be cleaned up soon. The playerlist is in a similar boat. Offices are not yet present, but I'll likely start adding them soon. I'd also like to create a encyclopedia on the wiki, with pages such as Encyclopedia:Quorum or Encyclopedia:Nomic that explain terminology used within the game, give people links to other things, are just generally interesting to passerbys without being a legal part of nommit.

Moving Forward: Once I know you're all present, I'll start assign mandates to get the ball rolling. As for keeping track of activity here, I recommend bookmarking the activity feed, the blog, and/or the front page.
