+1. I believe he could be up to the task. 

Fair enough, looking forward to it!

Aussie here. I've just started up in Abresi. As for the 4.0 Aussietown idea, sounds cool, but i am not sure how well it would interact with other towns/ neighbours. It would be bad if it ended up being that no one else knew what we were, or saw us because they were on a different times. It might be good to have a few americans/europeans to help with this? Still a cool i dea though. Maybe we could all join Alras and help out there?

Hello Good Sir.

In my time as a farmer I have seemed to come across such vegetables that you described quite often. About two dozen of my potatoes have turned green and poisonous, and I would be happy to get them off my hands. Shall we meet up and decide upon the finer details?

Hello Foalin,

 I have just over 9 bundles of bones, both heavy and normal which i have gathered over time from my animal farm. I would very much like to sell them to you as I have almost no use for them. ((Contact me in-game so we can meet and talk prices/delivery.))\

*A sign is posted on an old, abandoned looking building that rests along the Anthos Highway near the Cloud Temple.*

To the owner/s of this establishment, please show proof of residency or ownership in order to keep it from being claimed and re purposed by the nearby community of StoneBrooke. Unfortunately the names labelled of the establishment's name and its owner have long been eroded ((someone broke the signs)) and this is the only sensible way to contact anyone with a possible claim to ownership of the building. From memory it was a 'House for the Homeless' or something of that sorts, but has remained vacant for over and elven month.

Its unsightly nature has caused it to already undergo some minor construction, as seen on the building's surface, but an elven week from today will be given to wait for a response before complete renovation is preformed. 

-Farmer  Dink Smallwood ((DinkSmallwood44))

((Structure will be converted into townhall/hotel if not claimed, and the cranes/scafolds seen in the screenshots below have been added to make it look sightly less unattractive while we wait for a response.))

((The inside is mosty bare, but does have numerous rooms with a chest and a workbench in each. Most doors are locked with 'magic'))

*A response is posted above Spike's note.*

Aye sir, I could sell you some of my livestock, I have sheep and cattle abundant. Come to my farmstead to decide on the prices and organise the livestock movement. 

((I will /msg you ingame if we are online at the same time to tell you where I am.))

*Upon seeing the reply on the notice board Dink responds*

Applicant Name: [Farmer] Dink Smallwood
 

Race and Age: Human, 21
 

What title are you applying for? (A lower-tiered one: Librarian, Maven, Inventor, Analyst, Phrenal): Analyst in the Department of Naturalism.

List any experience you have had with matters regarding that Department: I am a skilled and experienced farmer, but also a capable builder and architect. I have begun to write a series of Farming Guide books, the first one is published in the library.  

Describe the reason for your interest in that position (>5 sentences): I am interested in joining the Ministry as it will offer me a place and a community in which I can further my own knowledge, and spread the knowledge that I already have. I have lived near the head quarters for some time and have always been a friendly neighbour, willing to help a hand and to learn from members. I have of recently become associates with Savant Tenshar, and through our conversations I have come to appreciate the works of the Ministry and the great goal that it has. I believe that a future for myself lies in the study of Naturalism, helping to expand new horizons and possibilities in the field, and that I would be an asset to the Ministry of Contemplation.

By applying, should you be accepted you are expected to utterly adhere to the Common Clauses. Do you understand this?: Yes, I understand and agree wholeheartedly.
