I tried to give my blacksmith to yo E, but it only allowed 250 of 1000 needed. I'll try again tomorrow. Plus I am doen to 0 bucks because I am contributing to win the guild thingy.
Don't contribute extra for guild challenges, especially if it will make you go bankrupt. Your daily sales are already counted as contributions.

No worries, NH, your help is appreciated. All my shop's improvements are looking great, and lately I've been getting so many customers that I'm having trouble keeping my shelves stocked.

When it comes to blacksmith coop points, I've been maxed out for a while, so if anyone can afford improvements that need blacksmith time, please purchase them so I can spend my accumulated points. I'll try to always have improvements purchased that still need time so that we don't waste accumulated coop points.

RD, you have all four craftsmen now, right? Is that working out well for you? I'm considering adding a tailor, since I have a few armor recipes already, but could be persuaded to go with a sorceress instead if it seems like that would be more helpful for the guild.

Thoughts?

This morning I was still waiting on tailor and sorceress coop points for my Blacksmith's shop. I won't log in agai until I get home from work. So I don't know yet but I was doing ok with 3 and I figured that being able to make all the items people ask for would get me more sales.

Hmm, well I went with the tailor. I'm also in the marketplace area now, since I hit the cap for the city gates. I'm hardly able to keep up with the demand for my blacksmith's most expensive items, which means I'm slowly falling behind on my inventory and don't see how I'll ever have time for research, but at least I'm making a steady profit.

Last I checked we were 2nd in the guild challenge, but the good news is it seems unlikely we'll get lower than 3rd, which means we should get some kind of reward regardless. 1st place has like 100k more than us, while 3rd is only about 40k behind us, last I checked.

Third looks more probably in the guild challenge this time. I wonder how they decide whom our opponents are.

By the way, Araam, when you get on, could you finish my Blacksmith's Workshop for me? 1K Tailor and 1K Sorceress.

Invite sent.

We got 3rd in the guild challenge, scoring us 3 more license points and bringing us to 8 total. The next thing worth spending them on seems to be "Cooperation II" which gives us a high increase in speed of producing items that take two or more craftsmen and high increase in coop point accumulation, and it costs 25. We're currently first in this newest guild challenge that just started.

I'm feeling pretty secure and will probably be able to afford a sorceress workshop soon, but my tailor workshop isn't finished yet, so I guess I'll wait.

Sorry. Haven't been able to get on for a couple days. I should be able to play for quite awhile this afternoon. Hopefully I'll be able to chisel away at my huge improvement backlog.

No problem Al Araam. If possible, could you my Blacksmith's Shop a priority, at least over my smaller improvements?

Sure. Remind me who you need for the blacksmith's shop again.

Tailor is the only one I need left. I think you already gave me the Sorceress points and E or Harumf already took care of the rest.

No problem. Thanks for pitching in on my blacksmith's workshop. I've been making money hand over fist today for some reason, so I imagine I'll be able to pick up my carpenter's workshop soon and enjoy the benefits of having a full shop as well.

Nice! I'm pitching on improvements whenever I get the chance, but after my Blacksmith joined the team, I got a few quests that I hadn't gotten yet because they required the Blacksmith. Some of this quests require a lot of cooperation points, so if I'm putting some toward those too.

Cool. Thanks, guys. I should be purchasing the sorceress workshop pretty soon as well, and once we all have a full shop that should make our guild much more resilient in case one of us gets bored or busy and quits.

We won the challenge. A new one has begun and we are up - but it is way to early to tell.

The guild competition looks like another blowout, half-way through.

Looks like we have another good lead in this guild challenge. We do have one person who seems to be actually participating in this one though.

ASA, what name do you use in the game? E will need to know your name in order to invite you.

Sounds good to me. We're at our current guild cap: 4 out of 4. However, I can spend some of our accumulated license points to upgrade the cap and I'll invite you as soon as I have your name. ^^

I'll prioritize your Tailor shop over the other guys' smaller improvements - I'm sure they will understand.
