Test Of The Megalopolis > Equal Burden Megalopolis

so the stranger has set us another challenge, the test of the megolopolis. anchient paparie tell of an egypt which worked together to complete this great test BUT he has other ideas this time. by mentioning the feats of a brilliant architect of old he has attempted to inspire competition and a sense of pride keeping us from progressing through the tests. not the teamwork which aided our ancestors. so i propose we do things the way of our grandfathers and work as a team by each pledging 1/49 of the the maximum of every material required.

please add yourself to the table if you wish to join this megalopalis group and sign up to the guild at 1158, -942 (8-10) mins from karnak cs

IMPORTANT

• 2005-02-18 MEGADN and Equal Burden Megalopolis merge to meet their goal (Make sure you apply at the MEGADN guild, not many spaces left, check the site first)

• stage 1: we each make the materials listed below
• stage 2: the location is chosen for functionality (and not just the region of the founder).a compound is set up with a wood plane and amply brickracks to build the chests beside the megalopalis site (each participant with there own huge chest). around 10-20 rock saws are built at this compound to cut all the stone
• stage 3: bricks, boards and cut stone are made on-site
• stage 4: carry food is made at every chariot stop for pledgers to carry materials to the central megalopolis
• stage 5: arange a date and build the megalopolis
• stage 6: we all get struck by lightning

- I've been working at the MEGADN guildhall/compound smashing med stones into gravel and making iron bars when there is iron and charcoal in the chests. I've also been carrying most of the donations that Fox and I have ready to that guild hall to be accounted for in the total count on the MEGADN site. I find it easier to take it all there than bring it to EBM to later to take to MEGADN and it's easier to go by what is already stashed at MEGADN. But that is just my opinion. Stashed some stuff for paints in the chest by Zab's compound, this way they don't have to run far to get to it, chest only held 2500 so there wasn't much room for alot of ingredients. It would be best to finish one color first so I know what to bring you. Bringing random ingredients gets confusing. I think they built a paint mixer in the MEGADN compound, may or may not be finished, I'd have to check. Later for now. :) ~ Lelani
(P.S. Let me know if you'd like me to carry things over to the site to be counted in. I'm bound to go that way anyways.)

notes: if your name is already written under the pledged colum it means someone has already covered for your quantity of that material. this happens when person does not want to waste materials by making 100 treated boards so they just make the full 500.

Paints

one task as a participant of this megalopolis will be unique. this will be done by the paint mixer who will be exempt from getting any materials him/herself but will have to make just over 2300 batches of paint and be provided with the materials by other participants (each giving 1/48 of the required materials)i will re-do the above tables for 1/48 of the materials

Zabina and I can make those colours below. We will sort out the cheapest recipes between us and post the resources required if thats ok. - Ptau.
