Alright, we have thrown around acting on behalf, card games, and the like.
I think we need a good substrate. We currently think that rules as items is
too involved, rewards proposals too much, so we are straying away from that.
We have golems being tossed around, as we don't know what else to do, but
it is as a replacement for promises and contracts, which kinda fit for what
we're doing right now...
I think we need ways to lightly play with voting power, but only a little
bit more than stones currently does. And I think we need ways to limit how
proposals are submitted? I hear a lot of talk about how great Sets was, and
it had both of these, a way to win, but also a way to play with blots. This
also factored in birds, but it was also, unfortunately, based on a currency
(boatloads), which was a good system, but overall we wanted to move away
from number go up and economics.
So I'm thinking, we move back to TCG?
As a test of this system, I am thinking this could be the contract (since
contracts are a little more flexible), and I am willing to sacrifice myself
for it. I think more interesting card types could exist if this were a rule
though, but there's still plenty of ability here just playing in
contract-land.
