Thread: This week in politics 2/2/04
I know I am feeling the Skill Point Squeeze. This is my only account and Kettemoor is the only server I play on so having to give up those points to Master Politician isn't something I am looking forward to. For one, Mos Mesric is nuetral so I have no need to make it a stronghold or to build bases. Right now I am 4-2-4-4 in politician and will probably drop down to 1-1-2-4 and use those points somewhere else. (I'm working on Master Pistoleer which is tough but I do love being Mayor so I will find a way to make it work). I think they shoud lower the skill points some by lowering Novice to 6 points rather than 15. Afterall we still have to get the Apprenticeship points to become Mayor and that has to count for something.
As for Mos Mesric, we had a really good week, we are up to 65 citizens now and there really seems to be a lot of community in the city. We had two City Hunts last week and raised some serious cash for the city treasurey. I'm currently working on trying to open up a second Merchant Square over by our Cantina, Zoo, Med Facility and Cloning Center. Our other Merchant Square is located infront of City Hall and behind the Shuttle Port. We also just because a Research Center (Hoooray!!!!).
BTW, you are doing a great job Baj.

This week in politics the metropolis of Vicimus, Naboo, Wanderhome server, had a changeover of mayors. The great mayor Mr. Okie Korrack decided to step down after building our city from the ground up. Okie is retired as mayor & will now be an honored citizen of Vicimus where I hope he'll continue to enjoy life & have fun with his friends & guildmates.
I was railroaded...err... elected to take over the position as mayor of Vicimus & I hope that he'll continue to be there as my best friend & advisor while I try to catch up on the politician forums so that I can fulfill my duties in this new position. Okie was a fine mayor & I admire the work he did. It'll be a tough act to follow.

Ostium Vepres has only expanded by one or two citizens. A situation came up involving a neighboring guild that took up residency just outside of the city limit. Obviously to utilize the shuttle. There was also talk amongst my citizens that the guild was recruiting from our shuttleport (We are a PA controlled city and find it rude for other Guilds to abuse their shuttle rights in such a manner) as well as being rude. I did some investigative work and finally found the name of the guild's leader. Once he logged on, I spoke with him personally about the situation. He denied any wrong doings, but with a little coaxing and assistance I convinced him to pack up his guild hall and installations and move to a location further west.
Last week I mentioned that my city hit its decoration limit. Well this week I noticed that a few of the decorations I have placed over time are missing. There was a light post for instance that I know I placed, and then a day later it was gone. Doing a count of all still standing decorations there are a total of 4 of 40 that have gone MIA. I understand that it is possible to remove a decoration without actually removing it from the city's limit, however I have always been careful to choose the "Remove" option rather than the "pick up" option.
So I must blame some sort of bug on this one.
I decided to visit some of the other cities off world and see how Ostium Vepres compares. I have to say I was marveled by GHOSTTOWN'S ingenious defense design, but was slightly perplexed as I was badgered by the locals as they spammed me with duel requests and accusations.
Apparently a nuetral aligned rodian carrying a mandovial is a security risk.
May favorite city of course is ARCH MESA. But since they have the beautiful natural arches of Tatooine to help out their design, it's more the location that makes the city what it is. Not the layout. But they already knew that (hence calling it ARCH MESA).
