Spells and abilities cost more to cast, where X is their casting cost.
And now tapping a land is worth...an actual half-mana? The rules don't support that, and outside of Un-land they clearly never will.
Formulating a way for this to work is tricky, since mana abilities are activated in discrete increments of 1, but this should do it: "As an additional cost for each player to tap a land for mana, that player taps another untapped land he or she controls."

I think a strict reading of the rules means that tapping lands for mana is now pointless: each adds 1 mana, halved and rounded down to 0.

The obvious simpler way to word it is to apply it as a sales tax instead - "Spells and abilities cost twice as much"
