Let me be the first to say this sounds really cool and exciting. Maybe have some admission tickets you can buy at a trade sign to get in, and I'd say around once a month would be good. +1!

 

+1, I think this is a good idea and might raise player amount up.

 

This is a really cool idea, only there is the issue of time zones. When would it be held? If it is held in American time what about the rest of the world? If it is held for a day or two there is the issue of stalls being empty and that wouldn't look good/be as fun. -1 for now but if my questions are solved (and solved well) +1

 

Why not have it on the day ecocitycraft was made? +1

 

Too late for that pal ;-;

 

What does that mean ;-;

 

Three months is enough time...

 

Jokes aren't fun when you have to explain them ;-;

 

But that joke wasn't even that funny ???

 

Forget about it ;-; New subject:

Great idea! once a month sounds good. It might bring in some new players :D

 

Time differences: Lots and lots of different people play at different times. Plus there is no such thing as "American time". Not a lot of people come "over seas" to play. (Referencing how the server is based in NA) A lot of our player base won't experience any problems. Also, any server event is held at a certain time, and if you can not make it, there is nothing you can do. The event will be held, whether you attend or not.

Stalls being empty: The stall will not be empty the duration of the event. It will not be an all day thing, but perhaps only 2 ish hours where the users running the stalls aren't forced to stay all day.

 

That is exactly why it should be a week like we agree on -_-

 

What I meant by this is the time zones that cover both north and south America. Hence "american time."

As for the rest, both of those suggestions are unreasonable. (Approximately) 7 billion people live on this planet but only (approximately) 916.2 million people live in the Americas. To just say "Hard luck..." to (Approximately) 6,083,800,000 people is unfair. Now I know that everyone on the planet isn't going to join ECC for it's virtual fare, but my point is that to have it held for only two continents is ludicrous.
A way to get around the problem of empty stalls is to have sections of the fare for different areas of the world, for example the sections could be: North and South America, Europe and Africa, Western Asia (this includes the Middle East) and Eastern Asia and Australasia.

 

+1 to the OP, +0.5 to this because I'd like to point out that ECC is an English-speaking server, so I don't think that this many sections are necessary, maybe just US and EU?

 

Have you not been on ECC like ever? All events say "hard luck" to many people. If you cannot come to an event, we will no work around you. If the majority can come, then that's just what we have to do. The idea of getting enough people, with enough time, with enough money, to run stalls for every "section" of the world is the unreasonable suggestion

 

This doesn't necessarily have to be server-run, any player could organize this themselves if they put enough effort in it.

+1
