The point of this page is to try to get as many game designers as many people as possible to co-design a game wiki-style. Perhaps the process of designing will become a game in itself (a meta-game) with the final game as a by-product ? In which case what are the rules of the meta-game ? I propose ...

The Game

1. Once per game, each player may roll a six-sided die.

2. If every player has rolled the die, the player (or players) who rolled the highest number chooses another player to eliminate.

2a. However, they may not choose the player (or players) who rolled the lowest number, unless all other players rolled the same number.

The Metagame

1. Any designer may take a turn in the metagame, unless the most recent turn was also taken by them.

2. As their turn, a designer may add, remove or alter a single rule from either the Game or the Metagame, and post a comment to the forum thread explaining their change.
