Today we starting the Construction brigade event; it is 5th event of such kind where you can build a new city or a country!
After all these years this even became a tradition which players enjoy so we couldn't skip it this time.
Players on all realms (Vera, Olga, Mary and Lien) will have an opportunity to participate.
 
GENERAL RULES
 
Rules are same as they used to be.
To build a new city a player should pay certain amount of money which depends on the city’s location and its population.
BASE COST is a price for a city with population from 50 to 250 thousand people. For bigger cities you should pay an ADDITIONAL COST, for each 50 000 over 250 000. (It does not mean you can build a real city with hither population then in real life, it means that big cities cost more)
 
As an exception you can build a smaller city (<50 th.) if it has cultural, sport or another kind of fame in real life.
 
As a reference of city’s population we accept links from open sources, such as: citypopulation.de

[+] BASE COST (ADDITIONAL COST) for cities on the VERA and OLGA realms[-] BASE COST (ADDITIONAL COST) for cities on the VERA and OLGA realms

 
ADDITIONAL RULES
  • City will be built on one realm, where a founder paid
  • Only cities which exits in real life can be added
  • Donation can be accepted only from one person, a founder of the city
  • Money will be taken manually after final confirmation from administration
  • Founder of a city will receive an unique award with city’s cost of arms without bonuses
  • Founder can ask for a mayor position in the city if he wants
  • Founder will have 50% discount on all point property in the city (mines, farms, villas, etc) build there before October 14th. To get property with discount founder should write a personal message to diska. Founder should have all required amount (points) on his account (with a discount) and then money will be taken and property will be given.
  • Characteristics of the new city will be determined by administration. Founder can propose to add there a resource. It is possible to add a resource which exists in this city (and its reasonable surroundings) in real life. For 3rd category countries it is possible to add 1 new resource. For 2nd category its 2 and for 1st category you can add up to 4 different resources.
  • Applications are accepted until September 31th
  • Administration have a right to decline building a city until money were taken from a player

“BUILDING” NEW COUNTRIES
 
We introduced this feature in 2015 and it is available for you this year as well. Rules are the same as before except the first two which were added.
 
GENERAL RULES

  • The country must have a proper legal status and be recognized by the world community
  • All party members of a country founder will get 50% discount in this country on all point property until October 10th, 2016 (via the personal message to Diska)
  • The major and the only one payment for a new country should be done by spending points. The cost depend on population of a new country:
    - up to 100 000 people – 300 points
    - from 100 000 to 500 000 people – 500 points
    - from 500 000 to 1 000 000 people – 1000 points
    - more then 1 000 000 people 1000 points +250 points for each millions of people (small adjustments are possible)
  • Building can be done by a group of people in the same political party. In that case money could be taken from each (or certain) members.
  • Half of points invested in country could be spend on buying new point property in this country.
  • Mayor/Governor/Presidential seats will be distributed between party members according to the application of the party’s leader.
  • Basic cost including 5% bonus to the quality of goods produced in the new country (Make it realistic, for example milk only in small Alps countries, etc). This bonus can get only countries with population of 500 000 people and more.
  • Resources. The majority of small countries can’t brag about rich resources but many of them have some life, bananas are growing and fish playing around. Therefore in countries which have population from 100 000 one resource can be found, in countries with more then 500 000 people – two resources and in countries with more than 1 million people – 3 different resources. Resources can get only countries with population of 100 000 people and more.
  • Awards. Party’s leader (or another person if party’s leader agrees) will get an award of a country discoverer and awards for each city in the country without bonuses.
  • New country will have a minimum one city (the official capital) and all cities with population more then 50 000 people. Additional payments for those cities ARE NOT NEEDED.

All additional details can be discussed in private manner. If you have a question, write a private message to diska. Also you can check the previous event of such kind to see how it usually goes.

"All party members of a country founder will get 50% discount in this country on all point property until October 10th, 2016 (via the personal message to Diska) 
 
Half of points invested in country could be spend on buying new point property in this country. "
 
Is it safe to assume (for next time hopefully) that if I spend 500 points I could get 500 points worth of property? If not I'd have to use 625 points to just break even, too expensive...
 
"Mayor/Governor/Presidential seats will be distributed between party members according to the application of the party’s leader."
 
If in a corporation what if the leader wasn't the majority point giver if at all? Shouldn't said person (people) decide instead?
 
Oh do the country makers have to pay for a realistic population, because if that's the case I can see why it's rarely done...
 
Also the prices are the same on all realms, which for lien realm is unfair... After all even Diska themselves said this (Google translate sucks)
"Despite the fact that the Realm was originally the most "poor" for cash to top action"
 
For someone to get 2 trillion on lien they would need to bring in and save $5,479,452,054.80 per turn. I only bring in about that less costs like repairs etc...
 
For lien I think this even would be more popular if the cash costs where cut by 10. Even if it means property purchase discounts got cut down to 10%/25% depended on size.
 
Simply put just adjust the event to better suit the realm in question. Really isn't hard seeing as it's all manually done anyways...
 
Before anyone complains, I know some have trillions in cash to waste on lien but look at the numbers even on Mary... Olga is likely 100 trillion+ Vera half that, but lien? Currently a laughable 17.8 trillion

Stingy or just can't/won't pay for it? There's a huge difference between the 3...
 
I'd pay for a new country even right now, if I knew about the property acquisition setup (as mentioned above).
 
Lack of detail is the real game killer for this event... But if it saves me money why the hell am I complaining? Canadians, eh?
