Or even have daily server reset randomly choose a start map layout from a series of sets that have been created by GM and have been tested thoroughly.

Automatic Xmas and Easter etc…
This is not the place to discuss this.
Yes it is possible.

Alright, I got distracted by work (yay)...
I made teleports at start map hours ago, and added tidbits here and there as time went on.
Yes, I know the lake looks bad... the one spot was a "quirky" spot; but it functions so I left it rather than remove it.

Here's what the teleports look like:
Teleporter area: Show
ft0128startmap.PNG
ft0128startmap.PNG (1.28 MiB) Viewed 3966 times
Also, I'll add a teaser.
I did a little testing, and I found out a neat thing that can be done....
Perhaps, someone may see it, but it does not matter.
It will not be usable to players yet.
I've passed this along to the team, hoping to inspire them to ideas...
Especially, DaHobbit ;)
I think, he could use it to create some more of his "unique" events.
But there are other possibilities as well.
I'm hoping, the other GMs will become interested in doing some things for players more often.

So, a note to those of you who love these things: we need your help.
Please, show appreciation to the other GMs when they do stuff.
If anyone tries to put them down for it, don't let them.
Setting things up like this takes hours... and complaints don't inspire.
Don't let the negative people ruin the fun for the rest of us ;)
(and try not to break any rules; punishing players can spoil the mood too)

Have fun everyone ;)

It is really sad to think that players complain about the creativity that happens in map 0,0 or in the events maps (not sure which those are). It is really nice to log in at different times or days and see that the scenery has changed and that the staff is actually ACTIVE in game. If nothing else, what better reassurance to if staff is really there is there, than to see them actually moving around doing stuff. For those skeptics that say it takes away from their ability to moderate or manage the players needs in game, I have yet to see the creativity change the way the outcome of a dispute turns out.

I would love to give a special thanks to Mad, Hobbit, Arishiko and Ardesia as these are the only GM's I have seen in game. They are always polite, responsive and attentive.

Thank you all. Please keep all the creativity coming. The game is made new every day it seems because of the creativity. Thanks again!!!

Just a recommendation I tell to all:

You really should turn off the ducking autocorrect/word guessing stuff.

No, I don't get tired of that joke either.

Hugh Jackman, Hugh Laurie and Hugh Grant are three huge Hugh's :D

Hate it when a typo forms a real word and it doesn't know what I wanted to say.

I need a "What he really meant to type" checker, as long as it's not a MS product.. :D

LK hates that paperclip guy!

No worries. I thought you saw Mad and had fears of him plopping shrooms around your rock again and left from anxiety :)
