As announced previously, we will have a new wave of plot cleaning to remove “inactive” plots from some areas. The goal is to free up space in highly populated areas, so that more of you will be able to place plots alongside your friends and clans..
This cleaning session will happen on August 21 - and the plot selection will happen on August 19. You have until August 19 to ensure your plot will not be released according to the criteria below.
This time, we’ll focus on unused plots from players who have stopped playing early in the game.
To ensure we do not remove one of the plots that you strategically placed but have not used so far - for various reasons - check our criteria for deletion below:
Deletion criteria
Summary:
We will select plots that meet either of the following:
The plot owner has been inactive for a while, with minimal activity (both in playing time and interactions such as pieces and crafting events), and the clan size is small.
OR
The plot is essentially inactive, with no pieces or crafting events at all in recent times, and the clan size is small.
The criteria below are cumulative and all conditions need to be met for the plot to be deleted:
First set of conditions
- The character that owns the plot has not been active in the past 28 days (since July 22).
- The character that owns the plot has played for less than 120 minutes in total.
- The total number of crafting events on the plot is less than 50 overall, AND the number of crafting events in the past month is less than 20, AND the number of crafting events in the past 2 weeks is less than 2. To repeat: all points need to be met to qualify for deletion.
- The total number of pieces placed on the plot is less than 40, AND the number of pieces added in the past month is less than 20, AND the number of pieces added in the past 2 weeks is less than 2. To repeat: all points need to be met to qualify for deletion.
- AND the character owning the plot is not part of any clan or part of a clan with two or more members.
We’re adding a second set of criteria to plots which would have gotten through the first selection, in order to ensure we can reclaim plots that are inactive. This second set of criteria is NOT cumulative with the first set.
Second set of conditions
- The total number of pieces on the plot is 0, AND the number of pieces added in the past month is 0.
- The total number of crafting events on the plot is 0, AND the number of crafting events in the past month is 0.
- AND the character owning the plot is not part of any clan or part of a clan with two or more members.
If you think one of your plots falls in the “to be deleted category”, ensure you log in to the game before August 19, place a building piece and/or craft an item using a crafter placed on that plot.
Let us know if you have any questions.
Pax vobiscum,
