I think there should be limits on what objects can be given... it's 
possible in B Nomic to possess other players' voting rights; they have 
the right to reclaim them at any time... I'm not sure how that would 
work if the rights had been destroyed in this game...

Also, with Toading, it's possible that one player could possess 
another. What happens if I sell you bd?

I don't know... without the modification, this could lead to some 
interesting Control wars... if you can outwait everyone else, and get 
them not to trade, you can get your 2/3 majority...
