Land Grab 2008 Rules
27 Feb 2008
1. Any designated land grab area can be claimed by any functioning, non-pending, society. (Note that it takes seven days go get a society into a qualified state).
2. Any person within a society can claim a piece of land in the name of the whole society. The land is claimed by finding a 'claim stake' for a certain piece of land. Click on the stake and follow the instructions presented.
3. The land has to be successfully defended for four consecutive hours before the ownership of the land is turned over to the society for a period of six months.
4. Defence of the land is achieved in the following manner: At least one member of the society will have to be alive and present within a radius of 30 meters from the claim stake at all times from when the land is claimed until the full time period has elapsed. If all Society members have exited the radius, the stake will emit a warning signal (sound and light) for a limited period of time. This is a short grace period of app. 30 seconds, during which any living society member has to get inside the radius; else the claim for the land will be lost. This enables another society, or the same society for that matter, to take new ownership of the land claiming process.
5. Anyone killed within a certain range from the claim stake during the land grab will be out of commission for five minutes before the revival process is initiated. The only way to speed this process is to be resurrected using MindForce.
6. A single society may only have one piece of land within a claiming process at a time.
7. Pets are not allowed on the Land Grab land areas during the event.
