-The week after3 -- NEW MAP

I haven't asked Jay about this yet, but if possible and Jay's alright with it, I will be copying 2ish (Maybe more, maybe less) buildings for whoever asks it, so they don't feel they have wasted their work and hopefully, if all mods are updated correctly, I will be able to paste them wherever you guys would like on the new map.

Bump.  Implemented a dwarfbucks system to allow for further carry-over into the next map, once the stuff is updated.

 So mine out huge swaths of metaprojects and sell them into money for the next map? We'll be like the ancient robbers who stole the riches of the Egyptian tombs, or the barbarians who raided Greece.

I was gonna say, is there an explanation of what this means and how it works somewhere?

The moment the lever was pulled, somebody's pet kitten stepped onto the bridge. I read somewhere that if a cat falls more than 11 stories, it instinctively flares its legs out to increase air resistance. This slows it down enough to stick the landing with relatively minor injuries. In Dwarf Fortress, apparently, cats don't do that.

What it means is that you can sell some rare items for "cash", which can be used to buy stuff - even on the new map. This'll put you "ahead of the pack" so to speak.
Type /shop help in the chat or /money help and you'll get more details.

Example prices: 10 bucks/cactus chunk to buy, 180 bucks per diamond block to sell, 300 to buy. 5000 bucks to buy TNT.

To make money, the suggested course of action is convince Jay to build a tower out of diamond blocks, make a power pick, and then mine it out.

That or convince people to pay exorbitant sums of cash for other goods.

Ok, I was going to ask if this was already being (ab)used because of lag duplication bugs, etc, but it sounds like that kind of answers my question. I'll probably just start from scratch anyway. Thanks!

 And then people rush to Jays throne to steal the jewels it is made out of. Little do they know the curse set upon those who would touch the sacred mound.

To be fair, when the diamond block tower occurred, I don't think Jay realized he would be putting in an economy.

@Duke: The throne is protected by cuboid so I'm pretty sure it can't be mined by anyone but Jay.... does... does that count as a curse?

And to be fair, most items are not very valuable. Eg: Sell 32 cobblestone for 5 bucks, that sort of thing. Only feathers, ores and diamonds - maybe redstone - are actually worth selling, and a large number of the remaining items cannot be sold.
