With the introduction of snitch mechanics we can now cover the entire city with no more than 50 (we can get just the important roads with 22) snitches. we only need one snitch to cover each of these areas.

• 16 blocks/districts - these are people houses, business, and land, discussion below
• 10 intersections (including nether portal).
• 24 roads (12 if we only use roads that connect intersections.)

The question is do we want to cover this entire area. If one resident does not wish to be part of the network, they will contentiously set off the snitch under their block. I don't think this will be as big of an issue with he roads, but griefers don't alway use roads.

I feel the only way to practically monitor every single section of nine would be to make everyone join the snitch net. I would like to not force everyone to be a member of the snitch network, but honestly the more of us there are the less Spam we will get. We must decide, monitor only the roads, or make everyone join the snitch net(I am against this). also remember they will not be able to leave the block without showing up on a road/intersection snitch.

We also need to make useful naming conventions for these snitch areas. each major road will have 4 snitches(one between each intersection), how do we convey where the snitch is located on that road. as for the inter sections we are fortunate in that we can use the cardinal direction of the intersections as there name, with one being named portal.

thoughts?

We have obsidian for 22 snitches, and the wood too.

now we need 22 diamonds, 132 iron.
