Behold * Spork Nomic

A nomic is a type of game where the rules change as players submit proposals and everyone votes.

Spork Nomic is a community nomic that houses several subgames: Global Thermonuclear War; MicroSpork, nomic within nomic; Spork Galaxies, with a map and constantly moving ships; and Spork Chess, multi-player chess now in its seventh round.

New games can be created by Proposal or Contract at any time.
