Yes, I have bumped into Luke on there and he's started building some tools for the game too. I have a lot of respect for Luke.
The game has a free-market capitalist economy that I expect might appeal to you. It is fascinating to see how it is playing out. A few groups are trying collectivist stuff but their "members" are going horribly IMHO ;)
About time somebody tried socialism. Strange that it's not going so well.
Some players are already calling for minimum wage. It's quite amusing to see the parallels. If STEEM was a social experiment then this is an economic experiment.
