[epic] Find a way that players need to work together to achieve a goal

[whitep4nth3r]

Some ideas:

What if players had certain skills. And to do some kinds of cooking, you need to find a player with a certain kind of skill?

I think something location-based would work. we already have a map, so if something is "happening" in the swamp for example, at least X players need to be there and then they would all get an item? maybe kind of "community spawn" events. "A community event is happening in the Swamp! Get there and offer an item to be rewarded!" -> !move swamp -> !offer tomato If total offered amount > 1000 and player count > 5 then unique item gift, else failure.

actually, maybe something with longer reward cycles? claiming, gifting and cooking all have instant rewards. what if something took a lot longer...like planting? !move swamp !plant watermelon seed

sometime n hours/days later in chat

"An irradiated watermelon is ripe for picking in the swamp zone!

!move swamp !claim irradiated watermelon this means you might not be able to claim what you seed, but if no one seeds, you also won't have anything to claim

I quite like the idea of collaborative long term events, kind of like a longer term hype train. Offer 100 fresh herbs in the desert this week. And then if the goal has been reached, rewards are given to everyone that contributed. This would also be a nice way of taking items out of the economy again.
