We've had a persistent problem recently where we keep repealing the economy and not replacing it with anything, and subgames have generally had a hard time starting. So Agora has been fairly quiet. (There have been a couple of attempts to make new economies, but they failed due to, e.g., not having the officer power to track them. The economy before that failed because it rewarded players for making passing proposals and that ended up excessively distorting voting patterns as players tried to deny each other rewards. IMO the fix to this sort of problem is to make economic wins uncompetitive, so that there's no reason for players to deny each other wins, but it didn't happen.) -- ais523
