This is my idea for a forum-game at INTL. KoRT is much too slow for what it has (Mafia; Trivias), never mind a new type of game. I have been tweaking and fiddling with the rules and layout for this game; if you think it could be better by a changing of the rules, please private message me. This isn't supposed to be how any real economy works, but just something for us to have fun with.
