The Advent of Coins

Author: squeaky Date of Creation: 1744968722 (18 April 2025)

Create a top-level section of this wiki page between Proposals and Tower of Babel named "Money". Inside the Money section, create a section titled "Rules". Inside the Money section, create a section titled "List of All Bank Accounts".

Inside of the Money > Rules section, write the following:

The official currency is "coins". Coins cannot be subdivided into fractional pieces. Coins cannot be deleted from the game. If a player decides to stop being a player, their coins must be transferred to the "Slownomic Government Bank Account". Only the player who owns the money can initiate an outgoing transfer of money. This is done by editing the List of All Bank Accounts balance of the owner's account and the receiver's account by the same amount. If a player stops being a player and they either (a) delete their bank account without transferring the money to the Slownomic Government Bank Account or (b) do not delete their bank account, then any player still in the game can make sure the Slownomic Government Bank Account receives the money and the account of the inactive player is deleted from the list of all bank accounts. At any time, a new proposal can be approved to "mint" new "coins" and directly add them to an account or accounts. "coins" can ONLY be created by "mint"ing them. At any time, a user may send 100 coins to the Slownomic Government Bank Account and increment their government donation count by 1. If a player's government donation count is greater than or equal to 20, they receive a "Government Donor" badge.

Inside of the Money > List of All Bank Accounts section, include the following accounts: "Slownomic Government Bank Account" and one personal account for each player. Make a note in the Rules > Becoming a Player section to create a personal bank account in the List of All Bank Accounts section when becoming a player. Mint 100 coins directly into the 16 current players' personal accounts. Mint 2000 coins directly into the Slownomic Government Bank Account. Inside the Money section, create a section titled Government Donation Count.
