I thought it went well. It's probably quite a niche audience who want to play nomic in the first place, and as a first game everyone really is unfamiliar with the format and how to direct it. It's completely the game that you make it, and it was fun too see how much people leaned into the varying aspects (game creation vs novelty rules vs lawyering).

There were two Aberrations players, and both were relatively active in game B)

Aberrations FTW!

Sad that this didn't catch on more, it was a very fun idea.

20 pages of funny spitballing and ruleslawyering ain't bad, all things considered. I definitely had fun! Thanks, OR.

I was an Aberration.

I thought as much. I still have a PM in my drafts asking OR to investigate you, I only realised before hitting send that I couldn't afford the request, and as my name had changed mid-game I couldn't pinch points from other players. When you nerfed my last rule suggestion I knew for sure, but I also knew the game was up for me then.

Only real "play" I made was to corrupt Dan around the time people seemed to be starting to do more investigating, hoping to throw some suspicion on his self proclaimed Investigator status!

Jen sent a the corruption like 10 minutes after Balla sent an investigation and I wasn't sure how that should have played out

I tried to pass a rule clarifying that after I realised this. :lol:

Haha, yeah I suspected that Balla had got an investigation in and was kicking myself as I had intended to send the corruption earlier!
