At the beginning of each Auction Phase, each player gains a number of chips equal to 100 minus their tax value. If a player joins the game during an Auction Phase, they gain 100 chips minus their tax value.

A player's wealth value is defined as the number of chips they possess, increased by the number of chips possessed by each contract they are entered into, divided by the number of players entered into that contract. ''(For example, a contract possessing 400 chips, with four players entered into it, would increase each player's wealth values by 100).''

A player's tax value is defined as 0, increased by 5 for every 20 wealth they have above 300, to a maximum value of 100.
