Joshua Allen expresses his philosophical concern with any Gift Economy. Dave McCusker rebuts in part I'm utterly in favor of game systems (Systems And Games) in which value is very hard to measure (Legibility). In fact, I think this promotes Creativity and Innovation. Games with closed value systems are too easy to rig for Reductionism. Which means they are stupid and boring games, and tend to concentrate power.
