Background

Quite a long time ago there was a game of Nomic called "The Curvature of the Earth is Overwhelmed by Local Noise Nomic" which had the interesting feature that there was no set list of players that you had to join or leave. Suggested rules could be submitted by anyone at any time, and the Scribe would regularly pick some to implement.

The original ceolnn had two games, each with a defined endpoint; game two began with a stripped-down version of the final rules from game one. There was never a third game. Seven years have passed since end of the second game.

The Earth Is Nonetheless An Oblate Spheroid Nomic (einos) is based on rules derived from the initial rules of ceolnn.
