I think I might give it a try.
Is it one rule per player or what? |

WEIRD GAME 1
If I do not hear any vetos for the rules as submitted, I will start the game in 2 hours. Would give longer, but come on, we can't take this too seriously :+)
Players:
Legalu
Gaditus
pkwolf54
payton3434
LVBrian
Rules:
♀ = free bid blockade (rounds 2-6)
Pharaoh gets an automatic bid blockade from round 2 on. Pharaoh steals 3 points from anyone breaking this rule. Use of a bid blockade card allows a double bid blockade
۩ = ۩ x 2 (both scoring rounds)
Temples worth double
A = +1 (final scoring round)
1 extra point for every letter A (or a) in a province (at the end of round 6 only).
4Δ = +3 (both scoring rounds)
exactly 4 pyramids and 0 stones in a province at the end of either kingdom is worth 3 bonus points per qualifying province.
0f or 12+f = +3 (both scoring rounds)
an extra 3 points for no farmers or 12+ farmers |

Is it ok if we post our rules as soon as we come up with one? There's no problem if you see other rules before posting your own?
Also, I guess that discriminating rules are not allowed. And discriminating by the player color is a bit questionable too? |

Actually I will kill two birds with one stone. If you join the game it means you don't veto.
Game Name "Oddball Rules #1" password "weird"

Yes, please post a rule when you think of it!
As far as rules that are appropriate.... shoot, I don't care, I personally would just make sure that anything you select doesn't give a random player a huge disadvantage or advantage. :+) |

West or East
Points for pyramids count double on the side with the most pyramids/stones in total. No points scored for pyramids on the other side. |

to clarify.... 5 point and 3 point bonuses for sets and most still count? but you don't score for individual pyramids on the side with fewest pyramids when the smoke clears? |

I did think of suggesting that the player who finishes with the most points loses them all - ie 2nd place wins, but I think that is probably a rule too far!
It could be interesting without any others weird rules applying - maybe my next tournament?

Yes - it wouldn't work for sets, max bonus might be a step too far. |

Lose 1 point for every payout via a coin symbol.
i.e.
Dakhla counts -1 point since it only pays out once.
Abu and Berenike each count -1 point for each round you hold either of them.
Camel provinces count -1 point only if the offering level is 1 or 2.
Using an 8 Gold card counts as -1 point. |
