:*A fixed number of towers will be built all at the same time.  Doing this allows more towers to be built, as a group can accomplish more than an individual.  The number of towers is decided by the Elders/Patriarchs, and is based on the amount of materials needed; The faster the towers can be built, the better.  For example, the first group will build the pump, and 20 towers.

:*Individuals may opt to build in a position based on their contribution points.  e.g., the more contributions an individual makes, the more points they will earn, the earlier they may build in the build order.  If an individual passes on their right to build a tower before other members (assuming they have earned more points than the other members), they may build a tower at any point in the tower order beyond their forgone position.
 
:*Once all pump/towers/upgrades have been built, the Patriarchs of the SA Waterworks will actively recruit suitable Patriarchs to take their position as Patriarchs from outside the Guild.  Once this is done, the new Patriarchs will actively recruit new Members to form a new 20 (or less) individual group for the next set of towers/upgrades.  Members who could not build during the previous group will have their points carried over to the new group.
 
:*At this point, previous Patriarchs and Members are considered retired.  Retired Members may quit the guild, or if they wish to remain in the guild for the social atmosphere, continued donations to new members, etc., they may be moved to Kinsman status.  Retired Patriarchs may keep their position if they intend to keep working, or be demoted to Kinsman.  Elders will remain in their role so that SA Waterworks to manage memberships, and will advise new members when possible.

As a summary of our system, only those who contribute enough points for the top 20 positions will build towers.  The other members who could not build towers will save their points for the next group of 10-20 playersThe current leadership of SA Waterworks will also have to pass off the leadership to others if they did not build a tower themselves, so those who do not make the first 20 cut, will also be considered to lead the next group.

Unlike the previous group, Group B will be a '''set''' group of 21 players.  Other members may contribute for points.  If a member that is not in Group B contributes, their points will count towards their future group (if they have not built a tower yet).  Points for Group B members will determine their build order.  Elders reserve the right to take players out of the group for replacement.
 
  
At build time, members have 72 hours to get in touch with an Elder or Patriarch to build, or their spot may be forfeited.  Forfeited spots may be built later if there is a spot left (there normally would be a spot left for Group B members).  This is to avoid holding up the rest of the chain.  Elders/Patriarchs will attempt to give advance notice of build time, but it is the responsibility of each member to watch the wiki, and know when build time is approaching.

===New Members/Group C Expectations===
 
SA Waterworks is currently accepting applications for new members.  We have a 400 foot pump in SA, and the first 20 towers have been raised to their max height.  We are soon building another 20 towers for our existing Group B players!  Membership costs are currently 2000 boards, 4000 bricks, and 50 canvas (the boards and bricks pay for the GH upgrade, and the canvas will contribute towards our cistern upgrade).  Must be level 17 to apply (exceptions may be made if you are working hard towards 17).  New members will be waiting for the existing Group B members to build (we should be done in a week or two), however we may still need to replace some members of Group B, so if you have concrete or cut stone handy, let us know when you apply.  Something to be aware of when applying: historically, we have built in groups.  e.g. we build towers when all of the materials have been collected for everyone to build at the same time.  We may or may not be changing this to an individual basis.  Please be aware that we may be in a transitional phase!  For more information about the guild, please read our Expectations page on the wiki.  To apply, stash your Membership Fee in the Stash Warehouse (next to the GH in SA, north of the CS: 1560, 1945), and chat Daniels, Robare, or Aplus.
