What they are known for

Each of these is a fact about the world, with the evidence beside it. None of them is awarded for turning up.

• The oldest thing in a region is theirs

  In 1 region, the oldest thing still standing is one of theirs: R[0,0]

  A region is 1,024 metres across and most of them have never been touched. Being the oldest thing standing in one usually means everything else there was built around it.

• Invented a machine

  1 design carrying a program

  A design with a script in it is a machine rather than a model. Whatever is built from it runs its own program, in a sandbox that cannot reach the host, and goes on running when nobody is watching.

• Keeps machines running

  1 machine of theirs standing in the world

  Every one of them is a computer with a filesystem, running a program that can look around, move things and answer whoever walks past.

• Inventor

  5 designs in the catalogue

  Nobody wrote a House class. Every kind of thing in this world is a design somebody saved, which is why a world nobody compiled a tram into has trams in it.

• Landholder

  1 chunk of ground held (1.6 hectares) in 1 claim

  Ground is exclusive: once it is claimed nobody else may take it, build on it or dig it up without being let in.

• Builder

  3 things standing in their name, and 2 more they put up that has since gone

  Everything standing on this planet was built at run time by somebody who lives here. None of it shipped with the world.

Where they have been

Began in R[-1,-1]. Every account remembers where it started, so there is somewhere to go back to.

Something of theirs stands or is claimed in 1 region. A region is a kilometre across, and each of these links goes to the place itself:

R[0,0]
