My thought are 1 house per Person but we allow more co owners so that maybe a group of 5 people can live together in one house but we change the prices on co owners aswell. Since we are going to be asking everyone to move out we can also change Kanto pricing to match Johto Infaltion. So we would need to settle on a higher n standard fee for new co-owners, along with boundaries n guidelines with it.

I hate the idea of co-owners. I always have. No way to keep track of them, or to know when they overdo their limit or their time-out period for a house. I say change the price of houses overall by setting a standard price-per-block in the house. So if your house is 2x6, you would pay 12x(some cost here) it would make the housing in the ghetto (vermilion, saffron south) fair, and it would also make larger houses go to veteran players. I feel like it would drain money from rich people, and also give cheap ass houses to poor starters, while keeping the status of co-owners not needed.
If we really wanted to create civil war, we could multiply johto rates by 2 or something.
I just hate the way co-owners can't be kept track of. Not to mention never knowing who the co-owner and who the main owner of a building IS.
And it would really piss off a bunch of people trying to set up a clan in the giant boats.
The English clan (Talegends Archiesalt, Jeddeth, Pricey447) in particular.

I also was never a fan of co owners. I say everyone gets one house. If u need to co own a house, buy your own or go to the bank. If the banks not enough, go to a hotel.

Hotel = pseudo co-owner, I still disapprove. With per-block pricing, cheap tiny houses will fit aspiring trainers who arent satisfied with the free bank.

But this leaves the problem of factions like cinnabar which has 1 house and 1 gym, and viridan which has like 2 houses. Forcing them to be TINY factions

With the spread of houses around the cities, there is no way to completely balance out the scale of people who flock to any city. Saffron has big houses, it and celadon will go first. People dont want to go to cinnabar, and the gym leader may end up just teaming up with another city for survival.

Yeah, cities can work together. Cinnibar can team up with other cities to make up.

I'm in favor with Co-owners. But we could always put more limitations, like, they have to pay off the 5K eventually, such as a weekly payment. I don't know, just pitching ideas.

sigh never come to a conclusion. I like 1ce's pricing on blocks but I strongly support atleast 1-2 co-owners. Maybe we can have them for the section the reside in? idk. Do the cube pricing include the infin down blocks aswell>?
Title: Re: House Rules n Factions
Post by: 1cec0ld on February 07, 2012, 02:42:48 pm
Wouldn't matter, they all have the same amount under. If you have more showing on top, you'll have more underneath. It's directly proportionate. So we can say either way as long as its constant.

Okay first off lets cover one thing at a time, Pricing. We do it by the block, Sound good?


Second off Co owners. What limitations and price do they hafta pay, and how many. I say like 40% of the price ONTOP of the original price, 2 co owners, but they cannot own their own house. So lets say its 10K For the house, so Trainer1 buys it. Now trainer1's friend Trainer2 wants to move in, Its 4k. Now trainer1's n trainer2's friend Trainer3 wants to move in. Another 4k. Now thats 18k for a 10k house. Sounds pretty solid. Just one thought though. Lets get this ball rolling.

Zombie, does your plan work off only 3 coowners?
Title: Re: House Rules n Factions
Post by: zombiedood on February 10, 2012, 08:06:08 pm
My Idea would be 2 co owners 1 owner 3 people total but thats just my idea of how much should be allowed. Its up to change not set in stone

I am against co-owners too. I hate regulating it because people can easily lie and I don't have time to check all houses to see if they are really in certain houses. Seriously, the only time we find these violations is by accident, not through us regulating it.

I think Co owners are a must but must be regulated n controlled. with limits and higher fees.
Title: Re: House Rules n Factions
Post by: 1cec0ld on February 16, 2012, 11:04:25 am
Why are they a must?
Title: Re: House Rules n Factions
Post by: Paradox on February 16, 2012, 07:11:08 pm
That's my main problem, regulation. I find it difficult to regulate, and with Johto and other regions coming out whenever, I feel like it will be near impossible.

its so towns with 1 house dont have a faction number of one, the gymlead, his co and a close buddy could take it and make it a Team. Making them a real force.

We can calm down on this, considering we agreed that co-owners were ok as long as we can tell by their faction where they live, and only allow one house per person.

And I don't know if anyone heard me, but its my opinion that we should get people with the one-house-per program soon. So possibly as soon as the last house is built, say that we can sell, but only one per person globally.
I'm not sure if we resolved that or not.

We have once we Finish with the actual physical part of johto we will hopefully have already started them migrating/downsizing into one house and then those able move to johto when its open. sounds solid. We also allow co-owners. 1 or 2?

And to what zombie said also (i dont know how to multi quote..)
We agreed at the admin meeting that it would be only one co-owner. and you could only buy one house...and if you already live in someones house you cant buy a house. (so you can only live one place)
Not to hard to remember.
