[Maybe this could be a way to spur some more gameplay.
The underlying idea:
Spendies -> candles (contest subgames) -> radiance
Players can still buy radiance directly, they still get a universal
basic income in spendies, etc.
Candles are a shelf-stable form of radiance but can only be held by
contests. 1 spendie grants 1 candle; 1 candle grants 1 radiance.
This would be almost entirely redundant because tournaments exist (and
are criminally underused IMO). The differences are just that tournaments
use regulations instead of contracts and that they award wins directly
instead of by way of victory points. I would recommend expanding on that
system instead of creating a new one.
