I have recently started working on a (multiplayer) Tasigur, the Golden Fang control deck, and I have a general idea of how I want the deck to play, but I don't know how I want to win. I find most infinite combos boring (Palinchron) but they are obviously an efficient way to close out the game after I have control.
I think what you have is sufficient already I'm a fan of sunder in the Azusa oracle exploration package as a blowout mechanic. You can always use tooth and nail if you need another win condition or just kick right of replication on one of the many things that end games. I don't think those are needed I would just focus more on the control the kill will come most ya augur decks alredy want seed orb muse effects to make his abilty useful so winter orbs a no brainer. The win con I want to give a shout out to however is doomsday the extra land drops make gush piles disgustingly efficient and gush is alredy a pretty strong card in the land drop shell playing sunder. I would be willing to concede a few control slots for doomsday support . I also like waste not in control shells if you use slot of discard windfall you can even use ravens crime or loam and cycle lands you can even support lotus cobra. If that seems to narrow or does not fit your control suite notion thief can win off time spiral time twister and windfall all good cards in extra land drop decks. That's at least how I built Tasigur and it was pretty damn strong not sure it was better than damia buy having the one mana 4 general damage made it a great deck for 1:1 as well as multiplayer.
Well any form of infinite mana, ala Palinchron and Deadeye Navigator could allow cards like Villainous Wealth, which you mentioned, or Blue Sun's Zenith. However, you don't like the infinite mana combo, which is understandable, I'm not much of a fan either.
One lead up to a possible win-con would be Deadeye Navigator plus Rune-Scarred Demon. It is a nice tutor engine. Rite of Replication is also a nice way to get a lot of demons and tutors if you don't have any better targets. Five Rune-Scarred Demon on the baord plus whatever five cards you tutored is a nice way to combo without it being infinite.

I'm not a huge BUG player, so this is all I can think of unless you throw some aggro in.
I used to use RoR in this exact manner on my old tooth and nail deck I liked RoR better than BSZ and going palinchron + demon > image > RoR on demon was my kill from the time demon was printed I used this until I stopped using the deck. The fact runescar sort of tutors his own combo always made me giggle I eventually moved to faster cheaper combos but I always liked that t+n kill as it made for nearly no dead cards I had no deadeye but did use vorinclex RoR even made palinchron ritual for 25 shortcutting triggers on mtgo by fetching enternall witness off the kick on demon making so I could kill the table with far few clicks then bouncing palinchron 15 million times I could just make 6 demons present an infinite turn loop and win in a fraction of the time.
Engines/win cons I'm looking to include in the deck:
-Mindslaver+Tasigur's ability
-Life From the Loam/Crucible of Worlds/Strip Mine
-Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth/Cabal Coffers+Villainous Wealth or another X
-Tasigur damage (Sword of Feast and Famine)
-Bribery and the like
Any other ideas? General control wins thread.

Venser, Shaper Savant plus Deadeye Navigator is another fun one.
