The first fic you posted to LJ should be findable in your archive if you either kept your LJ intact or imported it to DW, and the first fic you posted to AO3 is probably the first one with a date after the creation date of your AO3 account, which is on your profile.
In theory I could, I was just too lazy :D But also there’s a major issue in that my LJ is not intact -- in 2008 it was hacked and every post I’d ever made was deleted. I lost a lot of the first few years of posts. The later years were either cloned to DW or recoverable through googlecache, archive.org, and similar, but even then I reckon I lost about 20%. So there’s no way of confirming that what I would find would be the actual first, since so much of the early journal is gone.

As an instructional designer we made something like this for one of our business courses :D it wasn't as fun as yours though because it stayed at the boring round. WHAT IF THERE WAS LIKE A DND element where you had a game Master to keep facilitating the crazy scenarios as the players got deeper and deeper into the game? :D
Sure! Or you could even have someone working with the economist -- say, the economist always set the prices, but you could have a futurist or a DM style storyteller to say, “Okay, here’s the new scenario for you: four months from now there’s a wheat blight....”

I would kill for a web series.
Oh, now there’s a thought! You could even make it a fictional game -- script out the gameplay so that it was more of a storytelling project.
