Hey folks

In order to clarify some info regarding questions already emailed to me about these...

As may already be obvious, several private properties will be auctioned off in the auction section of EG:

• 3-4 brand new properties that are being designed by some of our very creative GMs and will be located in various parts of Elanthia;
• A new breed of property that will just "move" you to happy heights of joy because it's kinda nifty. There will be a hefty minimum bid on this;
• Prime: Manor Olea (aka Island Oasis), located on Teras, will be auctioned off as custom re-design.;
• Plat: vacant property (never released to Plat before) located in Solhaven, will be auctioned off as a custom re-design.

We'll have more exact details for you on all of the properties (locations, whether any others have minimum bids, etc.) as we get further along.

The question of 'if I already own a property, can I own a second property, even if it's with another character?' has already come up. The answer is: No, you cannot -- private properties are limited to one property per player. If you own another property and you want to own one of the new ones, you may certainly bid on those going out during the auction, but if you win, you will automatically forfeit ownership of your current property (you will not get a choice -- this is automatic -- since you'll have taken the chance of winning away from someone else.) Hopefully that clarifies that for my current property owners who have been inquiring!

> Questions regarding will the one-per-person policy be changed to one-per-account.

No, this policy will not be changed. I believe it's actually the only hard-lined 'item' that we have in game that falls under this policy, and there's no overwhelming reason to change it -- one property per player should be more than enough in order to actually be able to spread these out a little. We're pretty good about allowing multi-accounters fair access with all of their accounts to events and items -- this particular exception, however, will be maintaining its status.
