Torbes Magazine

=== Overview ===
Torbes Magazine (publications) was a magazine started by Sabriner and heavily inspired by the American financial / business magazine Forbes. Torbes was intended to inform players about top businesses on Townscraft, index player wealth and the economy, and be a fun graphic design project. After doing a piece on APC, APC's owner kuroplayer and Akatsuuki joined Sabriner at Torbes. A special shout-out to kuro, who was going to college for marketing and had the actual photoshop skill to improve upon Sabriner's original magazine covers.
=== First Issue ===
The first edition of Torbes magazine featured the player xSweety of Dustpeaks, a businessman who dealt with rare commodities such as beacons and wither skulls. After surveying the population at the time of June 2020, xSweety was determined to be the wealthiest player on the server, and so the first Torbes magazine cover was dedicated to him. 
The photograph was taken by Sabriner on top of a stack of Sweety's many diamond blocks and in the arena Sweety was working on at Dustpeaks (the dome roof can be seen in the background). This issue was intended for release on June 18, 2020.
=== Second Issue ===
After surveying the wealth of Townscraft, Sabriner was astonished to find that Pope Spankingnuns, lead builder of the first Roman Catholic Church, had managed to lose a significant portion of his wealth. Even more astonishing was that Spankingnuns had mined the majority of his diamonds. This made him a figure of great interest to Torbes.
The photograph was taken by Sabriner outside of the church on the steps, when the structure was in its infancy. This issue was intended for release on June 25, 2020.
=== Third Issue ===
The third and final issue covered the masterminds behind APC, kuroplayer and Akatsuuki. APC was special in that the business was not affiliated with any town, instead having its own nether tunnel and location. The store specialized in selling enchanted books and other useful materials, bringing in significant revenue. Although the price of books paled in comparison to Sweety's beacons and skulls, APC was not far behind in revenue. And where it lacked in profit, it could have been argued that APC was the most influential business on the server due to its widespread popularity and customer base.
The photograph was taken by Sabriner outside of the APC store, featuring kuroplayer and Akatsuuki in special skins with suits. The photo was taken at night to accentuate the vivid lime green of the APC brand. This issue was intended for release on July 2, 2020. 
=== End of Torbes ===
Torbes had a limited run, especially after its founder Sabriner stopped playing Minecraft for several months and her colleagues permanently left the server due to disagreements with 2b2town players. The publication's return is hampered by Sabriner no longer having a photoshop subscription and kuroplayer (who touched up Sabriner's original covers) being absent. However, Townscraft's economy has certainly developed in the time since, and should Torbes make a return there would be a lot to cover.
=== Original Covers ===
The covers kuroplayer created were not widely seen by the public. These are the covers old Townscraft players would be more familiar with.
