Yeah, I know, but it wouldn't do much harm. Plus, I wanted you guys to know that I'm FINALLY BACK, 2 months after I said "I'll be back as soon as I can"
Eh. You could've sent a PM and posted in the thread.

Anyway, sending a PM means that you definitely get the coordinates, and there's no duplication of effort. It's true that it's not all that harmful, though.



I added a line to the OP requesting that people actually PM someone specific.

Just so people know, there is a temporary way up to the farm, around the back side. Please stop pillaring up, cobblestone is annoying to remove.

They're nearly as bad as badgers. Build a couple of anti-buzzard SAM sites marksdwarf towers and your fortress will look like Baghdad in 2003 from all the aerial bolt spam. You waste a lot of ammo and everything is covered in unslightly exploded buzzard bits and broken bolts.

If nobody objects, I would like to be named interim minister of Finance. I have the most economic contacts of anyone here, except maybe Marc. If appointed, I will launch the Developing Wealth And Regaining Funds (DWARF) initiative. Part of the DWARF initiative will be the DIGGR (Delve Into Ground, Get Riches) program. This is as follows:
1. get pick
2. dig hole
3. get shinies from hole
4. sell shinies

Any questions?

I think that we should first figure out whether we'll have a minister of finance.

We haven't set up a system of government, yet.

I'd really like to see an economy in our fort, with everything having a price. Of course, the price is, precious metals. Maybe each iron ingot would be worth 5D, each gold would be worth 25D, a diamond would be worth 100D, Lapis would be 1D, Redstone would be 2D, and coal would be 4D. Emeralds? They're useless.

What does D stand for?
"Dollars", I would assume?

Dwarven Money. The D is for the D in dwarven. I guess we could call them Denier, after the old Norman Currency. Or whatever that was.

By the way, Parade Palace is my house. I thought that was obvious, but apparently it wasn't. I would appreciate it if, in the future, people refrained from taking it over. Thanks.

tahu would be good for handling internation finances for us.

A few notes about using D for values: D tends to stand for diamond. Also, emeralds are worth a lot on this server, since they are used for storing XP bottles in a compact way.
Do we even need an in-fort economy right now, though? We've been functioning with a less-than-capitalist system for a while - while people trade a bit and have personal possessions, they tend to donate stuff to public use and like to contribute to public construction/mining projects for free.

I don't see much of a point in having an economy, either. Do most cities have economies?

We should use ☼ for our currency.
I don't think that symbol exists in Minecraft, unfortunately.

We'd need an alternate symbol for use on the server. "*", maybe?

Do altcodes work? If not, then yeah, * should work. When would we use it, though?
