        Do study the Puzzle Pirates and Runescape examples. Doubloon oceans
        seem very successful to me (though I'm not party to Three Ring
        finances, of course).
        
        I'd like to see a micropayment scheme where the fee is a chunk of your
        CPU% while playing or something - distributed computation. One could
        even farm out tasks to the humans playing, though it might be tricky
        to frame the tasks so that they're not jarring to suspension of
        disbelief. (The quest to gain the Vorpal Shovel is: Categorize 100
        pictures into "depicts a kitten" and "does not depict a kitten.")
