A month ago Moonglow Baja had less that 275 trade deliveries delivered since the beginning of the program and the city was struggling financially. Today it hit the 900 mark! This is an incredible gift to the city and apparently some worked so hard to achieve this. In less than a month over 700 trade deliveries were done. I will not take credit for this as I've done maybe 75 since I've taken on the Governorship a month ago and I only do trade quests for cities that have Governors who have ongoing trade deals.
A few of us on Baja, a small shard, typically will call out in GC something about the quest we're on and make a comment questioning why a certain Governor needs leather skirts or explosion pots, all in good fun and what they rewarded us with. And then it's not uncommon for someone to ask what we're doing and how. So we teach and now the Governors have help and people know they're helping.
Things I've noticed as well as others remarking upon.... It's now not uncommon for people on the roads traveling from city to city to see others on the road or running from shop to shop buying the needed items. There are boats on the water passing each other, with people in them. People you don't know, haven't met, didn't take the time etc, are now acknowledging each other and opening up. I'm starting to see more players on the shard.
So now that things have simmered down and I've eased into what it is rather than wishing for what I 'think' it should be or what I want it to be, I'm trying to go with the flow of what happens and just enjoy it for what it is.
The reward is something greater than pixel crack(in my book anyways), it's building a community.
Just an observation from my own perspective on something that interests me.
Kind regards,
AW
