I do want the board to be atypical, e.g. recursive sub-boards (subs have subs), a variety of economic ranking algorithms (there are so many different auction algorithms), marketplaces, financial incentives and economy management tools for running sub-boards, etc.

We've talked about internal linking shortcuts like #205407 would reference the comment I'm replying to. Comments or posts could accumulate references kind of like github issues and context could cascade. We could do the same with mentions.

I've also been encouraged to read about Project Xanadu (I'm a sucker for tech history) but I have an embarrassingly deep book queue atm.

Other than that, I haven't thought a whole lot about conversation structure yet. I've focused primarily on the game theory/incentives because I find most people are bored by it, it's under explored, yet it's probably the single most powerful tool for generically skewing behavior.

Thanks for bringing this up. You've convinced me I'm not thinking about it enough!
