I'm completely remodeling the map, or at least I WILL be remodeling it. It's going to have the emblem in the corner, and a few other renovations. Now, it would be rather silly to make such a large update for one reason, that being adding the emblem, but you see it's not just that. I will be making a larger alteration, but I need every citizens help. I've started making cottages for the kingdom, this video will explain some;
Once I make a little more profit, and have built more cottages the rent will go down. It's only as pricey as it is now so I can buy furniture for future cottages, speaking of I have finished the fourth in line, here's a small screenshot of it;
'Course this is just a single part of the interior, but I'm sure you've gotten the idea of the theme of this particular cottage (ノ´ヮ´)ノ
It may take a large sum of time to finish 40+ cottages, but I'm for the task, if you'd like to move your household into one of the cottage, please comment.
I'm sure this idea seems silly, why waste your gems to own a den you can't even edit?
- It enhances roleplay, recall the social classes added to each household, they were simply pointless until now. The more regal your housing, clothing, etc... is shall determine your social standing. By regal I do not mean rare, for housing I'm referring to it being more extravagant, and towards clothing I mean things like jewellery, capes, etc...
- It adds a hint of realism.
- Your den won't have to be altered for the sake if the roleplay any longer, and it's always nice to give your persona a suiting home.
- I can make a cottage specifically for you, and you alone.
- I have a system in which you can have neighbors.
- If your household has more than one member you won't have to argue, and/or bicker about who's den will be your housing.
- Your own den doesn't HAVE to be on the map if you don't want it to be considering you'll be living in a cottage, therefore your den shall only be on the map if it is a recreational destination (bakery, forest, hideout, etc...)
- It simply makes editing the map easier for the future map admin, as well as myself. It's more organized.
- It's a new job opportunity for those willing to edit, and create new cottages.
- In my own opinion, although I'm not sure if it's shared by others' it's rather fun, and it gives are kingdom something original.
- It's land! If we lose a battle a portion of the cottages will go to the enemy, of course we will discuss this pre-battle, and make sure they have land to offer us if they happen to lose.
- I will most likely giving Jake and Violet a portion of the kingdom to rule in the near future, therefore they will be able to edit a few of the cottages, and collect the rent, which as I said before enhances the role play.
- With the map update, it will be easier to pinpoint a Celestial Towers specific destination for future role play/ mini plays.
- I'm donating some of the profit to the Animal Jam Non-Member by buying colored items, and sending them to them.
- I can alter the dens for the sake of roleplay, say every other week I'll have some strange happening (pest attack, raid, storm, enchantment, etc...) at a randomly picked cottage, or set of cottages (considering I will be putting them into separate sectors of the kingdom)
- In future events I can give each citizen who arrives a small gift with a small sum of the profit.
- Last, but not least, I like the idea. Honestly, I'm kind of proud of myself for thinking of it, and already having four of the dens complete.
Thanks for reading that tediously long list.
Now, as Hawk/Jake mentioned in his last post, we haven't done Monthly Surveys.
I don't know why, but I've completely disregarded that idea, and there's no reason to it. So let's start with are first, of many to come, please notify all citizens to comment, answering the survey, and possibly renting a cottage, and/or future cottage;
What's your family name (last name)?
How many residents?
How many are children?
Jobs?
What is your social standing?
What are your thoughts on cottages?
*yawns* I suppose I should rest, farewell, and goodnight.
P.S. Multiple Must Read Posts Below ;D

I'd prefer you make a side account for the cottage, but it's fine if you don't want to.
DeleteI'll make CelestialCottage013 :)
Delete_molly_

Good idea, although maybe add a few close friends? And myself, and the other royals considering it's expected we'd be allowed to check up on the citizens.
DeleteI've had an idea that Celestial Towers could use to give it that more Medevil touch . . . You could host festivals like they did way back then usually for good harvest etc.
ReplyDelete- Rayem2
That's an insanely good idea, and I will not only take it into consideration, I will make it so!

Is it okay if I make a cottage? It would keep me busy for a little while, my dad has 3 e-mails and one he mainly uses, but the cottage accounts probably don't need to require free-chat, right? Well, I'll wait for your response sometime after this comment. ( I'll probably only make one though ) ( Also thanks for liking my festival idea! ) -Rayem2
ReplyDeleteIt's completely fine, actually it'd be great if you made a cottage! They don't need freechat X3
DeleteDoes anyone notice that CelestialCottage007 isn't even made? .3. -Rayem2
ReplyDelete030
DeleteYeah, I was getting to that X3
DeleteI can talk to Glaze about getting one together
ReplyDeleteAlright!
DeleteMay I have cottage 13?
DeleteAhh! So many comments!
ReplyDeleteFirst thing I wanted to say, I have always been wondering if we could switch the royal castle to the princess castle? O3O
Maybe we could have 2 castles/palaces? I could have the princess castle for the royals to live in, and your castle can be for the dungeon/dining/balls and etc. Is this a good idea? I would love to host the 'housing palace' at my den! :)

I'm sorry I've been so inactive. Please read the latest post on my blog, Animal Jam Rant, to learn more. I'll really be inactive until August. I'll try to get online, but it'll be rarely. Sorry, fellow citizens and Queen Peppy. I hope I don't get exiled for it or anything, but I'll be inactive this summer. Thanks for understanding, bye!

Portland is an interesting city. Dennis' daughter lived in Lake Oswego, a suburb, for awhile. She drove us out to Yamhill Valley where so many vineyards and orchards dot the landscape. I wonder if your son got outside of the city. It's a beautiful area.
