The economy, or lack thereof, that I have observed in Agora Nomic, suggests that it needs to be changed. Marks have little or no value, and there is a chance they will be repealed soon if nothing is done. Points have apparently less value than they once had, and winning seems less appealing. The one commodity worth trading, selling, and buying is the Vote.

Unfortunately, the concept of one player, one vote is something few people want to give up. The Vototron and Group Votes were abolished for the same reason; Supposedly they are 'undemocratic'. Does the Vototron favor rich players? Maybe, but how did those players become point-rich? By passing proposals that people liked, taking offices and receiving legitimate salaries. They did NOT get randomly chosen to be rich and powerful!

I have no idea how Group Votes are considered undemocratic. Many world governments are considered democratic, and yet the legislative, executive and judicial power is placed in the hands of a small minority of people. In my opinion, there is nothing inherently wrong about someone giving up power to someone else voluntarily. And if you complain that the groups-have-all-the-power-and-points-and-they-can-pass-any-proposal-they-want, form your own group! It is perfectly democratic because anyone can do it!

Votes' dynamicity was reduced before I even came to Agora, and I am deeply disappointed that the fundamental aspect of the game has become so static. The fundamental point of any game is to have fun - and how can anyone have fun if we are all too worried about being safe?
