Happy Birthday Fear!

At the moment, Architects get a prefix, the same perms as legend, and the ability to request blocks for building attractions. They do not get fly, creative or WE.

I already applied and you've already seen and judged my builds, but I havent been formally accepted or denied yet, I dont think. I'll build something else if I get time.

FAQ:

Will I lose all my items?
No. Just stuff u kept in the old world will be gone with the new world. If you have already used your 1 move allowance, create a storage bunker in W2 for the reset, and then in ~35days from now you can transfer the items to your new place in the new world.

Will I have to pay anything for the island I want? Can I have/reserve islands? Is it weird?
No. This is like the normal world atm, just fear had a little too much fun and shaped everything like animals and countries. From the ground, it'll just be like a new world, with hills, trees, cows and sheep etc. The pictures you see of the map overview are obviously scaled down. To give an idea of the size of the map, previous maps have been like 2000 blocks by 2000 blocks. Thats something like 4 million blocks overall, so dont expect to dibs the whole of the east coast so easily.

Is X an attraction?
Chances are, no. I imagine due to the current workload of the managers (please consider that they have to move ~1 build per player, and the server has literally thousands of players, and there are like 8 manager+s) very few if any builds will be classed as attractions and moved for free. Those that are will most likely be current attractions, or have to be pretty impressive, so if its a dirtshack with half a birch tree in the roof, its probs not worthy, however this is completely down to the manager.

OMG why can't manager X come and move my shit??????!?!?!?!?!?!
Firstly, chill out. There's literally ~a month to do it, and as you can expect, from the second managers get online to the second they switch off their computers they're busy trying to get everyone's builds moved. Ask politely, and most importantly once every 5mins or so. If a manager is obviously busy with someone else, dont spam them demanding you get your build moved. Please be considerate of other players, and also of how busy these managers will be.

OMG why so many resets?
More active players, means less room on the map for new builds, and new players. Every 6 months or so we have a new map to offer new land, new ores and a new spawn town (people get bored ;) ) The next reset for this world will probably be early next year, or we might even see a full reset by then. A rough estimate for full resets is once every 2 years (or when we completely destroy something... like the economy.) You can actually help avoiding resets by hunting and reporting BCVs so that land can be freed up and the worlds can last longer. If you're not sure on the rules, read them at spawn (somewhere, they've been hidden i think...)

did this cus bored, easier to look at these instead of all the comments maybe idek.

Quote from: American_Walrus on Jul 25, 2015, 08:57 PMWe are down to only 4 active hosts, which is not enough in my opinion.
One more eventhost might be good, but another eventhost does not guarantee more events. I don't see as many events hosted by EventHosts as I think I should be seeing. I do understand that I'm not online 24/7, but that doesn't mean I should see only a few events in the actual time I play in a week. I understand timezones are a thing, but surely I would see another eventhost in my timezone host.


I'm in the same or similar timezone with all the current eventhosts, and even on weeks where i played 40hrs a week i saw a real lack of events hosted, especially for the amount of eventhosts we have, and the variety of events we have. You're obviously not alone in that thought.
108
Bring back event league if any of the current event hosts have time/can be bothered.

Also, on that topic, the variety and regularity of the events is much worse than it has been in the past. Perhaps evals, or bringing back eventhost of the week (idk if this still exists) , or adding more event hosts will improve this.

The pvp events are rarely hosted, which adds greatly to the variety. Often when such events are suggested, eventhosts shy away from them due to being harder to host. To combat this, make pvp events worth more for eventhosts to host.

Quote from: tobminer on Jul 13, 2015, 08:36 PMMind if I build a small part in the new spawntown? I have a really cool idea in mind, if this is allowed, the architects can also change the materials used if they want! :)
Actually, we have a spawntown made since ages ago (it was made for something else but never got to be used)

But can I tweak it a tiny bit? I didn't want to make the whole spawntown, just a tiny, like 10x10 area in it, kind of like the museum, I wanted to make an area where staff were named, and categories such as Mods, Managers, Admins, Specialists, Elders and Owners. Each section with all staff member heads included and with their name above.
Yeah, that changes like the wind, and it's unneeded because everyone knows about https://www.superfuntime.org/whoarewe .

Also, someone mentioned the museum- it'd be nice to have that back and updated by someone who knows what they're talkin about. Probably only Towelie left who was around for all the historic events.

Quote from: Kaninka on Jul 13, 2015, 07:26 PMThis is basically an option to everyone:
If you don't want a reset of w1 too: Spam the Jmods, Mods and Managers with builds you think are BCV's. We need you to report as many as possible, so we can get some of those green squares removed :)  :zombie:
can do

The point isn't that he can monopolise diamond sales, its that theres too much emp in the system altogether. The point of these tax changes is to try and burn a percentage of this emp to try and slow down the inflation caused by the emp. It's impossible to stabilize it, so we've got to try and slow it down so we have less frequent full resets. However, my point was that it's got to the point where these taxes will barely affect the situation, and a full reset is required. I think it's probably too late for this already.

Quote from: tobminer on Jul 10, 2015, 02:03 PMOkay, but if there was a full reset in 2012 and it didn't fix this, why do you think it will now?

I mean, tow said it himself, he said 100m for one player and the rest of the server would be 1mish, is what it is right now. Just x2 and you got it. It's basic math, so the ratio is 200:10m, which is not near how much every player has if all money was going to be split into 10m's, only about 50 people would get 10m then it would go lower. So economy is fine, no one has a problem about it except Towelie.

So listen to the community, not just yourself.

Tob, nothing can ever stabilise SFT economy due to money being created and brought into existence by the emp. The point in taxes and resets is just to slow down the rate of inflation to try and prolong the economy. A full reset works best because it gives a chance to completely change the prices of items, and therefore affects the stability of the server economy greater. It also immediately puts everyone on an equal balance, meaning those huge fortunes no longer exist. The reason these taxes will have very little effect on the economy imo, is that those with large fortunes rarely spend money in ways that are effected by most of these changes, but also that it has been so long without intervention, and the richest people have monopolised certain     markets eg mallusa. Cty currently has 211mill and possibly more in assets. With the lotto changes, if cty bought 10 tickets every lottery, and never won, that'd be 5275 lotteries before he ran out of money. Assuming the lotto draws once every 24hrs, It'll take ~14 years before he runs out of money. And most likely, he will win at least a few of them.

How come I don't have access to donator board anymore? I've donated for fly and badges and auto shop perms. I'd like to be able to vote :)

I personally believe that these fixes wont help the problem in the end, and instead the only real solution is a full reset. Probably not a popular idea atm, but eventually it'll come to it. Problem is- richest people have so much money that its impossible to get it off them like this. Also, those who have stockpiled early steve.co crates will become even richer due to them no longer dropping, and prices rising. The lottery thing won't take money from the richest, because those who have a lot of money, don't gamble it all away like that, and even if they did, It'd take thousands of lotteries to bring them down to average wealth. cty has roughly 250000000. Maximum spend per lottery is 40000. It will take ~6250 lotteries to bring him to 0, and that's if he never wins.

I know from experience, as we've been trying to fix the SFT economy since before even 2011. Every fix is temporary, because of the way money is generated by the emp. The longest lasting fix was the full reset as it put everyone on level terms again. If a full reset was to occur, I would suggest looking at the prices for items, as they have been affected by the damaged economy.

Dear Diary,

Today I found that some members of Superfuntime started to make a fictional diary about what they thought my life was like. I was like 'wat xD' . If only they knew what I really did in my spare time, that I was a vigilante, roaming the streets of Romania, beating up petty criminals, and of course, the infamous xX_Dorito_kid420_Xx, who wreaks havoc upon my home town. But they must never know my true identity, to them I'm just a guy who goes to a boring job by day, and fixes servers by night...

Good night,

Sergiu (Towelie)
