DBTSverse Portal base location

In two years time a colony pod, constructed in Pi Square, will be sent north. Rumours are the source of the mysterious bunnies can be found in that region. Where exactly should we send the CP to? I drew eight locations on the screenie below. Please vote for your preferred option. As always, you also have the option to write-in or abstain. You have three days to vote before this referendum closes.

I voted for light blue, but I'm not too fussed so long as it's not on white, grey or red.

It'd be nice to have one south of red too.

I hope someone else votes in the poll... Currently light blue and yellow both have one vote.

red

(then we can fit in another base at blue: let's just try this ridiculously close spacing up there please, i won't make you do it elsewhere

)

So long as we get two bases in there, and you can't see 2 bases in any of their zones, I don't really care. Red and blue sounds fine to me.

Are you sure blue is a good place for a second base? We would be building over the only rolling rainy tile in the area.

Method · July 25, 2003, 18:24

if it was me, i'd probably be foresting the crap out of every tile, rolling/rainy or not

Method · July 25, 2003, 18:25

by the way, if we're just going to put 1 base up there, put me down for yellow instead.

I vote for Yellow (and one base). I think we should give the bunnies room to burrow without affecting our foundations too much, and it's not like we're short of room. Yellow gives us nuts and mins and uses up all the squares. Besides, we'll have sea if we want to expland too, and much energy from it

If we need the room, we can try to squash another in there, but I don't see us needing too. We have enough land.

Maniac · July 26, 2003, 07:48

Then yellow it will be? Does there need to be another poll for a second base here?

Method · July 26, 2003, 10:14

IMO, there's no room for another if we build on yellow.

Chaunk · July 26, 2003, 11:03

West of white would be alright I think, especially if we raise the land arround it eventually.

Maniac · July 26, 2003, 11:07

My thought exactly.

DeathByTheSword · July 26, 2003, 12:11

i have voted light gray but i am probably to late after i read the posts above

Method · July 26, 2003, 12:42

normally i'd say light grey too, but i'd rather the base be coastal.

Drogue · July 26, 2003, 19:08

I think leave it with one base. There isn't the room/need for another yet. If there is later, we can raise the terrain, but without that tech, i think it really isn't worth it.
