These are simply examples, made quickly with ATCS. The numbers are stupid, but syntaxically and semantically correct.
In this example, you'll gain between 30 and 40 AP each round. That doesn't impact your max AP (like combat speed does) but your currently usable AP,which at the beginning of a round is already at max value. So, essentially, this has no effect.

There's a typo in viewtopic.php?f=6&t=5825#p57703

Should be:

In viewtopic.php?f=6&t=5825#p57704 it says:
The name can contain "$playername", and the game engine will replace this by the player's name in-game.
Is this really the case with items, or is this a copy/paste error from conversation lists? I ask because doing a grep for '$playername' in 'itemlist_*' files doesn't return anything...

Player as an item? Interesting idea....

It could be useful in an item's description, or even in the name. Try it, if it doesn't work and you have a good use for it, I'll code it.

Apologies for the constant nitpicking, but found another error: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=5825#p57700
Worldmaps use a custom XML format. All worldmaps are defined in a single worldmap.xml file located under res/raw/ in the game source.
I can see a 'worldmap.xml' file under 'res/xml/', not 'res/raw/'...

These posts are very helpful for me BTW, thanks for writing them up!
