magnum2016 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 7-25-2014- NOTICE: this server will be whitelisted once released. If you're interested, you can reserve a spot by sending me a private message with an username and password. I'll be posting any usernames I get on here so people know what's already taken. The guideline for picking your username is very simple: only full first and last names (e.g. Jason Booney, doesn't have to be your real name ofc), nicknames (e.g. lil J), or roleplay based professions (i.e. Lone Survivor/ Farmer). No numbers or symbols (e.g. punctuation, underscore, slash...etc.). HOST NEEDED Well everyone i am back I took about a two month leave from this game after the server i was planning to make the multiplayer town on began lagging and eventually was shut down. However i am ready to start things up again and all i need is someone to host the server, If you are interested in hosting the server please post here or message me so we can begin discussions. Information On How I Would Like The Server To Be --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Public Server Heavy Roleplay PVP OnOne Life (Players can of course rejoin if they die under new name)No Griefing (NO Breaking Downs Walls To Settlements must go through the entrance. However windows may be broken as well as doors, no burning down bases.) No Mods I would like to become an admin in the server so i can do events Actual Game Settings Zombie Population: Normal-HighDay Length: Anywhere from 2-24 HoursWater: 6 Months-2 Years Electricity: 6 Months -2 Years Loot Rarity: Normal-High (Remember we will not do resets) Zombie Settings Speed: Shamblers-Fast ShamblersStrength: Normal-Superhuman Toughness: Normal-Tough Infection Mortality: Roughly a weekReanimation Time: Instantly Member: Normal-Long Decomposition: Slows+Weakens Sight: Normal Hearing: Normal-Pinpoint Smell: Normal ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Information About The Town Name The name of the town will be voted on as soon as we get the server set up Politics Not only do we have to deal with the thousands of undead relentlessly smashing down our walls or the hordes of bandits who have there eyes set on stealing what is ours but we also have to deal with each other and doing what is in the best interests of the community. The Government will be a Republic with a self-elected leader (Me for the time being), however after the leader serves his term an election will occur and the people will vote for a leader who is in the best interest of the settlement. The Council The Council speak for the people, for every 5 members of the town one council member will be selected, the council will vote on every major event that is affecting the settlement, however anything that the council passes will have to be signed by the Mayor/President. Every council member will serve roughly 2 weeks (Real Life) before elections begin and a new council is created. VotingNo major action will occur without it being passed off by the council and the Mayor/President. Every major act will have to be voted on whether it is building farms or increasing the Local Security/Armed Forces. Everyone that is a member of the town will have a vote whether they are a member of the council or a civilian of the settlement. Council member votes are worth 5 votes While civilians are worth 1 Jobs Everyone is expected to pull there weight around the settlement whether they are a member of the council or a newly joined survivor, if a member of the civilian does not pull there weigh they will be punished (Check Penalty System Below) Security MemberThe Towns Security Team is in charge of the safety and survival of the entire town, they will mainly be on guard duty walking the parameter and occasionally eliminating/routing large nearby hordes. They will very rarely go on missions that involve leaving the general area of the settlement. Armed Forces Veteran Members of the Towns Security Team will form the [insert Towns Name Here] Armed Forces, they are expected to be made within the first 2 (Real Life) weeks of the towns existence. They will commonly destroy infected hordes and eliminate hostile raider groups. Scavenger The main backbone of the town, Scavengers are in charge of supplying the town with not only food and water but also medication and weaponry, without scavengers the town will surely die due to lack of supplies. Farmer/Doctor In charge of tending crops as well as patching up wounded town members, they are rarely sent outside alone and when they are they tend to have heavy escort. Carpenter Possibly the most demanding job in the entire town they are responsible for keeping the towns infrastructure top notch. Part Time Jobs Jobs that members of the town conduct as well as there main jobs Executioner/Sheriff (Must be member of the Armed Forces Or Security) Responsible of Executing or watching prisoners Militia All members of the settlement will be expected to conduct atleast 4 hours of security duty every week to ensure the protection of the settlement, Infrastructure The town will be 100% player-made The town itself is expected to be about the size of the the West Point Highschool if not slightly bigger It will have a large perimeter wall that will surround the entire town There will be roughly 10-25 buildings inside the town For anyone wondering yes we will have a town hall late game We will also have a prison where we will lock corrupt members of the town up ResourcesWithout resources the town is nothing, maintaining a very steady supply of resources is key to keeping the town operational, every single day someone will look over all of the towns supplies and determine what we need more of. The town will have two main stockpiles of supplies one in the warehouse which every member of the town will be able to take from with proper permission and an undisclosed stockpile for emergency supplies. Rations Every member of the town will receive daily rations of food and water and other supplies that are needed for there jobs, every job will receive the same amount of food daily to ensure that no one is more important than the other. Extra Rations Members of the Security Team or Armed Forces will be daily rations of ammunition which will usually contain 15-20 rounds per day. Relations The town will be kind and accepting to all survivors and even raiders as long as they do not pose a threat to the town. As long as everyone checks out at the gate they will be allowed inside to trade. The town is not afraid to kill other survivors and raiders if they are caught stealing or harassing or hurting other members. Penalty SystemWe will not allow disorder inside of the town, and any civilian caught breaking laws will be punished. StealingWill be forced to give back items and if they stole from another member of the fort they will lose 1-7 days of rations and the rations will be given to the survivor.(If severe they will be executed) Disobeying Orders Punishment can be anywhere from loss of rations to exile of the settlement or even execution.Whipping is also a very common punishment (Being hit several times with an baseball bat) Murdering other membersExecution Murdering other survivorsDepending on relations with the survivor More to come soon! Extra information The town will have atleast one guard on duty 24/7 to keep the town safe Information On The Server Itself EventsYes, events! This is probably the most dynamic thing, there will be a wide assortment of events here are some examples of the many events that this server will present. Dropped Supply Bag: An resource bag has been dropped by a survivor that was traveling through the city. This bag can contain ammo, guns, food and medical supplies. Air Drops: Crates dropped with supplies on the map at certain times. A horde is likely to be on or nearby the location. Location will be detailed by the admin (as I have no way to send it over a server-message). Hordes: Hordes will routinely become a problem for survivors, but this also means more XP options and fun for those who like a bit of challenge. Supply Area Overrun: An house filled with supplies will be overrun and it will be the players choice to clear it and get the supplies or ignore it. Please give me suggestions on what I should change Also if you are interested in joining this town please say so in this post _coMbaT and Whittos 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magnum2016 Posted July 18, 2014 Author Share Posted July 18, 2014 Well it seems like we will have a steady and loyal player base all i need now is to find someone to host the server, The main issue is i am looking for a server that i will not have to pay for but instead just find someone who is interested in joining the town and has the capabilities to start the server, of course we could go for donations to run a server because it really would not be that expensive but i would honestly feel bad having players donate to keep the server up.

gigadrain Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 This server seems like a really great idea! I'd totally join it if it ever got up and running! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magnum2016 Posted July 19, 2014 Author Share Posted July 19, 2014 Well i have contacted a lot of people but sadly no responses yet..... I did get an offer for a very cheap server for about $5-$10 Dollars per month which is very cheap for the reliability of the server and the servers that he does host tend to have very little lag. However the issue still stands that i do not want to spend money to get the server and i would prefer to get the server going for free by finding someone who would start the server due to the interest in the idea. However if players would be interested in donating i would not have an issue with the server and anyone who would donate even just $1 would be praised in the town and easily get seats in the council etc. However i would still feel bad having people pay for the server so if players don't want to it would be extremely okay with me and i would understand and i also want players to understand i am still looking for every other option other than paying for an actual server.

It's always a bit questionable why someone should spend their money for someone else, is probably why you are having such trouble finding someone.

I 100% agree with you, however i do not want to pay for the server so i am hoping to come across someone who is already wanting to make a server and then i could convince them to jumpstart the "Multiplayer Town". If i was willing to pay i would already have the server running no doubt because several people have said they would start the server if i paid them. Lets hope we can find someone to do it out of the goodness of there heart..... and for the love of killing zombies! Also i have decided to not start the server even if someone says they will until Build 28 is released considering it is coming soon and it will release alot of features that are needed for the town.

magnum2016 Posted July 20, 2014 Author Share Posted July 20, 2014 Okay i have found someone willing to start the server, i went on a server they already have and it was running smoothly with very rare lags, however this was only with me and one other player on the server at one time meaning i am not sure how the server will react to 15-20 players on at one time...... However we have found someone willing to host the server! But.... We will be waiting until Build 28 is released to begin building the town because Build 28 has tons of needed features such as journal entries as well as new constructions and lastly the bolt action rifle! I will still be looking for someone to host the server however for the time being we atleast have someone who is willing to host it Starting tomorrow i will make a skype channel and a forums where we can discuss idea's and get an idea of how this town will be ran Ryfar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeoIvanov Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 I guess you can still keep the "donate" feature out there somewhere, so whoever is hosting doesn't one day gets discouraged and goes "Meh I don't want to host anymore", so you could spare him the money as a motivation to keep a server running. Good will, fun games and all, but people have to pay the bills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magnum2016 Posted July 20, 2014 Author Share Posted July 20, 2014 Well it all matters on the price of the server i have seen some people request $20 to host the server and some only request $5 but i have also encountered some that want $100 per month its all a general preference, of course if the server did start and we got a steady player base i believe we would not have that much issues paying for the server, its just getting that player base and showing them what we have is unique. I have also become in contact with another server owner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magnum2016 Posted July 21, 2014 Author Share Posted July 21, 2014 Well when the server is up i will be on the lookout for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magnum2016 Posted July 21, 2014 Author Share Posted July 21, 2014 Okay if you would be interested in applying to be part of the council (The starting council you will be in it for 1-2 Weeks then elections will take place) please message me and we will discuss it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryfar Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Will you be allowed to be an outsider of sorts (a wanderer, or a trader, or a wandering trader) if the town itself is stable and populated enough for such a position? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magnum2016 Posted July 21, 2014 Author Share Posted July 21, 2014 When the server starts players will not be required to join the town and they may freely start there own civilizations however we will discourage everyone from being raiders so the town does not die off because it will be the main life line of the server. To be part of the council you have to be a civilian of the town so a Trader/Wanderer cannot be part of the council. Ryfar and 956Texas 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
