Hi immercify, Welcome to Agora. The very basics: everything is done by sending a message to a public forum (usually [email protected]). The rules are usually kept up to date at http://agora.qoid.us/current_flr.html; they explain the actions it is possible to take. Currently, there's not much gameplay to speak of. Agora has a few different conditions for victory: uncovering a paradox in the rules; going sufficiently long without "taunting the police"; winning any contest; and unilaterally possessing a majority of the voting power on a single decision. There is no obvious way of achieving any of these conditions. Come to think of it, there's no obvious way of gaining any sort of advantage at all, besides the small, ephemeral advantage that rubles can provide. We should fix that. —Machiavelli
