General piles of ideas
- DEAD CHICKEN RICE - REPORT AND BROWSE OTHER DEAD ANIMALS, UNSAVOURY FOOD EXPERIENCES HERE?
- DIELAH! - there's cleanlah, trafficlah, so why not DieLah also?
- GREENSPIRATION! - gamify green+inspiration, but seriously will people get into greenspiration?
- FREECYCLE ON A PHONE APP - matching people in a phone (how is this not freecycle? why can't i just go on a freecycle mobile website instead?)
- KICKGREEN - post your good stuff, get points (zonghuan's pitch)
- GET PAID TO RECYCLE - gamify recycling, because, you know recycling is one of the big rituals of modern life
- NEGATIVE ERP SCHEME - give cyclist perks (gamifying cycling so more people cycle instead of driving) - surely someone could make a runkeeper for cycling that records all your travels whether cycling or driving and offsets it and gives you score each week for how much you cycled in comparision to driving?
- things i like in concept which i dont know how it is related to all this yet
The things I think i'll work on

- grasslah / cryptoforests / cryptofields (cos we so lame we dont even have space for the trees) / empty terrain
