Surely this will be the game that kills us all.

The entire game is rules lawyering.

This MUST be played.

From the PA Nomic thread:
"Jesus christ, did two people just get banned for forgetting to capitalize "Motion"?"

That is why we must play Nomic.

I love that they link Calvinball as a prominent nomic. Greatest game ever.

Truly it is the greatest game to ever exist.

No. Nomic is a twisted version of Calvinball, and as such, should not be played for fear of blasphemy.

Calvinball is a Nomic. Nomic is not a calvinball.

Nomic takes the theory behind Calvinball and creates a system by which the theory can be applied to other sorts of things.

NOMIC!
