Notes and Ribbons were both descended from Voting Credits. VCs had
colors (like Ribbons), but you could earn multiple instances of each
color (like Notes), and you could spend a few of different colors to
affect voting limits (like Notes) and/or save up for a Win by Palette
(like Ribbons, though no one ever managed it). They were split a
couple weeks before you first registered.
For a few months, there were also Marks (essentially transferrable
centi-VCs), which might be worth resurrecting in some form if someone
was willing to do the recordkeeping:
(proposals)
+1 for voting, another +1 if your votes actually affect the
adoption index, +10 to both author and opponent if a proposal
is adopted with only one player voting AGAINST
-5 for not voting if a voting period is extended for lack of quorum,
-10 to both author and supporter if a proposal meets quorum but is
rejected with only one non-author player voting FOR
(offices)
+1 per month for office without report (if someone deputised for it,
it goes to them)
(judicial cases)
+1 for initiating, +1 for being on a panel that judges
-1 (and lose the +1 above) for initiating excess, -1 to caller if
case judged IRRELEVANT / OVERLOOKED / ALREADY TRIED / UNIMPUGNED
(regained if later overturned), -1 for being on a panel that gets
recused, -<error rating> to prior judge for concurring opinion
(other)
+2*floor(Agora's age)+1 for acknowledging the observance of Agora's
Unbirthday (an in-joke referencing some family events on my end)
