The Great Australian House Rush: How We're Turning Medium-Sized Cities into the New Sydney Minus the Traffic Jams

Australia, a land vast and diverse, with cities bustling and bursting at their seams. Here we are, at a crossroads, much like that dreaded five-way intersection in Sydney where you’re more likely to meet your maker than make it to work on time. But fear not, for our beloved minister of Everything Important That We Usually Take for Granted (aka Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, and…

So i'm working on a project that involves looking at people's opinions on public transportation, and something that keeps coming up is that a lot of people like the idea of public transportation but ridership is at the same time low, so I wanna figure out what stops people from riding.

If you could reblog this for bigger sample size that would be so so appreciated

The first highrise on the former Water Treatment Plant area in Shinjuku, Tokyo, Japan; circa 1980s. Citizens were really proud of the next-era developments in the city. It featured in numerous mangas, anime series and movies.

"Shinjuku’s skyscraper district is an architectural marvel for the speed with which it was developed. As recently as 1968, the core of Shinjuku’s high rise district was occupied by the Yodobashi Water Purification Plant 淀橋浄水場. Seen here is a map from circa 1945; Shinjuku Station occupies the center of the map, with the water purification plant located to the left (west)"

Above picture is from the 1978 movie The Bad News Bears Go to Japan'. 'The four buildings noted are:

1. Sompo Japan Nippon Koa Credit Corporation (ＳＯＭＰＯクレジット株式会社)

2. Shinjuku Mitsui Building 新宿三井ビルディ

3. Shinjuku Sumitomo Building 新宿住友ビル

4. KDDI Building KDDIビル

As has been stated multiple times on this blog, team members are assigned where their skills are needed.

“Focusing on one game at a time” would not do anything to expedite the final touches on Eureka, because the team member who has moved on to writing things like Silk & Dagger and Death Bed has already done his job on Eureka, which is to write it. The main things being done on the Eureka rulebook right now are editing and visual art, which are not headed by the same team member.

More recently, the lead writer has been called back to Eureka to handle a few rules changes, and to review and provide feedback on some of the fan made adventure modules from the game jam. This is why it is taking the Death Bed alpha so long to come out, which is actually really hurting us.

It is actually because of releasing things like the Silk & Dagger alpha that we have been able to consistently stay afloat, and we could really use the sales boost of releasing the Death Bed alpha, but it just isn’t ready yet. This is also what’s forcing us to create small Eureka expansions like The Fanservice Files, The XXX-Files, and 800 Years or Progress. More eyes on Eureka and more sales coming in in general would free that team member up from having to work on as many short-term mini-projects and allow him to finish the Death Bed alpha, make progress on Silk & Dagger, and even make more progress where needed on Eureka.

If you want Eureka to be finished faster, talk about us more and buy our stuff so that we can work more efficiently without having to worry as much about financial stability.

Eureka: Investigative Urban Fantasy portrays vampires really well for several reasons, but one of my favourites is that being an immortal creature of the night doesn't actually help with most day to day problems (and probably adds several more). Yeah, turn into a truck-sized bat monster all you like; rent is still due first of each month.
