After discussion on irc, it has been proposed that a LW game of Nomic would be fun.

Anyone interested? I think an email game is the way to go.

I'm interested though more as an observer, for old times' sake. (I was an active Agora and FRC player for years.)

Yay, yet another LW-spinoff mailing list. ISTM that anytime the LW community has to spin off a mailing list, that's another sign that there's something broken about the current forum implementation. There should be an easier way to spin off "subreddits" instead.

"Subreddits" were discussed here and you can see there some of the pros and cons.

Personally, I would support subreddits. I've been involved in one or two spinoff mailing lists, and it seems a shame that the content of those posts is not available to all on the LW site, if they want to read through them.

I'd be quite happy to do things here, but there's no natural place for it and I suspect it'd be unpopular and considered "offtopic".

Definitely.

I'm sort of interested depending on how much time/commitment is needed, and how much it'll spam my inbox.

I'm interested.

I'm interested.
