An experiential learning game focusing on the basics of Bayesian reasoning might be a valuable design goal for this community - and a game I'd definitely have an interest in playing.

Not particularly Bayesian, but I think a game of LessWrong Nomic would be fun.

Being one of the maintainers of a Livejournal Nomic myself, I have to agree but step aside. It's a fun, geeky game.

Heh. I spent a couple years playing Agora Nomic myself, back in the mid-90's. Had a wonderful time, but I'm not about to let that bug bite me again.

I've found that being a judge in Agora is a very good exercise in thinking rigorously about (mildly) politically-charged questions.
