Have you ever thought about selling this as an offline game? ...

What would be the point?

you could play every round as long as you want and you don't have to wait for some time to pass... ok, you would only play against a computer, but that can be fun too... and you don't have to play every day... altough this is fun, it's difficult for some people to play every day...
an other option would be to play the game in a single-player mode where you can say, when a day ends... like this you could do this on the server as well, but again, you're not bound to a time and you can play as long and as much as you want...
and the ai could be built, using the actions recorded from real players... maybe... :-) ... just some thoughts...

Not to burst your bubble, but making aws a single player offline game would require  a complete rewrite in a non-web based programing language.
Or
It'd only work on a LAMP machine :P

Not to mention writing an AI for it - which might actually be interesting. :-)

-1 for me.

AWS isn't just a good game, it's a social community aswell whih makes AWS a good game. With a stand-alone version you won't have AWS as it is right now.
