January, 60EL: Contact
Lyhoko: The results of the pole are as follows: 1 vote for expanding the northern riverside, 0 votes for expanding the southern riverside, 1 vote for expanding into the mountains, and 5 votes for expanding Galesfeburg.
Downtown has expanded somewhat, though there is isn't yet a great desire to expand here, due to the still significant open areas around the city. The city hall, however, does make this region its home, located just off the main road at the bottom center of the picture.
Most of the recent development is down by the previous extension of town, though in this case it mainly just fills in the gap that was left between the two parts of town. The sort of open blocks in this region also allow for sizable open areas for the kids to play, as well.
The new powerplant has been surrounded by development as well.
For whatever reason, a lot of shops have popped up in this region...
And now, back to downtown, except at night. The farmer's market is looking a bit out of place now... Maybe it should be moved to another part of town?
And of course, the map. Click for full size.
Lyhoko: 0th Street?
Space
Roughly 100 light years rimward and anti-spinward of the planet Maiyan a Myonian CS-1 dropped out of a wormhole on the edge of a solar system.
Captain: Begin scans.
Crew 1: Will do.
...
Crew 1: Nothing of note to speak of here.
Crew 2: Just another empty system, with no signs of life of any sort.
Crew 3: Huh?
Captain: What is it?
Crew 3: A ship just showed up on the long range scanners, in subspace. Estimated arrival time is 1 minute.
Captain: What sort of ship?
Crew 4: Unknown, no record of this sort of ships is in the databanks.
Captain: Raise shields.
The CS-1's shields activated, and several seconds later, a hole in the fabric of space opened up and spat out a ship.
Roughly 2000km away, the new ship activated its own shields and powered its weapons, without even bothering to try to communicate.
Lyhoko: Up next is the next census, and the continuation of the encounter.
Poll
Lyhoko: What should be added to town next?
Lyhoko: Remember to look closely at which option is which number when voting. Don't say something like "3 - expand southern riverbank." 3 is expand to the mountains, expanding the southern riverbank is 2.
Lyhoko: Voting is now closed!
1: 5 votes
Expand the northern riverbank region
2: 0 votes
Expand the southern riverbank region
3: 3 votes
Expand farther south, towards the mountains
4: 3 votes
Expand Galesfeburg
Lyhoko: Please choose one option per poll at a time... but you may vote more than once, as long as you do not double post. Let other people have a chance to vote!
Lyhoko: Feel free to offer suggestions on how to implement things as well. Or suggestions on new improvements for later on.
