Feb 1, 2006 - cche takes over as Mayor! Other shifts in job assignments are likely, stay tuned.
June 2005 - hweller replaced swerdna as Ambassador, also several of our game rooms have been deactivated to save on maintenance
May 1, 2005 - BSW Metagame Changes - As of May 1, 2005 there will be a significant change in the way the town needs to be run. We respectfully request that all citizens that haven't moved into either a farm house or a townhouse, do so before the changes take effect. People living in the streets will cost the town additional maintenance.

These changes make it necessary to consider deactivating game rooms. This would not be our first choice, but with game room maintenance costs, we may have no choice. Please be aware, we will need to be monitoring the numbers of games played over coming months, in order to determine which rooms are most used. If your favorite game is in our town, play it here if possible, please!

April 23rd, 2005 - We have a newly updated .PROP file for your use.
April 2005 - Our Town Hall is built! It also opened a new office of ambassador in town. swerdna stepped into that new role and one of our newest citizens (Emerald_Boar) became our Treasurer.
As of early April, 2005, Burgundy Ridge now has a Town Hall (with our very special thanks to our friends in English town...). This means that citizens are now free to join a guild (/accedeguild yourname) whenever they wish.
March 1st, 2004 - Build block lifted. Several New games added to the town since then.
February 1st, 2004 - rwickstrom becomes mayor and over the next few days shuffles his cabinet: NiteArtist remains Deputy Mayor, swerdna becomes Treasurer, and Bernard becomes Security Chief
February 1st, 2004 - Citizenship Policy Changes are enacted.

In the summer of 2003, Sorntelli (our founding mayor) unveiled her plan for the town:

Our town was founded in December of 2002. In the summer of 2003, the town looked like this:
