TOWN TRANSFERThis past week was a big transition for one of our own Senior Admins, as Oplegoman left his long-time town of CODE for Tranquila. I sat down with Ople to discuss why he left Code.Ev: So the question that's been a lot of peoples mind: why did you leave your longtime town of CODE?
Ople: One of the reasons I felt like leaving Code would have been that I would have been in that town for well over a year, I believe I joined Code either just before I was a moderator or when I became a moderator, it very much felt like I needed a change of scenery and engage with other members of the community. Also another reason is the 'relentless' attacks upon my very beloved shop BuildyBlocks! Shop loyalty over Town loyalty! looking at NotA and Stycore
Ev: I definitely get that. Sometimes a change in scenery is best to freshen things up and I'm glad you were able to realize that (even though I and many others will miss having you in Imperium). Now that you're in Tranquila, what are your goals there?
Ople: Not much really, as with any town I have been in I do not engage with town matters all that much. My one aim is to make BuildyBlocks even better and many in the future 'hire' others to help run my shop or have their own little markets under the BuildyBlocks banner
Ev: Gotcha. Definitely glad you touched on BuildyBlocks, as this was going to be my final question for you. BuildyBlocks has been a booming success for both the server and yourself, did you always see BuildyBlocks becoming the attraction it is today?
Ople: I wanted BuildyBlocks to be big for business but I never thought it would be such a big thing on the server, but that might be down to me and my constant 'promotion' as a store I think it has done well as it focused on a particular set of products to sell and its in the name that they are all building blocks and that I have made sure that for the most part it has always been in stock ensuring people comeback when they need certain blocks!
Ev: Absolutely. Promoting your business is one thing, but having a consistent product that goes with it is what ultimately brings success. Good stuff, thanks for your time Ople!
Ople: No problem at all.
EGGS!!!!!Eggs!!! Need I say more? Since late February, the primary event of the server has been the Easter egg hunt. Players must search between Horizon, Kattalox, Fedgardia, and Pern in hopes of finding an Easter egg hologram. Finding an unclaimed Easter egg leads to rewards that can be redeemed once the event is over. If you aren't already participating in this event, then I highly recommend you do! It's a fun and competitive event that has great rewards. For more information on this event, visit this forum: http://sentinelcraft.net/forum/index.php?topic=10242.30The following players found an egg this week:
