One idea I had is a list of "goals" that could be maintained - goals could
be added through proposal, and when someone achieved a goal it was removed
from the list and that player won the game. That'd allow for things like how
trust tokens say the "first" player to do whatever wins. Perhaps it could
also be expanded to have goals have rules tied to them that get repealed
with the goal's removal?

Alternatively this may work better as a contract, but then I have no
idea what kind of reward to offer.
We should bring back Contests. They were always one of the simplest
ways to try out interesting win conditions.
I'd try something like this, to get started:
Proto: Contests (AI 1)
{{{{
Create a new rule, "Contests and Scoring", with Power 1 and the
following text:
{{{
The Scorekeepor is an office. Points are a currency, tracked by the
Scorekeepor. Points can be owned only by persons and contracts.
Whenever a person owns 100 or more points, the Scorekeepor CAN by
announcement, and SHALL in a timely manner, destroy all points in the
possession of each person who has 100 or more points, and half the
points in the possession of each other person. When points are
destroyed in this manner, each person who had 100 or more points
immediately before the destruction wins the game.
A Contest is a type of contract. The Scorekeepor's weekly report
includes a list of all Contests. A contract is never a Contest unless
it has been made into a Contest by a rules-defined process. As long as
at least one contest exists, the Scorekeepor SHALL once each week, and
CAN once per week by announcement, create a number of points in the
possession of each Contest equal to the number of parties that contract
has.
A player CAN cause a contract to be come a Contest without 3
objections. Players SHOULD NOT intend to make a contract into a
Contest, and SHOULD object to such intents, if the contract does not
give each player a fair opportunity to earn its points, or if the
contract has insufficient protections against being amended so that it
no longer gives each player a fair opportunity to earn its points.
}}}
}}}}
Agora's gone back and forth on how freely tradeable points are in the
past, but I think it's probably best to start with them as liquid so
that they can help to form the basis of an economy alongside Shinies.
