Actually, I'm not selling anything. The authors themselves get to sell subscriptions to their readers when they gain reputation. Yea, it's fictional, but hopefully it will be a better proxy to their value as compared to outright selling a newsletter subscription.

Plus, authors can only start selling subs after 6 months, and no one would subscribe if their ideas are bad. I'm trying to build a skin-in-the-game kinda system as much as I can with the constraints that I have.

Might need to work on my copy since you didn't get it. :(

FWIW I understood it pretty easily.
