Nomic:Game 2005-04-02:Summary of first year
From Carls wiki
Player participation
The game got to a slow start due to Bjarni not making a proposal. After Jonathan had joined the game, he made a proposal instead. Today, it is dubious whether a player's turn could be transferred by another player joining the game.
Proposals
Nine proposals were accepted (green circles) during the year, and nine were rejected (red circles). The circles are located on the approximate date they were made, not when the vote finished. The pace has slowed somewhat during the spring of 2006, mainly due to much discussion and many judgements.
