1. Eastcaster is now open for business. As you can see from the thread, it's very expensive. http://www.ecocitycraft.com/forum/threads/eastcaster-official-town-thread.113571/

2. Since Lancaster and Southcaster are pretty much sold out, and we have two new towns in the neighborhood which we would really like to see succeed, I will be suspending all Lancaster and Southcaster marketing for the time being. If players show up in town looking for normal-priced plots, please refer them to either @gaget122 or @Samiwarbler. Not to say I won't sell plots if people want them, but we're not going to go out looking for them while new towns are getting started.

3. Congrats to Sami! Lilydale is now located SE of main Lancaster, south of Eastcaster and east of Southcaster. Lancaster City is now seven towns!

 

@Rosco424, we've got you covered, see the list at the top of the thread.

 

A few updates on the town:

1. @gstoner3 showed me a building he built in another town in the before times, in the long, long ago. I wanted one. He agreed to build one in Eastcaster:



2. The Lancaster Mall will soon be open for rentals on the site of the original town farm. My primary motivation in building it is NOT to make huge amounts of money on rent -- although shops will not be free -- but to create a functioning small market in our community, hopefully with lower prices and saving players without TP or Multihome the long trip to spawnshops. If you want to reserve a shop, DO NOT JUST PUT A SIGN ON ONE. I'm sick of people doing things like that. :) Just talk to me in-game.

 

Yeah, you three guys are fine -- I asked you to put that sign there. :)

 

And the mall is open! Buy yer stuff der.

 

@T_Ann, we are phasing out the old shops building now, and there is a wall of trade signs there with your name on them. Do you suppose you could log on sometime soon and remove them?

 

1.8 lets us make banners!

So naturally, a nation like Lancaster needs a flag. So I invented one, in the colors of my favorite college team. The official flag of Lancaster can be purchased exclusively from me (until someone else figures out how to make it, which is totally OK, too).
