LAND Sale improvements

Following feedback, we received from the community we have decided to tweak how our LAND sales are operated. The main goal with these changes is to ensure that, from here on out, our LAND sales run smoother and are fairer to everyone:

  • Our server capacity will be updated to handle the number of users simultaneously present on the map.
  • Extra security checks on Cloudflare Enterprise CDN to make sure all transactions are human.
  • Starting on Wave 3: to improve map loading, we will be creating a new view on the map that only loads the area of the sale. (see below)
  • Starting on wave 4 at the earliest: We will start testing a queueing system that will make LAND distribution fairer so that the speed of clicking is no longer the main criterion to get a LAND. This new feature will require heavy testing and won’t be implemented during this third wave.
