A Taxon by any other name, and so on and so forth
Here are the first changes implemented, effective as of the backdated post set to January 1st:
* THERE ARE NO HATCHES. That's right, folks, no more star trek replicators for yoooou. Of course, this means characters can't get hold of things as easily as before, but will have to actually go out into the city and interact with their enforced environment. There are shops and corner stores here and there, but they are all of the smaller, more niche'd variety. No more gigantic mall where you can buy anything and everything (though the bazaar is still around).
* Currency can now be exchanged between citziens! Characters will find a new app on their tablet called 'BankBuddy' which shows a character's credit balance, lists a history of transactions (currently 0, of course), and lets characters transfer credits to other character's BankBuddy accounts.
* The north side of the city is currently an impenetrable wall of mist, through which characters can only glimpse hints of vague, mirage-like structures in the distance. If you have played or seen footage of the Assassins Creed game series, this wall of mist works similarly to the walls of weird, fog like code seen all over the place. You can approach it, touch it, but you can't go through no matter how hard you try.

Dien and I are currently putting together a revised FAQ with all the details, as well as a comprehensive overview of Taxon's new look. For now, here is the new map, and a brief run-down of the different districts as well as info on the lay of the new land.
In the meantime, as everything begins to slowly come together, please don't hesitate to leave questions, comments or general feedback-y goodness right here and we'll get back to you asap!
