Topics
Build off
Players can compete which eachother in a build off competition with a time frame of about 6 hours. Starting on Sunday 3pm. LadyBountiful will host the first competition. More details will follow in a separate forum post.
- A team-building competition was suggested as well.
- Zed offered to relocate the winning building to another area after the competition.
Community Farm
The community farms is now split into multiple fields. Each player can only harvest one field of each crop at the time. Keep in mind that the farm is made for beginners so make sure there are always fully grown crops available.
Chat colors
Haggisboy suggest to change either the private chat color or the "trusted person" color to prevent confusion.
Zed will think about how he will change this. Blue (bold) was found to be a good solution for a private message. Also red was another suggested solution.
Server upgrade
The server will go down on Monday so it will be down for some time.
The new server will mean: faster server, less lag and more mobs.
Zedwork App
Suggested by OneEyedTurtle. With an app the forum could be used on smartphones better. Zed says it's not likely to happen now. He is working on making the site more smartphone friendly though.
Welcome message
Hominix suggests to include the "Please read the rules" sentence in the welcome message. Zed won't add it to the first message that new players receive, but the message will appear after a few seconds.
meeting length
Turtle wants to limit meeting length. Hosts, but also other council members try to wrap up the topic when it takes to long. Conversation can continue on the forum. A host can also decide beforehand that there are too many topics for the meeting and decide to only shortly address it and make a forum topic about it.
Nominations
Hominix was voted to be new council member.
Next Meeting Host
hosted by ScarySpider, 18th of July, 20:00h GMT.
