Topic I:
By the order of the Council a trial was initiated to test a higher server difficulty. This difficulty was to be evaluated in the 4th session. After a poll was conducted and a vote was held, the Council voted in favor of keeping the higher difficulty as the server standard.

Topic II:
During one of the voice chat sessions it was discussed among members to introduce an 'MVP' rank for players serving the community in exceptional ways. MVP players would get a special prefix and a mention on a memorial plaque. The Council however was very divided on the issue, stating that the introduction of such a rank would violate the equality of all members on the server. The Council voted with 1 vote in favour to introducing such a rank.

Topic III:
During the same mentioned voice chat it was discussed among players that new US moderators ought to be introduced to increase staff availability. Some members suggested that there also should be so-called 'substitute' moderators. These are players with limited powers to maintain order in the server. In the end the Council voted to introduce both new US moderators and, if necessary, introduce substitute moderators.

Topic IV:
Member Paco_The_Taco suggested that a PvP Arena should be built. In this arena, members battle each other for prize money and honor. The Council agreed to the concept and voted that one should be built. The Council did not however specify where this arena should be placed. After the meeting, staff assigned Paco_The_Taco to be project coordinator.

Topic V:
Additional topic by stevethemexican. In the server there has been discussion on what powers mayors should specifically have. The Council specically discussed whether mayors should be elected or not. The Council unanimously voted against making mayors an electable position.

Topic VI:
Additional topic by Paco_The_Taco. For many weeks there has been a lot of discussion on currency conversion rates. Players are having problems determing what prices items should sell for. The existence of multiple currencies complicates these matters further. The Council decided that this topic requires further thought and should be discussed in the 5th session.

Signed,

Lord Moderator Juris_LLM
