Game Dynamics
- White = money, energy, electricity, good things
- Grey = waste, co2, bad karma
- Rainbow = local currency created on a bonding curve with 4x leverage (proposed by player)
- Tax of 2 white per turn (rolled)
- proposal for next game Town COUNCIL: do you want to use a credit union?
Scenario
A valley with two small towns united in the same administrative unit. Climate is dry. The township on the right has a pumping station from a close by lake.
first things on the map
- Fish restaurant with a boat
- coffee plantation
- solar plant
- customer production farm
Happenings
Local currency
- allows to buy local preferencing to buy local
- mapping values
Discussion
- How can one business start a local currency? Vouchers. People will recognize the use. The issuer can be beside a group or an agreement that is independent and recognized as tread-ready
- Propose that lone valley ridge to create a new currency, the rainbow currency, the city puts 5W to generate 20R (at 4x leverage) that are distributed to the participants to save some from starvation
- Alternative: Proposal to turn municipal account to cooperative credit union
- what additional actions does this give players?
- Credit clearance
- Value flow is a bit complex to implement in game dynamics (e.g. 5% fee difficult to represent with game pieces)
- Model is with loyalty rewards for commerce that can be reused between other villages (local tokens) incentive is to localise. From merchant to village is de-localisation. there is a bonus to localise and fee to take it out.
- Sharing across domains you have for example business
- the “festival” as a perfect case
A pivot: “how we think of money: income /spending alternative to income and spending is an agreement to offer savings”
Subscription: energy/coffee/bus/ other services or product could be by subscription. Saves costs and offer discount
when you have a payment platform, as an accounting system shared and trusted between people. (es square/paypal), so it is an accounting platform, that once is set up can offer subscription models and discounts
Staking is 2.0 of subscription is “common holding of wealth”
Network leverage of subscription model: My coffee plantation offers 20% off to all subscribers who also support public good X (e.g. clean energy production initiative)
SUGGESTIONS
- list of descriptions that people can read
- possibility to give some things as given so the stories emerges that people cares about
- put some elements that lead the players is a bit closing down the situation like is a real simulation
- two things could be have discounts between two cities
- as well logistics could play a role
