■ 🕑 1. What to do with "burnt" gikocoins?
│ 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.
│
├─■ 🕑 2.
│ 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.
│

│ options are
│ 1) have any gikocoin spent go on a separate file than the bank.txt
│ or
│ 2) make an exception where giko.py doesn't appear in rankings.
│
│ Now if that money (on the txt file or belonging to giko.py)
│ is to be used for a pot of gold lotto type system, that would be cool.
│
│ Yeah make giko.py run a lottery with that money, perhaps?
│
├─■ 🕑 4.
│ All money collected should be equally distributed to the gikoteriate.
│ Also the top 5 wealthiest Gikos should be summarily executed on the second
│ of every month.

everytime the amount of coins reach a certain value, everyone turns into giko gold.
