Cyc now transfers Land Tile -12/-8 to Donsig in exchange for Land Tile -3/-1.
Quoting Donsig: PM 11/05/02 11:41

Yeah you can post the tile trade. I haven't been in the RPG forums lately.

@Cyc - Please include a copy of the PM or a link to where donsig agreed to the swap.

I apologize for the delay but it should be worthwhile. Right now we're waiting for approval of Octavian and BCLG100 to use a new fair lottery system instead of the "rush the clock" system we have been using. donsig has already signed off on the rule change and I'm confident Octavian and BCLG100 will do so as well.

The basic idea is:
I will post the complete detailed ruleset once the RPG Managers have responded. I don't want to put them up right now because depending on their responses the rules may be changed or even not used at all for this availability and I don't want chaos and confusion in the office.
- Land Manager posts the availability
- Interested parties PM or post their preferred tiles
- After allowing 24 hours to respond, Land Manager sorts the interested parties randomly and runs down the list taking the highest preferred and available property as each player's "turn to purchase" comes up.
- At the bottom of the list, turn around and move back to the top doing the same thing.
- Players that have never owned a tile will always sort above any player who has owned a tile.

It will start as soon as I get an answer from Octavian and BCLG regarding the lottery style rules.

Shaitan - These secret rule changes are definitely too sneaky. They should be posted here to be discussed. I am totally against the use of PM's in this instance.

@bc: the bidding did not start yet... so please wait!
first you rpg managers have to say yes or no to the new rules, then the new announcement comes, then we post our lists.

BCLG100 and donsig have approved the rules, we're just waiting on Octavian's response.
@Cyc - Understandable, but with whole new systems it is a lot more efficient to get the basics in place and then refine with wisdom born of experience. That's how the RPG has evolved so much faster than DG1 did.
@SAAM - The map was posted this morning. The quality is my fault - Donovan's was a fine looking beast. I had to chop it down to get within the file size limits and was without my graphics PC today. Donovan will be handling the maps this availability and I'll be doing the paperwork.

No excuse, Mr. President. The basics are in place. We have been using them since Land sales began. IF you want to modify them, then lets discuss them. There will not be a lot more of these land sales available. I suggest your do it the right way. It seems you're trying to restrict the last of the Land Management transactions in a covert way. It definitely does not look like the proper thing to do.

Contrariwise, as this is a large offering I very much want to use it to prove out the new system and get it tweaked before I resign as Land Officer. Future land availabilities will be as large or larger. With a large number of cultural buildings queued we will tend to have a large number of simultaneous border expansions from culture. My only goal here is to get a simple and workable system in place before I retire.

OK.

As a note, I have approved the new measure. Let's get started! I want to expand Doughnutia!

I think you'll need to wait for shaitan now. It appears the rules are now changed to a lottery style so we won't even know how to buy land.
