dont get me wrong, i'm thankfull for every constructive idea/critic i get. my last post was refering to
Donari Tyndale, wich seems to get the whole thing wrong. the change of location was definately not for
money reasons (or what do you think how much money i made with my fish?! ) it was only for reasons
to make it easyer and more enjoyable for many people to take part in that event.

of course it is possible to make the market in a different location next month. maybe oja, maybe east
hydlaa or somewhere else (i for myself would like the bd fortress, cuz it's one of the most beautiful spots
in the game, but i think noone would go there for a market). that is still open for debate. but the octarch
house is simply too small to provide enough room, in that case we had to limit the ammount of merchants
or it would be crowded like hell... and how to control how many merchants will be there?

I Recently spoke to Master Zwenze from the Way of the Hammers and we discussed about how we could make it easier for all the Citicents of Yliakum to visit the Market. To make it more comfortable to the hard digging Platinum Miners to spent their Trias the montlly Market will take place in the Gugrontid Tavern. It will start this Sunday as usual in the evening [at 1900 CET]

I hope that will be a better location, as the plaza. it seems to be very laggy for a lot of people and some could not even get there becaouse their machines could not handle that ammount of stress

sorry for the short notice, i was very busy the last few days at work and was not at home most of the time, so i could not write that post anytime earlier.

/my faces turns green: "A klyros fish bar? "

Suddenly Zwenze runs holding his hand before his mouth

Ah, i see you already got your healthy green color, as all klyros do when they get hungry. didnt realize dwarfs do the same. but why did you run in the opposite direction? the fish i prepared 6 weeks ago is here, not over there... ^_^

~~ OOC ~~

1st of all, sorry for the late response. was quite a busy time at work the last few days and i had not much time to sit on the pc

The idea i had in mind is, that every merchan has a Book placed beside his market stand with a list of items and prices written to it, wich can be read by the customers. i also would recommend to decorate it a bit with a few cheap items to display i.e. if you sell weapons, drop some simple swords, axes etc. pp. (so it wont hurt when you or the server crashes for some reason and it's gone).

where and how you display your goods is up to you, but i would recommend to keep the market stands close together, so it wont spread to much all over the plaza. i had the area around the fountain in mind, would be more than enough space for quite a lot of merchants.

It's a great idea, however, I always seem to get lag in that area and in Hydlaa in general, so I only go there if I absolutely have to.
Does anyone else get this?

Hmmm... not that i'm aware of. i dont have more lag at the plaza than any other place. the only thing i noticed is the improved performance since the 0.4 version (thanks to the devs to get rid of the grass again. it was a pain in the a** for most players )

This sounds pretty much like what we hosted two months ago.
Big market, a scheduled time and loads of people, plus attractions, entertainment and whatnot (the only reason why Call of Destiny didn't host more is that some of the big blocks are having internet issues).
So for a start, I of course agree with your views and support the idea emphatically ^_^'

Hmmm... havent heard of that event. but maybe a forum search would have helped (wich i didnt do). damn, i thought i had a unique idea once and now it turned out that already two other groups had the same just before :/

well, i hope it turns out to be fun and i also hope it will be a success, so it wont be a one-time-only-event, but also becomes more like a regular event.

Hope to see as many of you as possible tomorrow evening and i wish all of you to have a lot of fun.

Dear Planeshift players,

its a pity that the plaza isn't used as what it should be used, namely as a meeting and market place. Therefore I urge you all to come to the plaza at every first sunday of the month and to roleplay a market. Offer your crafted weapons, glyphs, food and armor. Or look out for the other offering. Help that the plaza gets it attention it deserves!

It is not about having a auction day, actually the goal should be to have a dense atmosphere. Your character is an artist or a musician? You are a cook? Offer all you can, make a dwarven beer garden, roleplay some klyros fish snack bar, do gamblings, make the plaza the center of yliakum.

We plan to make this happen on sunday, 6th of april. Any feedback is welcome. Post your ideas here!

Regards,

Aturon Assu
