OK, as the inaugural Sandbox game, I'm going out on a limb and assuming that JANE AUSTEN FIGHT CLUB WOULD BE A KICK-ARSE GAME!!!
That said, here it is for those who don't know what it is:

The cool thing about Jane Austen fight club is that, unlike most of the Jane Austen fan writing that is out there, it is still social commentary and satire (obviously also tinged with humor and romance). Instead of using fight club to rebel against modern society, they are rebelling against British society and its Classical ideals in a world of increasing modernization thanks to the French Revolution.
I think we should play characters from any of the books, and pretend that they all exist in the same town and time period. They have a fight club, and hatch plots against the totalitarian regime when they aren't having tea with the Middletons or evading the attentions of Mr. Collins or hitting on George Wickham or snarking it up with Frank Churchill....I'm pretty sure that anyone who's read Austen OR Fight Club will see that there are lots of things we could do with this.
And, you know, if it gets awesome and we don't want it to end, it can become a serial. What do you think?? Who would be interested?
*I'm* interested.
