If you can read the Historical Stimulus Package topic, it will spell it all out to you.

I'd love to be in this project, so count Sandy in! :grin:

I do have a question, though. Will we be allowed to choose our guild, or will we be randomly slotted to them? I for one think getting to choose our own guilds would increase motivation to build for them, but on the other hand it might lead to the guilds having an uneven number of builders.

I have to disagree, ISC, there's so much going on in that topic that it doesn't really spell it out at all. You can't expect people to read 9 pages and pick out the essential information from it, at least in my opinion. It'd be best to have some sort of compilation as to what exactly we're signing into. :wink:

I would love to participate, but i won't be able to do anything until after Xmas i'm afraid. But if you are looking to start the community build after that, then i'd love to be involved. When is it likely to start?

Hi Sandy,

I appreciate that this thread is really long, but there are a lot of solid hints as to what this is going to end up looking like.

Regarding your question, from what I understand, things are still being ironed out. The only problem with having members choose a guild is that the guilds could end up being so imbalanced that only one or two of the guilds actually has enough members to sustain itself. This could sink the project before it even gets on its feet.

If it is the case that the guilds are chosen for us, I'll probably unsign, as I want to do Orc huts, but could end up making an Elven castle. Which, as well as not being my cup of tea, requires a hell of a lot more bricks than I had in mind. :hmpf:

I'll wait for confirmation on this before unsigning. :sceptic:

Edited by Scorpiox, 05 November 2011 - 08:57 PM.

I now possess a depressing, and largely unexpected, absence of ideas for what it is that I could write in this space that would encourage, inspire or amuse any man, woman or child who takes the time to read this drawn-out and mindless drivel. I remain painfully aware of how this same passage could have been written in a far shorter and simplistic manner, whilst still maintaining its message and key purpose to all who take the time and effort to exercise their mind in understanding these words; however, this would barely give me half as much pleasure as the satisfaction that a large number of members on this website will soon or late find themselves working through this increasingly large collection of rubbish at least once, perhaps even twice if they begin to forget its contents. I hearby grant myself 500 bonus points for every unfortunate victim, now and in the future, that takes part in the aforementioned psychological experiment by bothering to read this huge tosh, excluding the numerous times that I myself have trawled through this... mess. Woah, I got a bit carried away there, that short message has transpired rather differently to how I was predicting it would. Actually, the bigger the better, I might as well increase its size even further by adding a long, torturous final sentence that is only as unnecessary as that whole lot of stupid, pointless waste of time was to both write, re-read, proof-read and then open for viewing by the general public. Have a nice day, folks!

Looking at the results of the poll regarding guild builds , it doesn't look like we'll be bound to our factions style (and no one is going to stop you building whatever you like either way).
We are just trying to strengthen the community and add a little spice to the history forum.
