== Guidelines ==In [[Zone]]s is an important game element in ''[[Turf]]'' and in order to increase the transparency a bit and make it more clear how the [[zone makers ]] work, here are the most important guidelines on zone making.
The zones are without doubt the most important assets of the game.
 === What is a zone and how do we position is itpositioned? ===
A zone is supposed to be a special place that that gives a value to the user. This is accomplished in different ways, but it is important to understand that a zone is not just something we throw out anywhere without thinking.
We accomplish this in different ways: by giving the zone a unique and good name, by placing the zone in a beautiful/well known/well defined place.
For example, zones in a beautiful park, near a train station [[trainstation]] or in the town square are well placed zones. Another type of zone is a zone that connects to other zones, a transit/filling zone if you like. This kind of zone may not always be beautiful, but it has another kind of value for the [[turfer]].
=== Size/Structure ===
Mobile GPS is not always very accurate.
It is important to remember that the zones should normally be accessible during all seasons (a few exceptions are okay). But this doesn't mean that all zones should be easy to take.
 === Naming ===
As said before the name is very important.
The local language may be used, even "Englishified" if appropriate.
==== Good names ====
* GlobeZone
* BirdSongZone (next to the street Fågelsångsvägen)
==== Bad names ====
* AutobansHillZone
* 1337ZoNe
=== Bad zone locations ===
The following locations are not valid and any such zone should be reported to the [[zone makers]http://issues.turfgame.com/zones Issue-web]!
* Zones inside or very close to kindergartens.
* Places that cost a lot of money to access (a few exceptions are okay) or are accessible only by a few persons, like someone's workplace.
