NOMIC -- Self-Modifying Game From: donaldw313@aol.com (DonaldW313) Date: Tue, 10 May 1994 02:56:08 +0000 NOMIC is a multiplayer game that is played by changing its rules. Originally featured in the May 1983 Scientific American, it is also listed in Douglas Hofstaeder's book, "Metamagical Themas". The victory conditions that come in it consist of either accumulating points by successfully chaning rules, or changing the rules to the point that the game can no longer be played. Of course, the victory conditions are among the rules that can be changed... If anyone is interested, please email donaldw313@aol.com. If there is sufficient interest I will start a game.
