What about a higher property tax if you are not living on the property for more than x days a year?

This is really cool! Clearly a lot of thought went into making it. That said, I feel like the otters could have just made a bulletin board to solve their problem

I saw this exact thing pop up on ProductHunt at some point in the last year. Sorry, I don't remember the name, but it was an iOS app.

If you're ever in NYC, I also strongly recommend a visit to the Museum of the Moving Image in Queens. It's not just focused on video games, but there are ocassionally exhibitions devoted to them.
