Fantasy Journals

Carl Bergstrom has a good idea, fantasy journals.  A fantasy journal is a virtual collection of articles from other journals.  As with fantasy baseball or football the fun part is when fantasy journals compete with one another based upon a common ranking system such as citation counts.   Care to go head to head with Steve Levitt (JPE), Robert Moffit (AER) or Ed Glaeser (QJE)?

Prufer and Zetland take the idea one step further, how about auctioning papers and paying editors and referees based on future citations?
