One of the games that dominated Agoran play for a full year was the Agoran Agricultural Association (AAA). It was a farming game. You could buy plots to farm digits (the digits 0-9). They took time to farm, and so you could have a stockpile of digits. Whenever a CFJ was officially judged, Proposal (distributed or adopted? forget which) or a rule numbered, you could cash in digits in your stockpile to get rewards. Took some anticipation, trading, stocking, etc. I think you got bonuses for combos (number of digits you traded in for a single CFJ, etc.) Right now, in CFJ land we've just left the 3400s for the 3500s. 3s still have a constant regular value, but the 4 market has dropped a bit while 5s have picked up. We were really, really into it. Also: we've mused on ideas for owning Rules, so that whenever a Rule is amended, etc., the owner gets something. Never did it but it could be fun.
