100-ary Jubilee PromotionsSeveral promotions have already been confirmed. Funnily enough, there are
10 characters (26% of all PCs!) that should promote according to other criteria but lack the minimum living conditions requirement.
Lord James (to Earl): Minimum 200 sqm/100% house needed.
Lord Ale (to Earl): Minimum 200 sqm/100% house needed.
Dame Roopatra (to Baroness): Minimum 100 sqm/60% house needed.
Master drfred (to Baron): Clothes needed, minimum 100 sqm/60% house needed.
Master Saddam (to Baron): Minimum 100 sqm/60% house needed.
Master binaryFate (to Baron): Minimum 100 sqm/60% house needed.
xulescu: Minimum 45 sqm/20% house needed.
dnaleor: Minimum 45 sqm/20% house needed.
Paulson: Minimum 45 sqm/20% house needed.
paradigmflux: Payment overdue, Minimum 18 sqm/0% house needed.
Now - it is possible to contact me or Roopatra for addition or new building. We still have
some very little time
so please be brief. Or contact smooth for RE brokering. We have a lot of 45-100 sqm places in town but you need to find them and contact the owners.
How to get a bigger house?Zechariah is willing to develop a residential palace in the most prime lot of W-K6, with Karl, Monero House Gardens, University and Jousting Ground as neighbors. Fully developed and with
maximum luxury and opulence, this land is sold as follows:
- With 300+ sqm palace turnkey solution: 780,000,000 m
- With 200+ sqm and commercial space in the basement: 680,000,000 m
The palace has much light, since apart from the south facade to the Jousting ground, we have secured the rights of windows toward Monero House gardens from e=4 upwards. Other features you may pick from the list (one or several):
- Raised entrance from 1st floor
- Golden room
- Other gold (specify - all gold comes from the buyer)
- Galleries
- Large Hall
- Hall with high ceiling
- Hall with dome
- Grand staircase
- Guest bedrooms
- Kitchen (not mandatory)
- Tavern in the base
- Viewing balcony
- Roof gardens
- An option is to negotiate the quadrat directly to the north from the Chancellor smooth to be a back garden. We know the University needs money and that is not immediately in the area that the University needs for its own buildings.
Also HM lot 1-N-C10 can be sold fully developed at the following prices:
- With 200+ sqm: 320,000,000 m
- With 150+ sqm: 270,000,000 m
- With 100+ sqm: 220,000,000 m
You can pick features similarly as in the previous case. There will be a small square in front of the house and a midsize grocery store just on the opposite side of the square.
Noble Palace residency counts as a temporary residency. So for promotion you cannot use it, but if you are between homes (eg. a Baron moving from townhouse to a palace in a haw) it is possible to use NP. Other rentals are not enabled for complexity reasons.
Concerning new landNew land of 500 quadrats will be opened once the
Online Version 2: Ancients works properly. There is much stone in the Kingdom, and it will be accepted as payment for land, and used for constructing the defences in one swoop.
We also spent sleepless nights concerning how to delight our subjects in the Jubilee. The consideration was that
land is what everybody wants. So this is a pre-announcement that
gift cards for land will be given to each and every one equally (some are more equal etc. you know it already..)
Concerning new charactersNo new characters will be admitted to the game before the online version functions properly. It will be launched this Sunday, but it does not necessarily mean that new characters can be created immediately.
Forced liquidation of current charactersThere may be characters that
both have had a negative balance for a long time,
and are inactive/inaccessible in the game. These will be liquidated before Sunday unless contact can be established. The liquidation order is as follows:
- gold
- land (unless gold is enough to cover the debt)
- other assets.
Having 1,000 gold is not a requirement since Sunday, therefore they can resume play with having less gold. If the balance is still negative, they are revomed from game. If it is positive, they will continue play normally.
In
Economy, the sickness will take care of inactive characters, because treating it properly, strongly favors characters that can log in weekly at least, and a few weeks of untreated sickness may be a cause of death.
About goldOnly one auction is left and it closes today. Price of gold has stabilized at around 100,000 m/CKG and already half of the gold is issued to the 39 characters, a fantastic premine if you dare to call it
In the online version, HM Coinshop will operate with the maximum trade of 2,000 CKG or more. The accumulation or selling of gold will be fully automated soon.
If any of the large goldholders wants to undercut King's margins (currently spread is 12%), he should prepare to do it as trading in the taverns is very easy from then on.
About the Most Ancient Gold Items
There will be a tab in the Character DB soon showing what can be ordered and at what cost. To ease the handling, gold is now totally indestructible, meaning that when it is remolded, the non-recoverable part is added to the labor cost (at the current price), and when the item expires, you always get the full amount back.
About Barbarian Uprising
We have held a summit with the leaders of the so-called Barbarians. It appeared that they are nice people after all and awestruck with both our civilian and military accomplishments, the Donjon of our Citadel that rises to 25 m height (with pedestal), our well trained army with Nobles as leaders, the new Shopping Centre etc., that they confirmed no willingness to attack us.
In turn, we gifted them 100,000,000 m as a 100-ary gift. They are coming to spend half of it during the celebrations, as well as all other foreign dignitaries do. They told that the foods we regard as exotic are common where they live.
All in all - peace is secured for the time of the Jubilee, as is fitting, and foreign cultures can live together if they just respect their differences. Our Army stands fully prepared to guard the security of all the visitors, while their own security troops are limited to a minimum.
