Which got me thinking, what if it was like a Nomic? Imagine cloning an exact copy of Wikipedia on another server. Then have 2 player teams: bad guys and good guys. The bad guys edit/write articles to cover their tracks. The good guys scour articles and article histories trying to uncover the truth. Maybe there needs to be a "game master" team that does some type of moderation? I don't know, just spit balling here. Too crazy? [Nomics]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nomic

There's Agora Nomic [1] which has been active for many years but I find it rather tedious to get into ongoing Nomic games.

I have had a few fun Nomic games on Etherpad + IRC, but it's difficult to find people interested in playing realtime Nomic these days.
