Brodgar!

[sabinati]

Basically, I think anybody should be able to set up a house in the residential district for free initially, providing they actually live there, and don't claim land for their private use. .

so wait, i wouldn't be able to claim my house?

[Yolan]

Claiming your house would be fine of course. I mean, because we want to fit as many people in as possible, and make a real compact 'city', we can't let people have their own claimed private gardens/farms, etc.

This is my opinion anyway. If, when we have some proper leaders voted in, they want to change that, then so be it.

[Gauteamus]

Great, idea, Yolan!
Count me in as help.
I cannot say how long I'll stay, but I think one can just as well stay relatively close to RoB in the beginning, as one smells the new world and gets a feeling for all the new changes.

[Yolan]

I am having trouble connecting, so I'm going to wait an hour or so and take a nap. If anybody gets on first and finds a good spot, start chopping!

I guess we want to begin by marking the ground somehow in order to set out the basic layout...

[Yolan]

Well, looks like this idea died before it even got started. Everybody thank the goons for their gigantic claims right next to the RoB...

[Etienne]

Isn't there another reasonable place available then?

[Yolan]

Maybe, but I need somebody who is helping to actually meet with me, so we can share dreams and get a claim up.

BRODGAR LIVES!!!!

If you are interested in helping us lay the foundations, please come north of RoB till you get to the end of the river!

[Yolan]

Well, a bunch of great folks have been working hard since the world began, and the outlines of Brodgar are forming. If you are interested in helping out, please just come a bit north of the RoB and have a chat with us.

Taking the initiative, I will be opening up residential space in the future to anybody who wishes to live here, however with precedence going to those who helped build the place. I will lay out space such that people will be able to wall in a cottage (max density is desired).

This will form the foundation of the step towards building a political system.

Again, taking the initiative, I declare that all who have a hearthfire in Brodgar, and (after they become avaliable) have an assigned stake of land, count as a citizen whose vote is of equal worth to any other when deciding the future chieftan/lawspeaker (voting held periodically).

I'll be heading up there and giving it a shot when I get online tonight. Do you guys have an IRC chanel or any live chat I can use to coordinate? I'm hoping you'll be on in about 3-4 hours time
