Although I do think grok's "If I am still an objector, but my objection

As far as I can tell, nothing prevents people withdrawing other
people's objections, but doing so doesn't do anything (apart from
possibly triggering the 24 hour lockout); objections only cease to be

No one seems to understand what unregulated means. All it means is
that the rules can't say that an action is impossible or prohibited.
It doesn't magically make it possible, or convince the rules to care
about it. All the unregulated/regulated distinction is intended to do
is to prevent the rules from being interpreted so as to stop a player
doing something ordinary, for instance walking down the street. It
doesn't mean that you can suddenly do game actions that you couldn't
before. See also CFJ 2151.

It does concern me that no one is "required" to track objections, even 
if the argument doesn't hold up, it's a place where clarity would be
nice.

I suppose one could make the case that a dependent action, if
successful, requires a recordkeepor to modify a record;  therefore
the action of supporting/objecting "would modify a record" in
the aggregate.

Actually, I think the way it reads, what is tracked is the minimal
amount of support/objections to change the outcome.

It's an interesting possibility.

Cool. I think I'll just tell anyway. I'm not too overly interested in the
subterfuge of it all. I just care mostly about confirming that it *would*
work, that's good enough trophy for me.

"Withdrawing" isn't a regulated action apparently (note that I, as the
initiator, am not required to track any Objections until I actually intend
to complete it, when I need to publish the list, I believe). Or it is, and
since there is no explicit way to do it, nobody can actually withdraw, ever.

So I can just do the unregulated action of "I withdraw your objection"

Several problems. The worst one that you're imposing obligations on a

making the self-ratifying bit optional, although I can see arguments

When I hit the dictionary, I get:
  - forbid, especially by law.
  - denounce or condemn.

Now forbid *could* include IMPOSSIBLE as well as ILLEGAL, but my
reading is that it's more sensible to count it as "illegal" only,
as the law (in common definition of law used above) can't actually
make things impossible.

I just ate lunch.  (1) Was it an action?  I think so, I mean, it was
something I did, by choice.  (2) is it regulated?  not that I can find. 
(3) could Agoran law ever make it illegal?  Sure, in principle Agoran
law could apply a punishment to me for eating lunch, (4) could Agoran
law ever make it impossible?  No.  No matter what is written in the
ruleset, those words could not actually stop me from eating lunch.

Now, on to ice cream.

Suber nomic should be seen in the context of other boardgames.  You don't 
see other boardgames say "first you sit at a table, then you agree who's
playing..." Etc.  You also don't have to say things like "once someone wins,
the game ends."  That's all part of the generic cultural understandings of
playing tabletop games ("painting it green" isn't).  Of course, once you get
into it, the nature of nomic makes one start to question all those assumptions,
but the rules are written assuming people aren't starting out doing so.



Re: DIS: Re: BUS: [Thesis] Actions in Nomic

2017-05-28 Thread CuddleBeam
- The thesis is pretty much about Agora nomic specifically, so please
change the title.

- "Interestingly, Suber’s ruleset leaves very basic actions such as joining
or leaving the game unregulated allowing them to occur in any manner."

This is a bizarre point which I wish could be expanded on. What makes the
verbs "join" or "leave" special? ("to join" doesn't even explicitly exist
as a word anywhere! And its abstract!).

As much as I can "join" that nomic, I could also "paint it green". Or "kill
it". Or "make it a living being", then "pat its head", then "kill it".

Or "block anyone from joining": Or "forcibly make everyone else leave
(un-join)". Or:

"forcibly make everyone else leave (un-join), by just thinking of it."

Now congrats, you're the only player of that Nomic but nobody is aware of
that except you. Don't worry about those players looking like they're still
playing the Nomic, they just seem to but actually aren't.

It's totally insane that you can actually do those unknowable actions and
they're entirely legal by your reasoning there.

And maybe it actually is entirely true. I'd just like to have the subject
touched because of how explosive and powerful it is, which makes it seem
important to me (perhaps also include Agora's explicit rules of how actions
are secured/need to be declared to avoid this).
