Now that giko.py lives on the Giko server it would also be fairly trivial to have her generate a webpage that lists users and balances publicly, eg at https://gikopoi.com/wealth/ I think it's a little fun to only see the 5 wealthiest via !wealth and other balances having to be requested manually, eg via "!balance player", but I'm open to all perspectives on this. It can be argued that a public list of all balances could risk many non-tripcoded having their wealth stolen by less ethical gikos but I don't think this is entirely an issue. |

Akai, our chair of economic music, is working on a way to address the inflation issue of gikopoi -- finding a way to consume coins permanently for a use in a different sort of game that takes into mind principles learned from systems of "progressive taxation" From a different angle, it cannot be denied that if coins lost by gambling ended up in a special wallet, giko.py would probably have more coins than all other users combined. If coins lost gambling ended up in a special account, what would be interesting ways to make use of these coins? Maybe each week people with a balance of at least X gikocoins could vote for a user to receive a percent of the "pot", eg 5% Maybe each week, people could buy lottery tickets for a chance to win some random percentage of the pot, eg between 3% and 50% -- akin to the US "powerball" system or something like "keno" The most creative and fun answer will be the one implemented. |
