Evoke Network Happenings: Week 1
A few links worth spreading around:
First off, some Agents are starting Guilds that will act as communities of practice within the game. As an engineer, I'll gladly associate with the Makers Guild.
Would there be interest in starting a Hacker's Guild (for those whose building materials are of the more abstract, mathematical sort)? Or is there too much overlap between that and the above?
Guilds:
Makers Guild
Education Guild
AWAKE
Evoke Librarians
A few other things worth looking at:
Urgent Evoke Wiki (off-site)
Jane McGonigal's Site (from the mind that brought us Evoke)
Why This Isn't a Game (per se, that link is my nomination for Alchemy's Challenge)
E.V.O.K.E.? (Emergency Volunteer Organization of Knowledge and Expertise?)
On Knowledge-Trading Zones (how can feedback be more useful?)
On Mentoring (key if we want to keep game expanding beyond Week 1)
Agent Evokes:
INVOKE1: The Profiteers
GAME1: Evoke Powers
Alchemy's Challenges:
NEXTSTEP: Inspiration From the Network
NEWSKILL: Spread the Learning
The Central Story:
Tokyo Tool Kit
All You Need to Know About Citizen X (though probably not actually all)
What are some of the coolest things you've found in and around the Evoke Network in Week 1?

I am trying to get the word out about how we can support newcomers as this game gets more massive and more overwhelming.

O.O I'm an aspiring writer, and the book I am working on now has a 'Maker's Guild'. Creepy. This is an awesome post though; I'm a little overwhelmed, and don't feel like I have as much time to work on EVOKE as some people. Thanks for this!

The food actually tasted fresher than in the past and was easy to keep fueled.Dad was very proud of the solar hybrid…See More
Stinging Nettle
In this blog post I will focus on a plant that is abundant in our nature, and which is immensely nutritious. It's of course the Stinging Nettle. Let's start with the chemical constituents of this plant:37 % Non-Nitrogen-Extracts19 - 29 % Ash9 - 21 % Fiber4 % Fat22 % ProteinOnce the leaves are drid, their protein content can reach an astounding 40 %, which is much higher than beef, which even under the best of circ**stances can never exceed 31 % protein. In addition the Stinging Nettle consists…See More

Future
FutureToday is 2020/1/1. It is just like yesterday. The war is still continuing. It has started since 2010. In 2010, that year was a horrible year. Almost every energy ran out. Every country’s governments were crushed down at the same time. There were riots everywhere. All of the big company’s bosses were killed xdeadx in the riots. Troops fought each other everywhere. Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More
public servants
The exchange works directly for state and public workers and servants. It gives them credit in exchange for the amount of public work they contribute to the community. The more constructive they are based off a base rate the more credit they recieve.
