The Third Era of Now We Nomic was a Discord Nomic that took place on the same server as the second. Planning and voting on initial rulesets began on September 9, 2018, and the game got its official start on September 27.

History

NWN3 began with a rather hefty initial ruleset remarkably similar to Agora Nomic's. Discord user Jacob Arduino#5827 was selected to be the first Speaker of the game.

During NWN3's life, there were many events which caused widespread disinterest in the continuation of the game. For example, when a rule was passed that described that two players would be selected as murderers and they could "kill" anyone they wanted, putting the target out of play for two days, many of the players were killed, leaving them demotivated to continue play.

When the Speaker Jacob Arduino decided to stop enforcing this rule, a Motion of No Confidence was issued by majority vote and the game halted for a week while a Speaker election was held. Discord user Mask#9695, already a contentious figure in the game, was selected for this role. It was at this point that the players decided they wanted to destroy the Speaker-Voter system which restricted how much action the Speaker could take, and turn to an even more democratic system. Widespread reforms took place, but, strangely characteristically, these reforms also took a long time because of constant debugging.

By the time the game had finally been modified to the point that players would have been happy with the way it worked, enthusiasm completely died off and the game lulled into idleness.
