Well, if they're 0-party contracts, we're basically making them player entities with tradable controls, and there's no reason to make them contracts at all, we could just make a new type of entity. I was thinking myself that requiring members offers a double-dynamic of allowing the members of the corporations somewhat responsible to shareholders; e.g. contracts that are more likely to add value to the game would have a stronger share price (benefiting the members that start with a controlling stake). But maybe this is dreaming and we should just make some straight-out zombies. What do you think? -Goethe
