Purge

The Purge is a wasteland filled with opportunity. Opportunity for materials, that is. In order to preserve the state of the Town world, the Purge was created. If you're a Gatherer, you have special access to your own version of the Purge, known as the Gorge.

What Is It?
To be exact, the Purge is a 480x480 box that, unlike the Town world, is filled with resources and minerals. Players can mine things like coal, iron, gold, and much more.

Why Do We Need It?
In any server that has been around for a while, resources are quickly stripped from the world and the finite number of materials makes prices higher than necessary. The Purge is here to solve this problem in that it gives a separate place to mine resources.

What's the Catch?
The Purge is refreshed once every two weeks. Meaning entirely new chunks are generated, new resources are put back into the ground, and it's pristine as when the server first started. This means that players can literally have an endless supply of resources on their hands, allowing for more easy trading of materials, and availability for all.

What's the Other Catch?
Because the Purge is only updated biweekly, resources can run out rather quickly. This means that in order to get the most out of your resource gathering, you'll need to get in early and make sure you mine as much as you can. This also means that resources are still very controlled, in that only a certain number of each material are put back into the market. Economists need to be strategic in pricing, and Gatherers need to use their skills wisely in order to be as efficient as possible.
